    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

This weekend coming up is the annual Bathurst 1000km, Australasia's major enduro touring car
race. For us motor racing fans it's sit on your arse day and let the annual battle begin.
 
Big weekend for us petrol heads!
Bathurst coverage begins Friday, MotoGP Malaysia, Japanese F1 GP and Bathurst qualifying all on Saturday, with Sunday coverage of Bathurst beginning at 07:00 (!!!) going through to 18:00, plus MotoGP Malaysia and F1 Japan in real time.
Only irritation, the Moto2 round coverage from Malaysia has been 'delayed' until 03:00 Monday.
Hooray for the 2Tb Hard drive PVR!!!!
:jump:
I'll be back and forth to watch Bathurst with my youngest brother, since his stroke he can't really get out for the day and his Care Facility is only five minutes walk from us.
 
Oh gawd....I hadn't got around to check out those other international events....the foxtel STB recorder is going to get a workout this weekend. :wavey:

1000km would require copious amounts fo brew to get through it. Do you think you will be awake for the finish? Sounds like fun!!!
 
For our modern domestic touring car racing Terry, this particular event is 5 to 6 hours of sprint racing up, down and around a mountain in rural NSW.
 
Good race!!
Despite the odd dumb-arse move it was one of the better 1000's for some time.
I managed to get most of the race in with my youngest brother (the one who had a stroke early this year) at his care facility, won $10.00 because Bright finished without breaking the car and putting in a good performance, and after moving everything onto his terrace we had a nice day in the Spring sunshine.
Huge off for Coulthard and a lucky save for Frosty, but Davison was pretty stiff to have such a big shunt so close to the end.
