That is good to see - except, would it not be more of a service to let the readers know about the "junk" stuff that is out there? Not to say that there is tons in this hobby - however, advising readers of what may be a waste of money (kinda like clean clothes on Jeff - ) may grant a service that even further separates you from the other magazines out there.

Again - as I mentioned in my earlier post, I think XRC is a great mag... the only one I pick up and go through, but I am just pointing out that there will always be some variance of opinion based on who is doing the testing - no-one can be 100% unbiased, even if they get their equipment for free.

At the end of the day, it's the consumer that needs to make a final decision on what car they want, basing their purchase on all the information out there... magazine articles, internet reports from users, and company advertising - et al.
