    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.

So we've got this RAF Exchange officer on our staff....(Squadron leader if you're interested)....

So anyways, I start to tell him about my trip to Circuit Of The Americas & he tells me to "hold on...."
Then he comes back tells me (long story short) that he grew up with & still maintains a friendship with James Toseland!

Go figure eh? :mixedsmi:
 
It's a small world in many ways Ed, and Motorbike racing is quite a tight group.
Toesland was a pretty good Superbike racer, a World Champion, but he never really made the cut in MotoGP, shame really.
Speaking of Superbikes, I watched the Monza round recently, the pucker factor was around 11+ ........ and that was just me!
Speeds were peaking at some 210-215MPH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And re COTA, have you given any thought to getting there this coming weekend?
The 'V8 Supercars' are running one of their rounds in Texas, probably not on the full circuit but I'm thinking you'd enjoy some different tintop racing.
