Patrick
Veillette Started his online career with Nascar Racing 3 and GPL. "I
had fun but I was dreaming of a Nascar game with GPL Physics engine..."
So
when Mtlnascar.com
, a French Canadian league started a series with Nascar Racing 4 , Patrick began
league racing there ... Since 2001 Pat has completed more than 17,000 laps with
mtlnascar, and scored 54 Poles and won 4 championships .
Patrick
is now Administrator for several online series in Quebec "I
always tried to help guys from Quebec be faster and I enjoy some great
relationships with many of them"
Pat
is also a musician and enjoys playing drum... Finding time to play drum between
two NASCAR practices is becoming an issue he says: "This
is a bit exaggerated but yes most of my time right now I spend racing online"
On a
side note, the first time Patrick met with ROL Touring Car founder Gilles
Mourette was just before the 2002 "Bullrun 1000". "Gilles
and Eric Leblanc had plans to run a Corvette in this prestigious event, but Eric
had a last minute problem and could not make it. He told Gilles I could
run instead, and here we went. This was a great race and we did pretty
good. I think we ended up 8th overall !".
Patrick
Veillette also drives the #14 NAPA Mercedes CLK fielded by Quebec
Racing in the 2003 ROL Touring Car Championship. After seeing
Pat win the practice sprint race at Kyalami in February, there is no doubt he is
going to be one of the title contenders in both the ROL CUP Series and the ROL
Touring Series.
