    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.

Hey All,

Why is F1 in a NASCAR thread? :icon_lol:

This year is a very slow start for Jimmie - only 1 win this year so far - he certainly is not winning all the time. Those Virginians need to find a way to step up.

NASCAR does not need a rev limiter. It would simply take away the possibility of engine damage due to poor driving skills (over-revving). Course the F1 guys need it.

I like restrictor plate racing. It is completely different than other kinds of stock car racing. The strategy and tactics are completely different. I have said I think there is more variety in NASCAR racing than in F1 and I stand by it.

Safety is all important in most all organized sports now days and in NASCAR 200mph is the unofficial limit as the cars are certainly capable of faster. Should a driver actually have to risk life and limb? That is so preturn of the century.
