Notice Anything Different?

Written by Josh Katinger · February 29, 2008

If you don’t then you probably haven’t been here before!  Yes, we just did a pretty extensive redesign of FastMachines.com.  We’ve got her running on a new content management system that will hopefully be a little more reliable than the old one.  We’re using a new forum tool that is integrated into the new content management system, and we’ve wrapped that all in a sharp new look.

So your next question is - I can’t login to the forums anymore!  Fear not - your old user names have been preserved to the best of our ability, as have all the postings associated with them.  If you can’t login with your old info please email josh@fastmachines.com and let me know.  I’ll reset it for you and you’ll be on your way again.

Also - one of the cool things about this system is that once you register and/or login you can leave comments on blog posts with ease (no more typing of silly letters and numbers) and post in the forums under a single unified username.

We’re planning lots of new features in the near future including but not limited to…

  • Race schedules and results for a multitude of the top racing series
  • Enhanced TV listings that let you filter the listings by data, series, and type of show
  • A comprehensive directory of racing news sites, photos sites, blogs, and tons of other great fan resources online

Keep an eye on us and come back often!  More to come soon…

    Different Josh?

    What, George cocking his foil hat to the left vice the right now?

    Ah… I see now, you’ve come in from the dark and shifted to WP. “Bout time you saw the light, not that I would ever suggest such a move. Much.

    Looks good even if I say so myself.

    For the record, FT will be moving sometime in the next 30-45 days as well. Same insanity, same half-baked ideas but wearing a new set of clothes and operating under WPMU and joining On Pit Row and Bench Racing with Steve and Charlie under the Thunder Lounge umbrella.

    Nice, I go on vacation for a week and you change up the entire site? Gotta admit it looks great, but it may take me a while to get up to speed for a new posting.

    And Marc, when are you going to stop writing “vice’”in lieu of “versus”? Vice is the nasty habit(s) you learned in the Navy, versus is the expression of alternative ideas, often abbreviated as “vs”. Frazier vs. Ali, etc.
