Yep, I'm in Dongguan , China, working for Disney on the new park opening in Hong Kong.
I've been here 3 weeks, and most likely, have 5 more to go. I want to work on my car sooo bad. I havn't heard a V8 in weeks, but I did see some cool cars in HK, like a Skyline, and cool righthand drive Porsche's.
anyway, Just thought I'd say hello, and try to get back into the loop, from the other side of the planet.
Later rev it up for me, Steve N

Hey! I'm going to be out there March 1st or therebouts. Will you still be around? We have a shop in Dongguan (with a dyno even, except it can only handle about 250hp) and in Beijing.

Thanks guys, It is a pretty cool bussiness trip, they even put me up in a 5 star hotel,in an executive room,because I need the internet, its bigger than my room at home.
it took 15hrs from LAx-souel Korea, then 3 hours to Hong Kong
I'm in south china, pretty far from the wall, but if I get some time off, I plan to try to get up there. I brought my PT.com shirt, so I can get a cool shot of me somewhere distintive wearing it.
I may still be here in May I had planned to go home Feb.25th, but the Chinese new year closes the factories for 3 weeks ( we were told 3 days originally) so I will probably get pushed back.
Thanks for the clip Martin, I needed that, and yeah, they got pleanty of Goofys, but they needed a big guy with a stick to get him to do his part right :poke:
I'm doing QAQC for 2 Fiberglass factories ( they call it GRP glass reinforced plastic) that are making product for the park.they are good, they could whip out a cowl hood with their eyes closed.
My god do they drive BAD here, no really, its INSANE, just about no rules, including driving on the wrong side of the FREEWAY, seriously, my driver did a U turn on the freeway when he missed an exit. I just closed my eyes. while we drove down the fast lanes 2ft. wide shoulder heading into traffic.
they drive some cool thing here too, heres a pic of one of them. Do ya think thats enough Nitrous for that 125?!
Later, Steve N
