After 7 long years of trying to find my way as an automotive journalist, I have finally achieved the highest point in my career.
To see my name in a quality magazine such as Street Machine Fords, being credited as the writer of one of their feature articles has clearly made it all worthwhile and tops anything I have ever experienced in all of my working life. Big thanks to Scott Taylor (SM Fords editor and a pleasant person to deal with) for giving me an opportunity that has helped me to realise one of the goals I set myself when I first put pen to paper in late 1999. The article starts on page 112 and with superb photography from Tony Rabbitte, it is one I will be proud to show to my children in years to come. The rest of the mag is a good read as well, with Jai's XC on the front cover and Daniel's (aka Pazzo) Cortina also. Plus there is a heap of good tech stuff and some more wicked feature cars. Well done SM Fords on a great issue.

Its actually not a bad read this edition... except maybe a name change is required to 'Street Machine: Nitrous Edition'. Congrats Ash on the article.
