A new Canadian team, who wants to drive full time in NASCAR Nationwide Series next year, is trying to hire Jacques Villeneuve and Andrew Ranger for the 2012 season. According to the Journal de Montreal, an Ontario businessman had begun discussions with two Quebecers to compose a duo of drivers. This man would count on the support of entrepreneurs known in order to build a budget. Villeneuve was involved in two Nationwide races this season against four Ranger. “It’s definitely a little bit faster because you start to talk about it. The owner has great projects for next year. But there are things to watch with sponsors. Financially, too, because like it or not, it’s still a series that costs a lot money. With two cars on the track, it can cost even more.I think we have good contacts and discussions with them now” Ranger told RDS.(RDS.ca) translated using Google translate.(8-22-2011)
