    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.

"Ducati and Jorge Lorenzo will join forces in 2017 and 2018 as they look to conquer the MotoGP™ World Championship.

Ducati announces that it has reached an agreement with Jorge Lorenzo thanks to which the Spanish rider will take part in the MotoGP™ World Championship in 2017 and 2018 aboard the Ducati Desmosedici GP of the Ducati Team.
Lorenzo, born in Palma de Mallorca on 4 May 1987, has won five world championship titles throughout his racing career (250cc in 2006 and 2007 and MotoGP™ in 2010, 2012 and 2015)."

This came out of left field!!!!!!
Makes sense as neither of the current Ducati riders are World Championship material.
Now if only they could persuade Casey to get back in the saddle full time................................:encouragement:


 
Randy was not really dedicated enough (lovely bloke BTW), but the vastly underrated Eddie Lawson pulled off a couple of wins for Cagiva.
Cagiva ended up being taken over by Ducati, which subsequently ceased their Grand Prix program.
Shame as the bike was coming good.
:encouragement:
 
First heard the rumor mill at COTA, I really wonder how much he was offered in the contract over another deal with Yamaha. Agree about Stoner, as he has been the only one to really get anything out of the Duc, and as a Duc owner this is not the best. Still need Dovi to stop being in the wrong place/time and finish.
