We're seriously considering it. We had a lot of fun with some of the NZ'ers shadowing us and I'm really glad we decided to do so.
Costs are obviously phenomenal, but it really will depend on how the week's end up scheduling out. If spring break falls on NZ... well then, that would allow us much greater flexibility. However if we did go we decided we probably would not go for chairmans there, although I'm hoping it's going to attract some tough competition there... among the non NZ teams, we're more than likely going to stick with LA.
Good luck to all teams raising money. You have around 10 months.
