I have always liked turbos, so I used to get your hot 4's and the like, until someone showed me the light and now I only get Zoom! Its interesting although the power figures are sometimes a load of sh*t but the techy articles and the like are good! Keep up the good work Esky!

I'm fortunate enought to get MOTOR, WHEELS, Street Machine and SPEED every month.

I think Michael Taylor at MOTOR and Curt Dupriez at SPEED are champion guys who have a good understanding of what they write. It is important to realise however, that magaxines are meant to be sold, so therefore the content has to appeal to a broad bunch of people and taps into whatever is popular at the time.

I subscribe to Mopar Muscle from the USA and it is a stellar magazine. The amount of information in this mag is mind blowing as is the parts availability for Chrysler Muscle cars (I still can't get over the fact that you an BUY over the counter, 574 CID Wedge motors with 800 HP running on Unleaded for 16,000USD.)

Wheels has become a bit of a MOTOR clone, and in the new car game you will always get monthly magazines testing the same cars so it becomes a bit of an overkill.

Not a fan of Fast 4's (an oxymoron) and Bodykits or other magazines of that ilk. More the fact that they are a case of style over substance and you need a second language to pronounce some of the names of the car owners LOL.

If Mickey T and Curt read this, next time lunch is on ACP not me!
