  • 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.

NASCAR's "Flange Fit" Composite Body

Nice technology, but it is NASCAR. The National Association of Stock Car Auto Racing... there is absolutely nothing about these cars that makes them a stock car.

It's been 30 years now NASCAR cars are not 'stock cars' anymore...

NASCAR and INDYCAR will pretty much be "Spec" racing from 2018 onwards.....I only can hope that F1 can still stay out of this...
 
Decals on a body with a sophisticated race car chassis and engine do not make a stock car.

Nascar lost its way a long time ago
 
What's next? This series has really gone down hill since Bill Jr. passed... Had season tickets at Texas Motor Speedway since it opened ( four rows up behind start finish line) but gave them up after races started to run four hrs. plus. My brother is handicapped and couldn't sit for that long.
 
Brett Bodine, there is a old name from the past.

This new body doesn't seem that bad to me,it could help teams without huge budgets be a little more competitive, or not.
As was mentioned earlier it has been many decades since NASCAR was stock.
