    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.

My Neighbour's McLaren M12

Bruce McLaren hailed from around here, so there is a lot of interest in these cars.
There was a gathering of them earlier in the year, and they came from all over the world:

The great thing about them is they are strong and simple.
You can fix them with real tools, and spares are easily available, or can be made up reasonably.
Here's me in the paddock with the M12.

When you start it, birds fly out of trees for miles around.
 
...and it goes like stink!
The owner is a weekend racer, and doesn't mollycoddle his toy (much) on the track.
Brilliant to see and hear...
