    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.

Mario Andretti's Lotus 79!

Kind of focused on the Wrangler rebuild right now. But watching this video makes me want to roll the Jeep out of the way and let the Miata free to terrorize the neighborhood:mixed-smiley-010:
 
Yes, at 1:35 starts the drive up the hill towards the "corkscrew". That view of the basic steering wheel and slicks makes me think I should walk down to the neighbor who has a shifter cart that might be a tad too fast for his kids/wife worries and make an offer!

Technically the drivers are not supposed to be 'racing', one of the odd rules that came in way back and saw Stirling Moss black flagged!
Love that Lotus, and the Cosworth was music to my jaded ears.
The owner should have enlisted the services of 'Super Mario', I noted several missed shifts and more over revs than I'd feel comfortable with.
:triumphant:

And CP1207......."let the Miata free to terrorize the neighborhood"?:biggrin-new:
Must be a very quiet neighborhood.

No need to injure or kill yourself during a demonstration run...

Two years ago they drove chassis 79/2 and 79/3 at Zandvoort, one of the cars driven by Arie Luyendijk, to celebrate the 1-2 victory of Andretti and Peterson.
