    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.

'I Like Trevor Bayne's Idea: - A Throwback Daytona Beach Race'

and i liked what he said about his concern about the transition from the sand to the pavement...i cant remember his exact words...but he made it sound like he would be nervious to do it...but at the same time..would be up for it...typical race car driver...like looking at the 8 inch deep rut in turn 2 ,and thinking dang..thats right in my line...and then during the race....aim for the rut everytime you throw the car into the corner....lol

Not getting my enthusiasm going at all.
While this idea is being touted perhaps the [really stupid] convertible class should return.
Not.
 
Wombat, I loved the convertible races. It was tradition that all of the Spring races at Darlington, then called the Dixie 300 (couldn't get away with that today), were always convertible races, ditto for the Firecracker 400 at Daytona on July 4th. I can see Curtis Turner in his #26 Ford and Fireball Roberts in his purple #22 Pontiac right now. It was a spectacle to see, you would have loved it.

As to a throwback to the old Daytona race, maybe as a side show, prelude to the 500. Have them drive old timie cars too, show who the men really are. :icon_lol::guinness:
