Welcome to what currently exists of IROCZone.com.  As you're aware, we've been having some issues lately.  We lost our previous server space, and the migration has not gone as well as we'd hoped.

Because we lost our previous space unexpectedly, we were unable to send any kind of advance warning to the members when the site went down.  We were as surprised as the rest of you.  Getting the forum to work on the new server has been a challenge. 

We are running at a temporary location while we sort out some issues, but wanted to have something up so that you knew that we're still working on it.  Once we have things functional again, we will send an email to all members.  To the sites sponsors, we apologize for this downtime and we encourage you to contact us with any concerns.  We will do whatever is necessary to remedy the situation. 

All questions can be sent to me at jim85iroc@yahoo.com or I can be reached on AOL IM under Jim85IROC.  Thanks for your continued patience.

IROC-Z In the Superbowl!



Last night while watching the Superbowl, about halfway through the Bud Light "Fist Bump" ad, there sat a beautiful red IROC sitting on what looks like 20" chrome IROC rims. It's great to see a nice IROC in a commercial, even if it was only very brief! Below is a youtube link to the full ad:

Board updates are complete (have been, just took too long to update the news section).  Garage is fixed (was having a problem with editing existing vehicles).

September 23, 2006

UPDATE 2: Some issues with the Garage.  The forums are pretty much done with the exception of an add-on we're trying to implement.  Shouldn't cause much more downtime, though.  We'll keep fixing what we find wrong as we go along.

UPDATE: Well, looks like the boards are back up, but notice a problem with registration.  For those of you trying to register and timing out, please be patient as we work on the solution.

Forum software update is in progress.  We have a little issue with the database so errors on the forums are expected at this time.  We are working hard to get it back up and running and hope to have it up within the hour (a little after noon EST).

Sorry for the inconvenience, but we'll get it straightened out.

Thanks!
