PS: jaques villeneuve at 160 MPH?! wtf was he doign out there?

He's doing some Cup testing, and I believe, running the last 5 (?) Cup
races this year, getting ready for 2008. I think that's what I read,
but I could be wrong.

Regardless of what JPM has done for the cup series, I find him
extremely entertaining during interviews, almost worth the price of
admission, so to speak. ;-)

I would like Villaneuve better if he would (1) shave, and (2) get his
teeth whitened. (Apropos of not much, I don't know why more men don't
see how discolored their teeth are - women certainly do. There was a
front-page picture of an older coach at foxsports.com yesterday, and
man, his teeth were the same color you'd find on an Egyptian mummy!
Dude! Look in a mirror! Uck.)

I thought that was Franchitti who was going to run Cup races (CoT
only) with Villeneuve running ARCA/CTS/BGN events for seat time. Was
Villeneuve (hardest name to type since Allmendinger) supposed to run
Cup too?

I too enjoy JPM's interviews. His interview Saturday had to be the
most upbeat I've ever seen with somebody who just crawled out of a
burning car, to say nothing of having a respectable run ended by
someone else's mistake.
