    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    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.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Assetto Corsa Redux

Reminds of a 'Go Faster' shop run by a couple of young Asians who catered to the Asian University crowd.
All manner of cars parked around the premises on Saturday and Sunday, ranging from Suzukis up to Nissan 'Godzillas', all sporting a lot of bolt on kit.
Everything from huge 'mufflers' to wings and things 'aerodynamic', which brings me to the wing on the SEAT.
There were several Honda Accords, along with other front wheel drive models, sporting wings bigger than the late 1990s Le Mans Panoz entries.
If the Hondas (and relatives) ever reached speeds where the barn door wings became effective the front wheels would have lost contact with the tarmac!!!!!!

Tried the Cupra at the 'Ring, and did manage to get a bit of air on several occasions. That thing is quick!
 
Love this car! IMHO the radiator is not quite right but I can live with that.
I was always a fan of some of the Graphic Artists whose work appeared in R&T as it was in the past so I decided to run this pair of shots through a couple my Graphic programs to get 'The Look'.
Came out about right.

It has the nose of the 1935 Aerolithe, but the rest of the model looks more like the Atlantic.
Poor rtm/exmods conversion as usual.

Be nice if we had the correct one but for now I'll do my best to ignore it Ferry.
One thing that is good: sound, it feels right!
 
This is a recent replica of the Aerolithe, made from the few existing photos and drawings of the original, which disappeared somewhere in the late thirties. Made from magnesium!
Note the lack of opening side windows, no visible exhausts and a lower roof line. Apparently is it a pain to drive with no ventilation, power anything and very limited steering angle.
Good story here: https://www.collierautomedia.com/1935-bugatti-type-57-aerolithe
