Hi everyone,
As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.
When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.
Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.
Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.
Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.
Thanks for your patience and support!

Ran into some peep's I knew as well- big suprise, actually.
Was over at the Suzuki tent with my 13 y/o god-son (recently gave him an old unused AXO jersey from the early 90's, as a 'sharpie shirt' to get autographs on at the races) ....I asked him 'do you know who that is?' as I pointed to a gent by the trailer talking to a mechanic, while 10,000 people were lined up trying to get Reed's autograph. He didn't have a clue who 'that man' was....I told him to go and ask the mechanic for that man's autograph. He got it. Then he showed it to his dad. His dad's eye's kinda went wow when he was showed it. After we got home, he Googled 'that man's' name. He got all excited and told me he was never gonna wash the shirt- ever! The autograph was Roger DeCoster's.
We also got Cowboy Kenny's (super nice guy), RC', MC's, Villapoto's and more autograph's just wandering around in the crowd. Don't gotta stand in line, just gotta be quick with yer eye's and a pen.
Waiting on some pics and I'll post 'em up later.... the racing was insane and very dramatic. Our seats were 5 rows up from the field, just after the first turn.
Stewart needs to learn how to ride and stay outta the way of the Honda riders (again!
). Unreal. He's pretty fast but out of control.

Kids!
Now he knows....... 
The young one has a keeper for sure. 
RC was hanging out at the Monster Energy tent with MC and Villapoto, and pretty much running amok everywhere spreading his way-cool vibe and energy... got a great pic of him and my godkid, wating for them to be e-mailed. MC and VP were really cool too.
Jason Lawrance cut the course in his main!

Think he ended up 4th and if he's backed up for cutting that could make a big difference in points at the end of the season. Kid is a cocky little sucker...
One position, back to 5th...
All in all probably a fair move, I would have rather they tossed him to 20th...

While watching RC at SX practice a few years back Roger sat in the seat directly behind me. My brother almost pee'd himself he was so excited.
I wish he sat in front of me so I would have had a chance to spill my beer on him. That woulda been something in my books, how many peeps could say "I spilled beer on Roger Decoster"
