Over the last few weeks we have been experiencing a few issues with the server. One of them was quite a big problem with server partitions which I solved. Today we had quite a bit of downtime, and with that we had a few locked tables in the database due to this interuptions corrupting transactions with th database. I have taken steps to get these downtimes to a minimum today. I have also commisioned technicians to see why we are having total failiure of the server and if it continues then I shall be moving the club to a new server asap. My apologies for this and please be rest assured I will try my best to get things running smoothly again as soon as possible.

Over the last week or so the site has had it’s ups and downs with downtime. This was due to us filling up one of our partitions on the server which holds the databases. This morning I have moved the the databases to a much larger partition and should no longer cause any issues. Apologies for this and hopefully it is now all sorted and you guys can get on enjoying the club. cheers Steve

So for a bit of fun it would be great to see what we can buy out there for very little money. There are a lot of cars out there that are going for peanuts and there are some real cool performers too. So here is the challenge, what could you buy from http://www.carpoint.com.au (or any other classifieds) for 3000 AU Dollars or less? The winner will be based on performance and price. It can be any brand too! Post your answers and even a link if you can. Remember it has to be under 3k.
