    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.

The end of two legends.

Late last week Australian Motor Sport lost one of the great men in the 'Touring Car' series, Harry Firth passed away aged 96.
The man who guided Ford to Bathurst wins with the early Cortina GT500 and the Falcon GT, followed by a long career as the man behind the Holden Dealer Team and mentor to Peter Brock, leaves a legacy that will probably remain unequalled 'Down Under'.

Today, Monday, May 19, the legendary Sir Jack Brabham died, aged 88, the man who has NEVER been equalled in his achievements in the Formula 1 world.
His humour and down to earth approach to life in general will be missed by a vast number of Motorsport fans, who, as I did, grew up following his career.
'Black Jack' was a genuine Aussie hero and a bloody good bloke.

If there is an 'afterlife', between Sir Jack and 'Firthy' it is about to get a serious shake up!

"Black Jack" and "The Fox". Sad times for those of us who watched them in their prime. Jack - a hard man on the track and a gentleman off it - thanks for all the memories.
