There are known issues with US hosting:
You will NOT be listed by Google if you are hosted in the US UNLESS you have a .co.uk (or other .uk) domain.
Due to the distance, the ping times are greater and therefore the performance of your site is reduced (slightly). Also, there will be a greater number of hops (see your tracert) and therefore outages will occur more often even when your server is up, due to issues with networks between the UK and your US server.
Unless your US host is very good at replying in a timely manner to email support, the obvious costs for telephone support can be an issue.
