Hi Alan,
Yes we're aware of that - apologies. Because of the problems we were having yesterday with the server, we shut down all non-essential processes as part of the diagnostics to see if we could identify the problem. Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible. In the meantime, our apologies to Marcus who works so hard to keep this up to date - it's totally not his fault! |

Hate to bother you with more little errors, but Kenny Roberts Sr.'s birthday is currently displaying as in the year "195"-and that the entry for 2000 spells "American Le Mans" as "American Le Man"-there is also a space between "Adelaide" and its comma.
The entry for 1950 reads:"Sebring held it's first ever racing event, It was also the first sportscar endurance race held in the USA"-the grammar's a bit messed up there, perhaps you could remove the apostrophe from "it's" and replace ", It was" with " - " Thanks Last edited by Magical Trevor; 31 Dec 2004 at 05:52. |

Re: today's OTDIH - If Reg Parnell really was born and did die on the same day in 1964, did he really have sufficient time to make an impact on motorsport and merit a mention here?

For perceived "data" errors in the calendar, can you please contact the calendar mod directly by PM.
I didn't put this in the FAQ originally as I would have thought it was self-evident, but obviously not. There's an entry in there now. |

No problem - just Marcus seemed to be responding to issues on this thread directly and had not suggested that he prefered an alternative method.
