Radio Race Car mag

well just been in to buy the latest copy of the mag thumbed through it and back on the shelf at W H Smiths went and got a maccy Dees with the saved cash, im sad to say since Dez has gone from the mag it has gone down hill you have to be a off roader now to have the mag should change the name to Radio off roader mag.
I for one will not spend any more dosh on it seems like it was a hard job to even put tc cars or anything else in it for that matter other than short course and off roading yuk!!!!!!!

As per all things supply and demand . . . .

There is a lot of people out there running cars ( on road ) I wrote for the Mag back in my on road 1/10th I.C days and I wanted 2 pages back then and I could only get a page or some times 1/2 a page as it was all electric but the thing is if people dont write for the mag and the only ones writing for the mag are off road people then theres your answer and also its done on Advertiement politics dont you hate it

yes i do hate it Gazza Peter Grey the editor has put more off roading into it and guess what he loves off roading so thats the down fall ive cancelled my order at wh smiths now !!!!!!
At least Dez Chand covered everything all i can say mate its salt and pepper now!!!!!

the mag basically reviews new kits
name a recently released onroad kit they havent reviewed? theres none which is why its all offroad at the moment.

i love the revies and the writeups so im not going to complain

as Gaz is an off road fan . . . . I rest my case

Gazag as you clearly miss the point mate it takes nothing to do a club round up or a write up but you clearly love the wallowing in mud mate as gaza said i rest my case and dont forget to get the tea's in you promised!!!!!! whoops Lord lucan has just pulled up on Najinski for tea

Hi all
Would there be any debate though if it was all on road!!!!
I think me not as Gazza said supply and demand!

So come on all you road'ies get some mud in them tyres!

DIRTY BOY snakey

I must admit Rallycross is far more fun and astro lets you run all year

Is anyone submitting race reports to Race Car? My biggest issue with RRCi has always been the length of time you have to wait for a race report to appear, and that's even worse with the internet being so instant now. The only problem is, I doubt any mag would accept unsolicited reports, so maybe an alternative option needs to be looked into.

And that will be there down fall to far behind

I think it was the same with the Last editor as well you waited ages for write ups to come into the mag.

Oh I know, and there's not a lot they can really do to fix that, but if they we're an online magazine, then the race reports could be uploaded as soon as they we're ready, and not have to wait for the next issue or space in the next issue.

i got the newest issue about a week ago.

its a good mag HOWEVER they have the review of the Xray M18. now its got a review and a pretty good one there is a problem, the car was discontinued befor christmas. i carnt get any knucles for mine

Get me the part number and I'll check to see if I can get any, otherwise, if you still need them after April, gimme a shout, I may have an alternative.

two months out of date then
