  • 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.

    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.

F1 and Ferrari

Lots of talk from Ferrari threatening to pull out of F1 if new rules are brought about regarding new engines and leveling the playing field. They have lots to lose as the engines are sold to other teams for millions each. Ferrari taking about starting their own series.
 
They won't and can't.
Technically Ferrari has pulled out of F1 a couple of times, but that was Enzo Ferrari being Enzo Ferrari.
One could say that Ferrari never ran a works team in F1 during the 1952 and 1953 seasons, simply because the World Championship devolved down to F2.
Other than that the Factory cars were 'withdrawn' toward the end of 1964 as a result of the FIA refusing to homologate the 250LM as a development of the 250GTO, only to be run under the NART banner.
But that was typical Ferrari the man, the present bunch of corporate weenies are just making noises.
Muppets!
