Exclamation ATTENTION: Hurricane Rita & LS1TECH

Good afternoon everyone, I hope everyone gets to read this message.

LS1TECH servers are located in Houston, TX. We are setting up a temporary host for LS1TECH that is outside of the hurricane Rita path, just in case the entire city loses power. Be prepared for some potential outages resulting from this storm that is supposed to hit Friday evening.

Just wanted to inform you, in case the site goes down periodically.

Tony

Yeah I hope everything turns out okay down there. I am more than willing to sacrifice the tech for as long as anyone down there has to sarifice their livelyhood. Even though it would suck to be without the site for a while, there are more important things (like hurricanes) that we should worry about. Regardless, good luck to everyone in Texas/Lousiana/Rita path.

We appreciate the heads up. We wouldn't want to think you aren't paying your hosting bills either

If you need a safe place to store all those beutiful cars Tony just let me know. There aren't to many hurricane's in Wisconsin. Lake Michican isn't that big.

save those cars, we cant have 50% of the f-body population drown, or get blown away, or crushed from falling debris, etc. Oh, and save yourself while you're at it.
