Probably not a big deal here but it seems Blackhole Motorsports might be gone for good . If it is down for good this is a big blow to alot of older sim racing games such as SCGT, GPL etc... and to games that really didn't get a huge following like the Hot Rod & NHRA drag racing games, TOCA Pro Race Driver series etc... After a google search of some forums about it the only good thing I've read is that it might be a software issue.

Spike,
As the site is still down I think we can assume that it won't return. This is very pity as they had tons of stuff to download.

Spike, As the site is still down I think we can assume that it won't return. This is very pity as they had tons of stuff to download. The good news is that Heat is well off as FFSRacing.com has Archives of much of Heat's downloads. Also some of the content (not the downloads) may still be available here... web.archive.org/web/20100103065809/http://bhmotorsports.com/

Yeah, BHMS is dead. It has been dead for close to a year now... as far as the site actually working. The guys who owned it didn't have as much time anymore to invest in it, so that was why they "hired" guys like me to help moderate certain sections and control the uploaded files for the certain areas we were over...since they didn't have a ton of time themselves to do all that stuff.
But it went away without so much as an explanation even being left. If they didn't have the money, or the time, to invest in the site, they still could have taken a minute or two and let the thousands of members know something.... anything at all about why they have disappeared without a trace.
It really sucks for some of the other game files that could only be found on there. Lots of good SCGT cars, Dirt Track Racing files and other things like that which you don't see elsewhere.
That is why I am glad there are people in the Heat community like FFSBudman, Sofa747 and myself who are packrats and have most all known files related to Heat stored back on CD's or DVDs in case something were to happen to the major sites.
Rest in Peace BHMS.
