Hi,

Here is an update from Macau so far:

The guys are doing well. They struggled on the first day of practice and qualifying with brake problems, but have since got them sorted. Qualifying went well, but since they didn't get much track time on Thursday they are still trying to find a good chassis set up for the race and didn't spend a lot of time trying to put in a fast lap. They have a 30 minute practice Saturday morning (Friday night our time) and then the race Saturday after noon. We are very hopeful that we can get an American on the box and that everybody comes home safely!

You need to get some more riders over there, half the field is british.

That was last year.....

And that is why I am glad all of my guys are coming back safe....We ended up having an electrical problem with one bike and a broken Sub Frame bolt on another...but at least everybody is safe.

Thanks Guys!

I think the chance of us doing the IOMTT is pretty slim. We are an AMA team first and formost. What allowed us to run Macau is that it is an invite only event and being invited means that they pay for a bunch of it. But, all of that being said.....the year is young.....you never know what will happen.

The GDC Sponsorship deal is still going to happen. As soon as I have our complete package together then I will go forward with it. If we end up racing big wheels with Bozo the Clown riding then you guys aren't going to want to contribute.

Thanks Bro!
