    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 Tom Clayton has offered to post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Looking forward to this race, with the best field since the hay days of group C I think. No less than 23 LMH/LMDh cars from manufacturers like Porsche, Toyota, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Alpine, BMW, Cadillac, Peugeot and Isotta Fraschini, with another 16 LMP2 cars and 23 GT3 cars making a grid of 62 cars!

Will be a long TV weekend, but I have my Survival package organised.
Ms. Wombat is spending the weekend with my sister-in-law at one of our better (i.e. expensive) retreats!
Hoping for a Ferrari win.

Rooting for Cadillac myself, because of how good the car sounds, and because of a Dutch driver of course, but I think Porsche or Ferrari wil take victory this year.
 
Five hours in, Ferrari 1-2, Toyota back to 4-5 but still everything to play for. Really close racing! One BMW had a crash, one Alpine blew an engine.
Lots of rain expected for tomorrow.
 
Six hours to go, top ten within ten seconds. Both Alpines and BMWs out of the race, and two Cadillacs in trouble, but the third currently in the lead.
 
Two hours to go, Ferrari #83 out unfortunately after leading for a long time.
Looks like a fight between two Ferraris, a pair of Toyotas and a single Porsche to the finish!
 
The racing in between the safety cars was great, surprised at the pace of the Toyotas.
Really fed up with the strange 'Safety Car' calls.
I doubt 300+K in the rain is practical, but 4 hours in a single stint was frustrating.
At least we were able to cat-nap in relays.
Great result for Maranello!
