    Z31Performance.com - Donation Drive - Updated 10/17

    There's a first time for everything.


    Why: To pay the hosting fees and upgrade to a dedicated server for better performance and more features. We currently have limitations due to the inexpensive shared hosting service the forum runs on.

    What are the advantages?
    - INSANE bandwidth
    - Better performance, easily upgradable as time goes on.
    - Limitless database size (current limit is 500MB, which has been exceeded a few times now).
    - Open-access for viewing the forum without logging in.
    - Specs: 24/7 managed managed server, 300gb/month bandwidth. 2gb ram, 1.5GHz processor.

    Disadvantages? Expensive. I hate PBS-style fundraisers and outright please for money, but they are needed if the forum is to support itself and not start to be a large personal expense on my part. That's why we will pre-pay for 3 years, so you won't need to see this shameless plug for donations again for a long long time!

    You will notice the forum inxex page at z31performance.com changing to reflect how much of the donation goal has been reached. Donate whatever you feel is fair. Absolutely all funds will be used for the web forum, server and related upgrades.

    Yes, the donating member rank and associated sponsorship elitism is included. You WILL have to request it though.

    How do we request the donator tag? The PayPal donation you got from the Calgary address was mine.

    Well, one of the t-tops wasn't latched real well… God only knows where that t-top flew off to at 150+ mph. Didn't scratch the car or anything, just a boom and it was gone. I sure as hell didn't stop to see where it went. I didn't see any stories on the news… so that's a plus.
