Change…It’s a Good Thing…Time for a New Motor and Blower at DragStory.com!

Warner Robins, GA – One of the most difficult things in life is change.  According to Mark Twain, the only person that likes change is a baby with a wet diaper.  When DragStory started last June, we had hoped to see somewhere between 3 and 4000 page views of the first event we covered. You can imagine how surprised we were when our coverage of the ADRL’s Ford Drive One Nationals at Martin Michigan saw over 33,000 page views. Since that first race, our event coverage has been viewed nearly 900,000 times! We expect to easily exceed 1 million page views by our first anniversary in June. It boggles our minds, we can’t thank you enough for your support.

With such dramatic growth in a very short period of time, our current server has struggled to keep up with the demand. I’m certain many of you experienced frustration when the site tanked on us in Houston a few weeks back. Well, in order to prevent any downtime in the future, we’ve migrated DragStory to it’s new home with our other servers at the Planet in Houston.  The change-over took place this past weekend and went fairly well given how big the site has become in 9 months. We have over 12,000 pictures in our galleries alone!  

We believe we’ve gotten the site optimized for maximum performance.  However, in every new tune-up, there’s always a learning curve.  We hope our experience pays off with a full throttle run on our first pass this weekend at the Outlaw Drag Racing Associations inaugural event at I-22 Motorsports Park in Eldridge, Al.  However, if by chance you stop by for a look see but can’t find us, fear not, we will be back just as soon as we re-strip the blower and push a new set of slugs in the block for the next round!
