What's the vibe over there? Do you know who is coming? Let us know.

Read some negative stuff over on RC Tech about US racers not wanting to go because it's dangerous.

I would be keen to come over. I have no idea how to enter, and would have to raise some funds for the trip. I like to drink heaps of beer when traveling.

If the rest of the world is a bunch of scared people that don't want to travel. That is saddening. I think it might be more to do with the economy, a lot of people are hurting.

Rugby I don't follow that kind of stuff. Congrats...

Tourist America is pretty safe. The wussy people who are too scared to go over to SA from the US, probably live in some nice neighborhood, and only drive to the track and back home

Such a bummer for the people hosting the event. Maybe it is all fake phobia and racers will be there in force. I would go in an instant if racing for a team etc.. Sounds cool.
