Nice job.

Good thing we don't rely on the host for back up's, that would be silly.

:)

Kent, I cannot believe the air bags did not deploy. Wow. A serious complaint needs to be filed.

Great pictures, and nice showing from a few of the brands on here.

That thing got a hemi? Shooooooooot, yeah it does, ah geee gee gee!

Ahh user error for sure.

JUST got off the phone with Nick. He has plenty of pictures. He won't be back online until late tonight or tomorrow morning. Do I see tottie in the corner of that one picture?

Looking forward to seeing this amp.

Thats great news.

You making a PE pitstop? Hmm, didn't actually even think about it on this trip, but I do need an F-conn compression tool Wish I had some money to send you to pick something up for me, but alas....

Being down most of the weekend did not help.

I think my back up CRT is near death. Need a small flat screen eventually for that computer.

You making a PE pitstop?

Looks really good, glad you finally got it all in!!

Wow, very nice sir. Great attention to detail and love how it all came together.

The BTL is an all out high output driver that can be used daily, the Xcon is an all out SQ daily driver that can have high output. Cannot really compare them as they are in different classes and power handling.

Updated topic.

It would be minimal is any at that point, but it would be an upgrade for avoiding this issue in the future.

:)

Wow, awesome!! Looking forward to your results, but loving these updates.

Mark and I were fighting and struggling with this all weekend. I had to pretty much miss a friends birthday party to deal with back ups and file extractions to get them uploaded to the server. Only time I was not home trying to try to fix this was during my son's b-day party. Not to mention, I got woken up in the middle of a dead sleep last night to upload another back up file. So quick explanation and update: On average, I run full site massive back-up's about once a week. Takes a good while and is slowly eating up the remaining HD space (have had to delete a chunk of music to do so over the years). But between those back-up's, I run daily back-up's usually every two days, and individual database back-ups once a week. Keeping in mind when I run the back-up on the forum database it gives everyone the IPS error for the 35-40 minutes it takes to complete. With that said, we had a daily back-up that was two days old, a full site back-up that was just under a week old, and individual database back-ups that were almost two weeks old. We had a service ticket in with the software developers in super early Saturday morning, only a few hours after the site went down. They discovered that the forum database had gone poof. We quickly contacted the host and put a ticket in relaying that information. After slow and limited response by the host, we manually forced a few of the above mentioned old back-ups, all the while believing that all the data between the full site back up and the point where the forum went down was lost. So with constant contact with the IPS software team, a number of different versions were repaired. Now, late yesterday afternoon, a back-up that we had manually pushed through, was the full site back-up version of the forum database. Which means last night what people were seeing and posting on, was actually a week old and so we thought that is where we stood. A week of posts lost, no big deal, we have had worse. Anyway, so I thought we would be moving on from there since nothing else had been heard of by the host as to what happened and if they were going to fix it. Now from then up until just a bit ago, I was still some how linked on the old back-up database, all the while the current and apparently not actually deleted, just lost, database was restored, so I was trying to figure this mess out all morning as to why I was the only member on the forum. What happened after my last support ticket to the host, is that it looks as if they found the current and up to date database and restored it. Which means, the only posts lost were the few made during the hours when we were running on the back-up database from a week ago, which is less then 100 posts or so total. Anyway, Mark is going to be in talks with a different host, one much larger and much more powerful and well staffed then our current and long time host. We have reached and passed the point of needing 24/7 host support, along with a private server, more HD space, and massive bandwidth. I hope that helps a few understand what the heck happened, and that Mark and I were working as hard as we could to get SSA back up and running asap. Either way, a new host is pretty much a given, and I hope we can do the move this week.
