Okay...before us "fat, dumb, capitalist" Americans get to China...let's do a little research on the Chinese culture, and no, you're local Chinese restaurant down the street is not it.
I've been to at least 21 countries in my life, each with a unique culture. We Americans can be very insulting without even knowing it, especially with Asian countries. I hope whoever gets selected to represent American offshore racing in China takes about 30 minutes to research the country. The last thing you want to do is start referring to things that are Japanese to your Chinese hosts...does not leave a good impression. BTW...I would steer away from any discussion about Taiwan.
However, that doesn't mean we can't throw them a good ole' American pit party. BTW...Don't be surprised when you can run down to the Wal-Mart and pick up some ice cold Bud and Pepsi, or stop by McDonalds for breakfast on the way to the pits. 
Oh yea, and China has over 111 million internet users. I wonder how many are registered on OSO?

AHHHHH there's gotta be a couple of cows in China. When Smitty and I cook them a steak with Hoboken Eddie's Sauce on it with our special spices they may keep us there.
