Yep, either drift...or run a nitro T-maxx. Then what you love gets LOTS of coverage. That probably explains why I dropped all my RC Mag subscriptions...hmmm...

i did learn that electrical tape on the tires helps and u can install a red led in the exaust pipe. mello yello dialed yeah the green hatch is a killer drift car. U have some of the best drivers at this race and they get 2 pages of coverage. Wait a minute i want a job there i can explain the mains just as good as they did. Paul Lemieux took the lead and didnt look back LOL sad

....or you could "support" a race and then provide limited coverage of the event and then wonder why they dont want to hold the race again.
I wonder if the market would support a racer only magazine? XRC does a pretty good job but it would be nice to see an actual "racer" magazine...sort of like the coverage in Autosport for full size cars.
Years ago I tracked down a U.K. magazine and they covered all sort of event even regional type events.

Does anyone make a quality magazine? Seems they are all mostly ads with some real fluff reviews.
