But GOOD NEWS EVERYBODY!!!!! :D

They are back under another name http://www.racingfor.me

If you had an account with RU you should get an email about it, if not you still need an invite code. There is also another site one of the guys is using to post to superseeds.org
Fellow members,

We welcome you to Racing For Me, the (new) racing motorsports torrent community on the web.
Unfortunately we had to see some very invaluable team members say goodbye to us, but a small group decided to continue with a new site and name. The reason for Racing underground going offline is, that some team members simply couldn't combine their personal commitments with their virtual ones on RU.

We do this on voluntary basis and in our spare time, so we respect their decisions as the site has grown so quickly, that more and more time was spent on the site and its community. After a long and heated dialogue with all team members involved, we decided to take the site offline for a while until we decided which path to take.
Finally, after two weeks we can present Racing For Me and we will continue where RU left off. The second reason for the closure are the many, many hits we had on Google. Being popular is great, but it can also attract a lot of unwanted interest.

Unfortunately this did mean that we had to "rush" through the development of the new site and some pages are not (fully) functional yet. But the main functions should be working properly and we will continue to build on this version to improve your RFM experience. We decided to remove all forum data, as a lot had come redundant and in time we will re-add some essential topics, like tutorials and what not. Together with the forum data, all messags have been removed as well (again).
If you need access, pm me. I have a generic account to use

I'm getting reports that it's using an invalid security certificate. Have you accessed the site without problem? I'm sure it's ok... I'm just paranoid. :) :D
