A Year ago, Jacques Villeneuve... Vegas was his debut in Truck Series
Sept. 17, 2008
I was just reviewing the Entry List for Craftsman Truck Race in Vegas and can't help but take a walk down memory lane.
Jacques Villeneuve Vegas debut! Fans were excited.
JV qualified 7th and finished the race 21st. A great debut and we thought from there on, he would never stop racing in Nascar.
Well, that didn't quite happen but it will.
I'm looking forward to watching the Truck race this week. Certainly they will mention Jacques' performance last year. :-)
And, in the meantime, JVistes around the WWW don't lose faith that JV will be back in Nascar soon.
The Phoenix will rise again. :-)
Have a great race weekend!

I was just reviewing the Entry List for Craftsman Truck Race in Vegas and can't help but take a walk down memory lane.
Je regardais la liste des participants pour la course Craftsman Truck à Vegas en fds et je me souviens...
Jacques Villeneuve Vegas! Les Fans vibraient.
JV ce qualifie 7ième et finis sa première course Truck, 21ième. Un super début et on pensaient le revoir régulièrement et pour longtemps en series Nascar.
J'ai hâte à la course Truck. Surement les annonceurs parlerons de la performance de Jacques l'an passé. :-)
Peut être pas ce qui c'est passé mais ca s'en viens.
Entre temps, les JVistes à travers le WWW ne perdent pas espoir que JV sera de retour en Nascar bientôt.
The Phoenix will rise again. :-)
Bonne fin de semaine de course Nascar.

Back to Vegas Baby, Nascar 2008
Great Sprint Cup race yesterday in Vegas. My Carl won. :-)
And, Mike Skinner finished the race in Jacques #27 car. That's great news.
It's important to keep the car in the races let alone qualify. The seat is being kept warm for Jacques Villeneuve's return.
Atlanta is next and hopefully by then, BDR will have news about the cars 2008 season with JV.

Mike Skinner did a good job yesterday qualifying the #27 for Las Vegas race tomorrow. If Jacques has the opportunity to make a few races if not find a full sponsor, the #27 needs to qualify and finish races in the meantime.
BDR is stuck between a rock and a hard spot. :-)
But, I am a true believer that it will all work out for Bill and Jacques.
Thanks Mike for the good job done yesterday. It's experience under your belt and you're helping the Team. I'm impressed so far with your opinion or lack of comments on the issue.

Mike Skinner a fait du bon boulot hier pour se qualifier dans la #27 pour la course demain a Vegas. Si Jacques a l'opportunitee de faire quelques courses si pas trouver un sponsor pour faire sa saison Sprint 2008, la #27 a besoin de se qualifier et finir des courses.
BDR est prit entre une roche et un mur de bricke.
Mais, je crois que les choses vont bien se regler pour Bill et JV.
Entre temps, merci Mike pour le bon travail. C'est de l'experience sous ta ceinture et tu aides ton Equipe. Cela m'impressione, et, tu demontres une maturitee et professionalisme quand tu partages ton opinion ou, fait le contraire, et choisit de ne rien predire.

Wow, can't believe it's been a whole year since Jacques first Craftsman Truck 2007 race in Vegas.
What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. lol
Sorry, just can't help myself. In Villeneuve's case, I want to talk about it. A year ago, he started 7th in first Nascar race and he finished it too.
Fans around the globe were so hoping to see Jacques at every Sprint Cup 2008 race. He didn't make Daytona, hired BG and new PR Team, and has taken a serious look at making things right for a very long career in Nascar.
Jacques! Are you on your way to Vegas??
Still no news from BDR camp. No announcements as to who will be driving the #27 this week. Keep the faith JVistes!
Best of luck to all and if not this week... he'll be there soon.

Wow, c'est pas croyable que ca fait deja un an depuis sont debut en Nascar, Craftsman Truck 2007 a Vegas.
Ce qui ce passe a Vegas, reste a Vegas. :-)
Veuillez m'excuser car j'ai pas pu m'empecher... Dans le cas de Villeneuve, je veux n'en parler. Il y a un an Jacques c'est qualifier 7ieme et a finit la course Truck.
Touts les fans esperaient voir Jacques a toutes les courses Sprint Cup 2008. Il ne fait pas la Daytona, engage BG et une nouvelle equipe pour l'entourer, et il a serieusement regarde comment faire comme il le faut pour une tres longue carriere en Nascar.
Jacques! Es-tu enroute vers Vegas?? :-)
Aucune nouvelles encore du camp BDR. Pas d'annonces de celui qui coursera la #27 cette semaine. Gardez espoirs les JVistes!
Meilleur des chances a tous et si pas cette semaine... il y sera bientot.
Jacques Villeneuve Vegas Baby! First official Truck Race 2007
Jacques Villeneuve finishes 21st in Las Vegas 350.
He started 7th(great qualifying) and despite a little hit, he was able to finish his first Craftsman Truck Series Race.
By the end of the race, he was moving up and increasing speeds again. A few fantastic and exciting moments of him in a row of 3 and taking it. :-)
Good job Jacques Villeneuve.
See you in Talladega Baby!

Jacques Villeneuve a termine 21ieme au Las Vegas 350.
Il a partit 7ieme(super qualifs) et une petite touchette ne l'a pas empeche de finir sa premiere course Craftsman Truck. Et c'etait justement cela que JV devait faire.
Des laps couru et une course terminee, "That is the job I have to do today". And, "pay attention to mistakes". :-)
Vers la fin de cette course, Jacques roulait plus vite et un moment donne, nous a fait fremir... 3 cote-a-cote, et il prend le devant. :-)
Bonne Course Jacques!
On se voit a Talladega Baby!
Jacques Villeneuve qualifies 7th. Bravo!
Jacques time: 31.072/173 miles per hour avg.
Had a short and sweet interview about Qualifying and new job. :-) Found Qualifying tough but happy with his performance and sitting 7th.
Anxious to run the race and a bit nervous about being in the pack. Give him a few laps and he'll be fine. He's very focused and knows it's about making laps.
JVistes know he'll do much much more.
See you at the finish line!

Temps: 31.072/173 miles a l'heure.

Nous les JVistes, savons qu'il fera beaucoup mieux que cela!
On se revoit a la ligne d'arrivee!

Jacques Villeneuve Vegas Baby!
Sept. 17,
Well, officially, Jacques Villeneuve's in Vegas Baby! and he's begun his 'job' in Nascar.
Was seen Sunday in Vegas signing autographs. Also heard rumors he had alot of recorded interviews and marketing work for Nascar to do. These guys work hard on and off the track.
And... It's Vegas Baby!
The teams are parking their vans as we speak. And, believe it or not, the tailgate party has begun for diehard fans. These last races are kinda like the 'chase'.
Little do they expect the guy they'll be chasing is Jacques Villeneuve. He'll be rookie of the year!
Let's go to Vegas Baby!
