• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Kellys ongoing goofy thread...

do you think being upside down all the time has made them crazy or is it genetic you know Australia started out as a penal colony what the hell are those other little boats they race around the man made road course with the freakin V8s in'em
 
It's a combination of all the above.
The convict element, the being upside-down, also being in isolation to the rest of the world might be a factor :)

Troy, those 'boats' they race on the racing circuits & street courses are V8 Supercars. Not really my cup of tea (I like Rallying) but they sure can slam down a lap time!!
They're pretty handy at turning both left AND right which is something I find important my kinds of motorsport.

Ah, the jet-boats! Yeah, in-freakin'-sane. I think it might have been our near relatives the New Zealanders that came up with that.
The first time I watched them I noticed they had rollbars. WTF I mused, then one crashed into the carpark!!! I'll stick to bikes and cars in think :)
 
Thats about the most stupid thing I ever saw. If they could get them to scream then I'd be interested in watching them. I argee Troy....trim issues :doh:

I thought it would be bad karma to post the crash video, I'm sure there were some screams on that one!

There is a video on YouTube where a guy on one of these hits almost 100mph. They have cameras on board with the dude. Looks frickn scary!
