Certainly looks like it. Funkdancer hasn't logged onto MSN yet, but when he does i'll see if he can sort it out.

And could be offline for some time :(


If any of you guys have the email address of chook or cabby, could you swing it my way. And get in touch with as many people as possible. Let em know the situation, and to possibly sign up at ARSE

I don't have Cabby's, but The Chickenman is already a member here so hopefully checks this sub-forum.

God damn hackers, or more likely, script kiddies thinking they are hardcore.

Ah bugger, I thought it may have just been a simply domain redirection type thing... hardly an expert :shake:

I was just thinking, this was either a random hack or maybe a banned driver from the past is seeking revenge.
Are we still go for the race on Monday?

Well it'd be a very sad sad person to do something like that

with regards racing on Monday night, my guess is that it will be dependant on a couple of things, how long it takes to get the forum back up, and/or how many people find their way to this temporary forum.

Honest question Hutchy, but why do you "sign off" your posts with "Cheers Hutchy" when we obviously know its you. Certainly not having a go at you or anything, just something i've wondered for quite a while now.
