Looks good and the article on Rod's car was a good read ....but
I think pete at Spec-r deserves more than a 1 poxy short line remark , mega dissapointed also that he wasn't involved with the article after all the hard work and hours spent with many a late night he has put into the research and development of the new intercooler .

To be fair the feature was about Rod, his car, and MA Developments, not about Pete, and while Pete undoubtedly did a cracking job of the intercooler, it is but one part on a car made of many.

We also devoted a decent amount of space to Pete's skills in MadAde's feature a couple of month's back.

We have also put the intercooler in our new product's section of the mag, so it's not like we've ignored him!

It's just a shame that it reads like a 2 man team , i've known pete for years and he always seem's to be the forgotten man when the big articles appear .
Im not getting at anyone person as it's a cracking mag and always has been even from my youth ( along time ago ) i can remember it being a quality mag .
And although it's nice to have his stuff on show in the "new Stuff" section it's always better to be involved in a record breaking feature .....
Just my 5 pence worth ....

The artical is about what was done to get there not a feature about the car in its current spec as that will come,
And I dont think Peter will be unhappy with the front cover shot its a big add for him.

The artical and the attempt was a 2 man team with Myself and Rod was involved on the 200mph run and no one else, the 210mph+ a third helped with the intercooler and bits of fab done and he will get the credit.

Must admit im happy with the whole mag, for the first time it does show how both teams approached 200+ runs & gives an insight into the technical difficulties. Think Reyland/MAD can feel proud. It will never be easy thats for sure.

I think his front bumper looks mint. It also looks like he has cut the original towing eye off too.

As from next issue it's being glued and stapled so it shouldn't happen again. PM me your address when the next issue's out and I'll send you a free copy by way of apology.
