Whats up with Musclecar Enthusiast magazine, geez!
 

I just revieved me new "special collectors edition!" MCE in the mail yesterday. Whats special? There is count em', one feature car a 69 Cyclone thats it, one car. I support all the major car magazines, but this is a joke. There are 14 pages of the pure stock drags with one small picture of starting line matchups per page. No offence, but thats mailing it in. Also a tech article on the new Richmond 5 speed, that I won't be putting into any factory musclecar anytime ever. I buy these magazines for the old musclecar's, not resto mod. If I want to see that I look at Hot Rod etc. Why has this magazine taken such a turn? Man just one feature car, wow..BKH https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

I could not have said it better...The mag has become smaller and smaller.....Other than the monthly columns there was nothing to read.I thought it was strange the Zazarine Nova artical was in MCR when he has a column in MCE...I understand the freelance concept but jeeze how wbout some content in MCE..I'm still prety bitter about the break up of the old MCR..Has the internet killed all the monthly publications? It's a good thing I have 40 years of mags to reread.... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif

I think you are spot on, tons of ads also, they did put a nice picture of my judge in the first page of the pure stock drags section so I won't bash them to hard, its still a great magazine and look forward to it every month instead of the bymonthly mcr. Rich

Rich, MCR has been monthly for about a year. Brian asked the key question, what so special about this "special collectors edition"? Maybe it's their last issue. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif
One feature car for this magazine is unacceptable. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Seems like most of the magazines....Super Chevy, Chevy High Perf., Musclecar magazine etc. start out where I want to be and by the second or third year get into Pro Touring, Pure Stock drag racing and resto rods. I guess the restorer and numbers guys are not where they want to be anymore or as much. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Got mine in the mailbox yesterday and I gotta agree, terrible magazine.

Hey now! Those 2 crowds are the same crowd...except for that whole "racing" thing... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif

I used to like "Guide to Musclecars"-esp those full page color shots they used to have. I remember when they did a "Revival" of a 70 GSX in the 80's. In a time when Buicks recieved little print, I thought I'd died and gone to heaven!

I believe the reason why you see a deficit of articles is because they devoted many pages to the Pure Stock race. This is one event that the magazine supports, and I am glad they do.
