    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.

Of course!
And to be honest, I'm surprised the youth movement hasn't happened sooner & with more drivers!
Newman, Bowyer, Burton all drove for a looooong time...
 
Plus the younger drivers are signing contracts that are a lot smaller then the types going to the older drivers. They also get a percentage of the purse as an incentive. Why pay multi million dollar contracts for older drivers when you can get a young driver for a lot less.
