  • 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.

Race simming is hazardous!

It is when you find yourself driving IRL and race sim habits come into play!

For example:
1) After changing gear in ACC with paddles you attempt to do the same using the indicators and light stalks in your road car!
2) You set stage times for a road trip much to the annoyance of your passenger.
3) Refueling stops do not allow time for 'comfort breaks' (much to the extreme annoyance of your passenger)

Feel free to add more from personal experience......:biggrin-new:
 
'Leaning' on other cars and swapping paint while taking the inside lines on corners gets frowned upon in RL too! :dizzy:
 
4) You come across a road sign that says 'Winding Road Next 10KM' and you promptly drop back a gear and accelerate.
5) Any and every corner you take (either Urban or Country road) requires leaning into, not just the head but the entire body mass.

Giving navigation calls to yourself when you know the road... 'five left, into one right, do not cut..' :biggrin-new:

On a side note, linking the radio volume (and quality of music) to the pressure applied by the right foot (a.k.a. the volume to speed ratio) gets frowned upon by RL co-drivers for some reason! :dizzy:
