OT: Talk to me about the A1GP series. I have a new assignment at work. Pictures added
As the title states my offseason from the IRL isn't going to be as calm as I was hoping for as I have a new assignment. Myself and another data engineer are going to be splitting time as assistant engineers for the A1GP USA Team. I am curious to hear from those outside the states that have attended races in the past. If anyone is planning on attending any of these races please let me know, it would be great to meet some of more ITR peeps. Here are the places I could end up.
I leave this Sunday for Snetterton, England. Will be there for a few days getting the car ready and testing and then head to Zandvoort for the first race.
http://www.A1GP.com
Zandvoort, Netherlands
Chengdu, China
Sepang, Malaysia
Taupo, New Zealand
Jakarta, Indonesia
Gauteng, South Africa
Mexico City, Mexico
TBA, TBA (I hear this is going to be in Brazil somewhere)
Algarve, Portugal
Brands Hatch, Great Britain
Since we all like pictures I added this and it's the only way to get most of you to look in a thread including myself haha
Theres cars to but who really cares when you have this around. I'll post pictures from my trip in a couple weeks.

Wow, that will be a busy off-season. I hope these don't interfer with the Honda Celebration. I would hate for you to miss a business class flight. 
Sounds like a promotion type position Josh, way to go!

Yup still married. She is still working on her masters degree so she is really busy with night class and whatnot so we really don't see each other a whole lot. Honestly guys I couldn't ask for Colette to handle my life style any better than she does. She does get frustrated when i'm out of town especial out of the country but mostly because she loves to travel and is jealous of all the traveling I get to do. She is athletic and is very competative so she has adapted well to automotive racing.

Re: (The Dude)
Hmmm, I mainly watch F1 but this series looks interesting. Does it air here on TV in the States?
EDIT: Quick search indicates that Speed used to show these but for the 2008-2009 Season, it will be on the Setanta Sports channel.

Re: (Swell_Ryder)
Well it has been a busy couple of days over here trying to get this car put together on time for the first race. Here are a couple teaser pictures until I can through the ones I took this morning.
