Special Server Maintenance
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.
- 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.
- November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
- November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
- 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.

I'm so pleased I put EasyEd on my 'Ignore List'.
Hmmm...
Might not be a bad idea since I too tire of hearing his anti-F1 drone in thread after thread - even in non F1 threads...
Hey All,
I am not and never have been anti-F1. I am anti team orders and I do question some of the basis for example - technical innovation in light of tracks that cannot handle more speed. How do you square that circle? Most racing series I know of are trying to keep cars slowed down. One of today's realities. It is disappointing that no one discusses such things openly.
I will say right now that you will never see me declare any form of racing that has been legitimately sanctioned and enjoyed by fans all over - "not racing". You will not see me ever denigrate legitimate racing because of the fan base. I don't think all the fans of ute racing are thugs and hooligans at all. I think that is wrong and I said so - too much I guess. Nor do I think all NASCAR is WWE.
It will be interesting to see what happens in Texas today - both series.

Check your anti open wheel (IndyCar) posts...
But on the other hand per your own words, the answer might be that you don't consider IndyCar to be "legitimate racing".

Harvick, Gordon, Keselowski speak...

Geez. At the end of the day what started it was Gordon picking the outside lane (the slow lane) for the restart. Brad saw an opening and went for it, Gordon came down and tried to close the door and it didn't work too well. And Harvick saying that you don't walk away? Ok, but you probably shouldn't push someone into the fight when they are trying to avoid the fight on pit road. Geez, what a bunch of kindergarteners.
