On Monday August 6 the web site will be down for approx 3 hours while the hosting company performs a upgrade.
Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Thanks for the heads up Taylor and for keeping us modern!

I might add that I understand our current page design is no longer available, so after the upgrades, the site will have a slightly different look.  Don't be alarmed, you'll be in the right place!!

So what's getting an upgrade?  Are they swapping in fuel injection?  Maybe a heavy duty rear axle?  V8 swap?   ;D

Hey, I like the looks of the new upgrades!  Not quite as awesome as a V8 swap, but looks good nonetheless.  Thanks potent357!

I like the new look.  It's a lot easier to see the subforums with new messages.  Sometimes with the old small icons it was too easy to scroll right by.

Could just be me, but it's a complete mess on chrome for my phone. Anyone else have this issue?

On my laptop at home, running probably an older version of chrome, it looked like this.  But on my computer at work, it looks perfect.  The version here is  Version 67.0.3396.99, I'll have to double check what I'm running at home.

Try clearing your history and stored web data.
Sometimes this clears up some problems.

I was about to do this when it was fixed by itself. Looks awesome to me.
