    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.

Qualifying at plate tracks and "conventional wisdon"

As long as I've been watching NASCAR, the technique for qualifying at the plate tracks has always been the same: Run lap 1 high, and lap 2 low. The explanation has always been that lap 1 is used to build up speed, so you take “the long way” around to have maximum time to gain speed to prepare for lap 2. I've always wondered about this, and if there was any data to support this technique. Well, Jeff Gordon answered that question on Saturday. He ran both laps on the bottom, and won the pole. Imagine that. Will everyone else do it that way from now on?
