Just wondered, as it's a great weekly publication (used to be called Motoring News), out every Wednesday.

Keeps you up-to-date with whats happening in the world of motorsport, and being weekly is allways topical (more so than most monthly mags anyway).

Been buying it for about 12 years now, seen articals in there about Martin Labbats500, Steve Scott........

Even PF's Sheady advertises in the mag every week:

Of course - woudn't be without it really.

Always keep on eye on various rallying mates - seen Bernie in there a few times too - racing, and not just advertisiing!

Not so many peeps know that Bernie is a "true motorsport person".....very competitive too......races against the likes of Mick Quaife......

RichardPON

He is a true motorsport person - dodgy tash and everything!

New add is MUCH smarter than the old one Mark

Nice typefaces and layout, also like the matching green border/stripe (matched to Autronic logo colour)......simple but effective!

If you have been buying it for so long you should have realised by now it is no longer worth the paper its printed on Doug.

Must admit Tony it was a LOT better years back, but the title is now owned by a large publishing group - so coverage & quality suffers.

Would you like to see more UK club rally scene coverage? I.E. not just the small one or two paragraph summery of club events?

Not really mate, anything Im interested in is now generally covered live on the web, in fact I always take my laptop out and about with me at weekends to find out the latest results on events and who's retired etc.

Reading a small paragraph about it 4 or 5 days later is no longer of use to anyone.

Many of the other articles have soooo many factual inaccuracys in them they may as well be printed in The Sun.

Anything worth its salt in the trading section will be sold long before its needed to be advertised in there.

I used to get it on subscription EVERY week, but stopped a good 5 years ago and havn't missed it one bit

I started buying it in 1991 and have hardly missed any, don't read it as much as I used to only flick through really, who was the cossie specialist from the coventry area that used to advertise in there? argh got it central performance I think and also "WARS" Welsh Area Rally Spares, they were breaking cossies way back, both companies now caput I presume.
