Default What happened to lgwnorcal.com???

I was looking for Rominl's wheel fitment guide and found the website is down. Maybe I missed the news flash but could anyone fill me in? Thanks.

We've been working on the site issue, which is technical in nature and we believe it will be resolved within the next few days. Unfortunately, entities beyond our control are responsible for the down time.

Once we get this fix in we will be able to manage our own destiny, but right now it is out of our hands.

Thanks for the update guys, thought the plug was pulled since it's been offline for at least a few days now. There's some good stuff on there that shouldn't be lost.

I'll probably post an alignment and tire balance article on the LGW site when it does come back online. That way the info doesn't get lost in the camber thread!

The site is back up now. We lost the .com extension, however we have just purchased the .net extension - so the site is back up on http://www.lgwnorcal.net

Our destiny is in our hands now!

This downtime won't ever happen again now as the domain name will automatically renew every year without any manual intervention on my part.

It (the domain) still says it's in it's redemption period.

Have you tried to place a backorder or have a domain agent pick it up for you?

You guys still want it if you can get it?

I hate when I do that to myself. Happens more often than I would like to admit

Hey guys, like I said before, I love doing this stuff! It's no biggie at all.

Not really. It has merely been placed on "hold" because the name registration period was over and it was not renewed. It will be available in a a couple of months and then we can buy/renew it again. I will take care of it when it becomes available.
