Hi all, I've had to take the server down for some maintenance on 6/7/2006. Sorry about the inconvenience, but, I believe we are busting out at the seams and our server just can't keep up with it anymore. I'm looking into it but please have some patience if the site is slow at times.

It is funny. Whenever the board goes down I get this panicky feeling like I'm missing out on the action, then later when it comes back up I realized everybody was unable to get on and I didn't really miss anything at all.

When the site is down, I have the same feeling, like Mike is having a private Z party-now I understand how my son feels when he doesn't want to go to bed...

Seriously Mike, Thanks for all of your hard work to keep this site great!

I want to add my thanks to Mike for this site. It is the BEST Z-car site on the web. I, too, get all panicky when the site is down. Once again, THANK YOU, Mike.

Cheers, Mike G.

Yep, thanks Mike for all the effort you put in here. I do appreciate it.

Thanks guys... I just discovered that our kernel was compiled incorrectly on the first install and it was causing all sorts of kernel-based errors. I believe this was at fault of our service provider. The kernel has been re-compiled and I'm assuming it will be better after the server is rebooted.

All rebooted. Let me know if you guys see anything weird.

Seems faster loading!

Let me think. I haven't seen anything weird. Could it be that it's been fixed? Kernals compilations can be troublesome or so I hear anyway.

Maybe you need a new service provider. You could look into it.

But then again it may be better to stick with what has worked in the past. A big change like swapping service providers could mean trouble. Likely you would even have more down time. Last time was short but the next one could be a killer. Something like "if it ain't TOO broke don't fix it" may apply?

Always look on the bright side when you have problems like this. Sometimes we could all use a break from the site anyway. Some downtime could be good! Heck I know I my wife loves it when I can't log on. Anyway, back to work for me. Thanks again for fixing the problem!
