==========================================

I am certainly the last person that should be commenting on the strategy used 
by the US at the WEC but from everything I have read and heard they were 
training to ride this way for quite some time.  It looked like the strategy 
worked at Arabian Nights 100 and I am sure it was refined in FL.  If you ride 
this way in practice and training with success there would be no reason not to 
expect success in competition.  It will be interesting to hear/read what did 
work and what didn't work with the revamped training and selection program the 
US Team used for this competition.  Was it just a case of bad luck that two 
team members DNF. Was the squad more successful this year then in the previous 
flat, desert, type high profile competitions abroad?  What can we learn 
(training, conditioning, strategy) or what will be shared (good or bad) with 
the general AERC membership from the US Team's experience both in their intense 
training schedule for this event and from this competition.
