  • 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.

Jimmie! Folks Are Not Required To Move Over Just For You!

It's NASCAR, if you are the faster car and a slower car will not get out of the way, the driver of the faster car can give them the bumper. And, Jimmie, if you happen to be the slower car, you should expect the same.

Some really good racing at Indianapolis this weekend and no sticky goop applied to the track!
 
Well Kasey won by the only way I thought he could this year, and that is with everyone crashing out first, and they did,lol
 
And, perhaps due to the setting sun and no lights at Indianapolis, NASCAR hesitated on throwing the last caution of the day until after Kasey passed the half-way line.

I never did like that line on the backstretch, it's all too easy for NASCAR to manipulate the outcome. The guy with his finger on the caution button can end the race or create continuous restarts until he sees the outcome he wants. The line should be done away with. Another smelly area is the restart rule, the restarts should have the same rule as the start in that the leader must cross the start line first.
 
So what do you guys think...Did Brad jump the restart on Kasey?

I don't think so, Kasey waited, then got a bad restart, while Brad, in his usual form, performed a great restart. Hamlin putting his front bumper under Kasey's car did not help, but it was go time and Kasey simply did not get his car going.
