Anyone tired of this ???
LOL,first off,Tim Burton makes goth-like animated movies,I believe previous posts
mean Ray Barton,..... LOL!
OK, next up, who here remembers Rick Dobberton's J2000 ?? Anybody?? The mags
swooned and waxed and fawned over this ugly over the top useless POS !! That was in
the very early 80's,and really,nothing has changed. Actually,that's not true,now those
types of cars are expected to actually turn killer times and usually do! I may be wrong,
and someone who knows better may correct me,but I believe Dobberton tried to run
that thing and it went 13's and I'm not sure if it ever did any better TMK.
I subscribe to MCG,I believe they are true DIY guys,and support us and our hobby.
True, they feature celebrities and manufacturers,but these things help keep our hobby
alive.CP also has been there long time,and is making a comeback mag-wise,sure they
have ads & promote new products.If no one sees or buys new products for our rides,
no one will make them for our rides,why would they?
I agree that it seems like the avg. featured car costs 2-3X what an avg home costs
anymore,and there are not "sweat equity" featured cars enuff,but the readers are the
ones who need to voice that and demand it. I have friends/customers who have had
cars featured in MM etc. , and I have had My own photo'd as part of event coverage
by a couple(CP & MCG),and I can tell you even tho' they didn't do the body/paint work
they had plenty of mech./assy. labor in them!! These mags are talking to legends and
helping to document Mopars history as well,and I enjoy those articles,so I will still buy
My MCG sub.,and pick up MA,MM,and CP off the stands, this forum is just a great way
for us to hook-up our community and communicate.THAT,is a big plus to us as well.
