    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.

Miami Dolphins owners to take major stake in F1 Group?

Hey All,

But you don't post...

http://www.foxsports.com/motor/story/bernie-ecclestone-f1-crap-product-062015

""I was talking to some engineers the other day and I told them that I was always pretty good at selling used cars, and I still am," Ecclestone, 84, is quoted in an interview published in French by the AFP news agency.

"But I told them they have given me a crap product to sell," he insisted."
...

"As far as Ecclestone is concerned, however, the issue of 'selling' F1 to the public is simple.

"All people want is to be entertained," he said. "We are, first and foremost, an entertainment company. But today, when Lewis (Hamilton) starts a race, we already know he will win by 20 seconds.""

hmmm...

"US investment company RSE Ventures is said to be teaming up with Qatar to take a major investment in F1, according to a report by the Financial Times on Tuesday.
The report suggests that the two parties want to buy 35.5 percent of F1 from the CVC Group for a price of $7-8 billion – and that the ultimate aim is for Qatar to own the whole of F1. However, it adds that no formal bid has been made, and due diligence is still being undertaken."
Qatar!!
Now that is truly scary!!!

Then again, given that the source article is via SPEED and FOX it seems to be as liberal with the truth as usual.
