LOL I get on the site from time to time with a proxy server out of Canada. It's just a bitch to go through though. Mostly never works and always slow.

I am a American BTW adn Imoed here to China following my wifes career. (Yes I am a kept man) ha ha ha.

Seriously though Igot it pretty good over her. I restore old side car bikes, race motorcycles, make a few parts and I am a production manager for a company that makes pizza ovens. So I got a job, a hobby, a racer career of sorts and a wife that makes bank. I won't even comment on all the hot ass asian chicks. All I can say is WOWeee!

But I type like shit and spell bad so I need to work on that I know. But in my defence I talk Chinese (Poorly) most of the time so English is gettng really sucky after five years over here I noticed I can't find the right word to fill the gap from time to time and I think in Chinese language now a lot. f*ck I think I went native, I know I drive like they do now. I bet I get shot when I go back to the USA and try to drive. ha ha ha.

In racing news I go finalize details on my sponsorship package this coming week. So hoping I get the full ride I was promised.
I got some new body work coming for the 400/YZF project bike and I also got a young newbie rider I am training as a pet project. He's 17 and loves bikes and wants to get into racing full bore so I self sponsored him my FZR 40 spares bike t learn on and some old leathers and such.... got to pass the torch at some point. I'm getting too old to be truely competative anymore.

Steve,
You have one problem,and that is at some point you will decide to go "home" forget it it was the worst mistake of my life leaving my expat life style abroad to become an average joe.

Glad you got your sponser ships sorted and best of all you are passing what you have learned onward is the 17 year old local or ex-pat.by the way?

Yamaha ha George, the newbie is named Adnrwe Mc Clintock he is USA passport holdign but he has lived in tehUSA all of his frst 2 years of life. His mom is taiwanese.

So a half half Iguess ha ha.

He and I will be both sponsored for 10 races this year I got the nod today from our sponsor.

go back home? This is my home Iown three houses here. Nothing in teh USA for me. I left when I was 17 and spent nly about 15 years there of my adult life. The rest has been overseas in various places/hot spots.

I love teh USA but I have litel there for me at this point in life other than a bank account and a few sisters. Itotally understand what yor saying. I have had freinds move back home and then do everything they could to come back here.

Got to run.

Samsung is Korean! lol
they cost more here than in teh USA anyway. Chinese import duties on electronic items is Waaaaaaaay high.

Importing a car is 80% of the showroom value to give you something to better understand how the Chinese protect thier own auto makers.
Maybe the USA should try doing the same instead of givig them money for years of poor quality workmanship and lack of inovation. IMHO

I can't believe all the bail outs over there.

Where is it all coming from anyway? Taxes? or they just pringting up more ha ha.

Missing me really? Hmm never woould have thunk it.

I might start a new thread and hae it be a catch all for everything I have going on here.

That way can go to one thread and update things. Maybe just adjust my hybrid build thread a bit for this since it already has a lot of info and pictures.

AND FOR ALL YOU RACE FANS......

My Sponsorship worked out and I have 10 races I am fully sponsored for. Thats in the budget anyway.

If things work out better maybe I can get a few more races in this season.

There are 2 more tracks that my sponsor is not interested in (Lack of attendance) but I am. One of them being the Moto GP run circuit the Shanghai F-1 Circuit. Its insanly fast and looks really fun to run.

Glad to have you back and active here Steve. Might be easier to update your Hybrid Thread since it all pertains to that anyway...
