Well, testing started in Vegas today and unfortunately I can’t talk about it because , “what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas!”
Briefly, here is what unfolded:
- Denny Hamlin, in his Toyota, put up the quickest time on a very windy track.
- There were only 3 Fords in the top 25; Kenseth in 3rd, Biffle in 22nd, and Kvapil in 25th.
- Not to be out done by Ford, Dodge only had 3 of their cars in the top 31; Sadler in 9th, Newman in 20th, and Busch in 31st.
- 8 of the top 25 are Toyotas, and 12 are Chevys.
I wonder if there is really some sand bagging by the Ford and Dodge teams, or if they are truly struggling on the speed charts.
One more interesting development that happened just recently is that Jacques Villeneuve and his long-time business manager Craig Pollock have parted ways. The split between the two seems to be amicable siting that Pollock wants to spend more time with his family in Monaco and not in North America for 36 racing weekends. Go here for the entire article.
Finally, and more importantly for you Stewart fans, how do you like the new paint?
