lol yes i noticed it too when i got the copy in the mail. Steve, did you get the mag? i read the front question part where a guy wrote in saying that there are more and more 4cly cars poping up, and to remember that the mag is perfromance ford and not fast 4's or something similar.

I laughed at the single minded View of that tool. The Magazine is performance FORD. Ie ALL FORDS!

rant over.. those kind of people get to me, like rally deep down. they irritate me and i cant stand them.

Just bought the magazine. I thought I would scan the pictures for everyone to have a look. Great to see 2 members with their cars in the mag!

Steve's little beast!



Darren Best doing what he does best!
