    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.

Congratulations to Kyle Busch and the number 18 team on winning their second NASCAR Monster Energy Cup championship.
 
Not my favorite driver by a long shot. Kyle has a big mouth and ego. He is, however, a great driver and he deserves kudos for the championship.
 
I was out of town during "Championship Weekend" so I missed the race, but I had it recorded on YouTube TV. When I got home I watched the last 10 laps and the post race stuff. Congrats to KB. He will be in the Hall of Fame one day. The thing I noticed during the minutes after the checkered flag was his reaction, both from the in-car camera and immediately post race. Apparently many fans took offense to the fact that he didn't freak out and do back flips and mega burn outs. I have never understood this. Somebody once said "act like you expect to be be there..." KB did not act without emotion. But he did act, among other things, like he expected to be there, and I liked that. And no, I still don't forgive him for smashing that guitar trophy at Nashville some years back. :)
