  • 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.

Interesting Moves.

1) IndyCar:Jimmie Johnson secures 2 year drive with Ganassi.
Should be great for the series. NASCAR fell off the cliff over the past several years, but still draws huge numbers compared to IndyCar.
Hopefully some of those eyeballs Jimmie brings with him will like what they see and stick around to enjoy one of the better race series.

2) EffWun:Confirmed-Sebastian Vettel has signed a multi-year 'agreement' with 'Aston Marin/Racing Point'. Perez out.
It had been rumoured since Sebastian Vettel's departure from Ferrari was confirmed, that Lawrence Stroll had his eye on bringing the German to his team, to lead them into a new era as they take on the Aston Martin name.
With last night's news that Sergio Pérez would be departing the team at the end of this season, it confirmed these suspicions. While no contract length has been made public, the official announcement stated that Vettel had committed for 2021 and beyond.

IMHO Perez should be signed on at HAAS to replace Groesjean.
Right now.
Be interesting if Vettel is leading the 'Monobrow' and gets the good news from Daddy Stroll to move over.:173go1:
 
Good read Ed.

Aston Martin does have a long and (sometimes) glorious history if you overlook there disastrous forays into F1.
The 2.5 litre car was looked gorgeous, sounded as good as any contemporary but was a dismal failure.
Not very reliable and arrived too late, almost the entire grid were rear engined cars, even Ferrari were phasing out their Dino 246 models, and I think the equally
gorgeous Offy powered Scarabs were as obsolete as the A/M efforts.

:encouragement:
