Thanks TJ and Z_408. Will be hitting the local track today(fri). My objective is to make friends, learn and gain experience.

I've been in the hacking division of ILR group since March so I already have the necessary skills to be good at this technical layout! J/K.

Keep us updated as much as you can.......... Inquiring minds want to know. Is the whole US team there?

How's the layout? Is it pretty tight? Is the grip good? Did you change your set-up much? More details............. Are you meeting up with the Wangs?

Your info helped alot,thanks! I'm lucky those shops are only about 10min walk from my hotel. The shops are so small though like the size of my hotel room but stacked with R/C stuff to the ceiling.

What a day! The track is brand new so it was like an ice skating ring in the morning. Naturally, 02 and 03 drivers have really hard time with it. Towards the end of the day traction is acceptable. I had problem with my transponder with both heats and the organizer did the right thing to re-run our group. I ended 23rd which I hoped to improve tomorrow. For the US team Stephen did the best sitting in 4th. I believe Roland is 12th and Sai is 15th.

The Atomic organization is world class. I think Stephen had 1000+ photos with the trophy girls! Fun is had by all. That's it for now. Need to get more sleep.

Thanks for the update Stephan and Mike... Looks like Team USA is doing well in the first day, I hope better in the second day, I want to see as many USA drivers in the A main as possible.

Wish I could be there... but financially I couldnt do it.
