    Post 16 Update

    Post 17 Warning old domain name stealing credentials

  • Special Server Maintenance

    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.

A post-race comment got me thinking....
*Seems* to me like over the last decade or so...whenever Chevys were strong...not much complaints. But whenever a Toyota or Ford got strong, it was off to the dyno to measure horsepower...

Am I wrong :ques:
 
Interesting. Haven't thought about it like that, but you may have a point. I like how Dale Jarrett put it: Something to the effect that qualifying was a "formal affair", in that "bow ties were required". Of course DJ drove a Ford...
