ConectUS Wireless Sponsors JJ Yeleys NASCAR Cup Series Race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway
After J.J.’s outstanding effort at Las Vegas Motor Speedway last year, ConectUS asked if we could sponsor him again this October 15th. And… he said YES!!
J.J. is having a great year. Although he has never won a Cup Series race, he’s described by SpeedSport as “NASCAR’s Underrated Mainstay.” That is, he’s very dependable. On a limited budget, he consistently performs at the top of the third quartile.
We were so impressed with him last October. If you did not see last year’s Cup Series race, search on YouTube for “J. J. Yeley at Las Vegas Motor Speedway: Post-Race Interview.” It was awesome. J.J.’s rear left tire deflated and disintegrated on Turn 3, putting him into a spectacular spin that was replayed several times on national television. Yet J.J. controlled the car superbly and made it back to the pits. While other drivers retired from the race, J.J. went on to finish the race with great aplomb.
In his over 20 years of professional racing, J.J. has driven in many disparate types of competition. He has driven IndyCar, the NASCAR Truck Series, ARCA (Automobile Racing Club of America), and several others. In 2003, while participating in USAC’s top divisions, he achieved the “Triple Crown” in a single season.
With temperatures inside stockcars running as high as 130 degrees, J.J. says that he has to remain very fit, and well-hydrated. Also, he makes sure he sleeps well so that he can maintain the high level of concentration required for NASCAR races which usually run three to four hours.
On Sunday, October 15, J.J. will again be driving the number 15 Ford Mustang, serviced by Rick Ware Racing, based in Concord, North Carolina. In the photo, you can see the car being prepared for the race. This year the race will be broadcast on NBC at 2:30 ET. So, mark your calendars.
