Hi

The next issue is out on the 25th. Features an article on a few of the LOCOST race cars. Including two cars from forum members. Have been told it should be a good little article.
But then they would say that wouldent they. Didn'T expect him to say dont buy our magazine

Cheers Matt

Hi

Yep the article testing was all done the day before the last Brands hatch race on the Friday testing. Not sure what cars where there exactly as i was away on holiday so missed that race meeting. I know that TMC motorsport had there BIO powered car and blackie had his LA locost featured as well as Brian Mitchams car and there was at least one more as far as i know.

Slightly OT, but does anyone know where you can get the magazine? Is it subscription-only or do some of the chains tend to stock it. Looks uncannily like the Cars & Car Conversions of yesteryear...

You really have to search for the mag. I can usually pick it up at WHSmiths, BUT not always & they only usually have a very limited number of copies.

It is very much like CCC, but not quite as good.

Cheers, Rob

Thanks Rob. I'm passing a couple of WHS stores on Saturday, so I'll have a look.

Anyone brought it or read it yet. Still waiting for my subscribed one to arrive.

I would say not nearly as good. I've stopped buying it as every time I did I was disapointed. The editorial style just sets my teeth on edge, it seems to be written by a couple of youngsters who know a bit, but not a lot.

If you only look at the pictures, and not actually read it it might be okay

Cheers
