Magazine Subscriptions ??

[TCracingCA]

Vintage Motorsports

and while I am there, I read the rest inside the store! And usually pick at least one other to buy and keep!

I wouldn't turn down a subscription to Octane. Slick!

I subscribe to AND read only two mags:

- New Yorker
- Freehub (beautiful mountain bike mag)

Neighbor gives me old copies of Science (it is a weekly but one issue takes > month to read.) Perfect if you need something to really chew on.

Economist went way downhill about 10 years ago, analysis not good enough to be interesting. Pander to their readership.

It should be called Auto-some-random-time-per month. It is supposed to come every two weeks but they can't even manage that reliably. The columnists are pitiful. They have entire issues devoted to SUVs or pickups and 1/2 a page about F-1 race from a month to 6 weeks ago.

My thoughts exactly. I've been reading/subscribing to Autoweek since 1965. I'd look forward to every issue because it was RACING news. Now it just blends in with the rest of them, SUV crap, trucks, ADVERTISMENTS galore. I just now get R&T, Hemmings SPC, and the internet. Oh well, times change.

I have probably close to 15 magazine subscriptions. Only car related one I get anymore, is the one from Hagerty Insurance. Car magazines have totally turned to garbage. Repetitive content. Articles outnumbered by advertisements.

Not a fan of "online magazines". I still prefer having an actual book in my hand, whether its a magazine, catalog, or novel.

I used to have CarCraft back in the days Freiburger was an editor and I was low income. It was a fun magazine with stuff to try at home on a budget! I haven't read it in a long time, but I want to re-subscribe some day.

grassroots motorsports is still great as always

Racecar engineering is porn if you are into the technical stuff and dont mind spending 200$ a year or whatever it is
