Good I guess Ill have to start a new stack of mags. I currently buy...
Import Tuner(Every Month)Super Street(" ")SCC(" ")Road & Track(Depending on the issue)Turbo(8-10 issues a year)Import racer(Maybe 2-4 issues a year)Modified(2-4 a year as well)
No subscriptions for any of them.
Whos got the new Sport Compact Car?
Quote »The magazine is kind of a sellout, with regards to the structure of the articles and the content. Many of the articles are all about selling cars and products. Have you noticed that at the end of every article, they have an index of where they purchased all of the parts from?[/quote]thats because someone who reads the article might want to go out and buy the parts- SCC gets a discount on what they buy, and that place gets a little PR. That doesnt really hurt the integrity of the project, they still build cars that I like and want.
What's the big deal about the whole "bandwagon" thing? When a motorsport, or anything really, becomes popular and attracts new fans and drivers that's a good thing, IMO.ph34r wrote:BTW, DId anyone bother reading the Chris Rado article? If we want to talk about the bandwagon, his name should be mentioned. And he calls it"business"...
So, anyone who starts drifting from this point forward is going to be jumping on the "bandwagon"? Should there be no new talent in drifting? Should we watch the same people drift over and over for the next decade?
It's good that more people are becoming interesting in drifting and I don't have a problem with someone from another motorsport taking up drifting.
Mostly Rado's columns are entertaining because they piss people off. That keeps me interested.

What kind of point are you tryin to get across?
Im goin to bed early tonight. Too tired for NICO. Gah! I never tought Id say those words.
I guess he was trying to say that they're all similar in editorial style? Out of all the mags from Primedia, SCC is the only tolerable read. The rest are usually so kiddie-like.

I like SCC, GRM, and I'm probably gonna subscribe to Car and Driver and Automobile. Personally, I like SCC. It's not exactly profound reading, but it's fun stuff.
The VW Golf with the Cadillac Northstar V8 swap in the latest issue was crazy...you've got to respect that. I would've never dreamed up that combination in a million years. SCC usually has some good Nissan content too. There was an article a few months back with tons of pictures of vintage Nissan/Datsun cars....kick ***.
