I'v just learned of RPM this year from a co-worker that had a perception and was impress I think i'll subscribe to them but i'v been reading car craft for the last 15 years cause it keeps me up to date on the things the other brands is doing.

I haven't subscribed to anything since SS/DI.
I'll occasionally pick something up if I see something that interests me........usually PHR and I enjoy Engine Masters on occasion.
Bracket Racing USA is O.K. too , but I have to go to a real book store to find it.

Not to side track BUT what issue are you referring to...
I pretty much dropped all my mags since most of the
ones I liked died.. if I hear of a GOOD article I will
buy that mag off the shelf

Magazines and their authors have cost me a ton of wasted money in this hobby 20 years ago when I got into it. As a matter of fact, im amazed at what I had to UNlearn. Thank God for the internet and real world interaction with some people with real RACING experience. No need for the one sided, money fed opinions from magazines anymore.

Exactly. All these magazines now are just full of advertisements anyway. No good reading material anymore. It's been well over 7 years since I paid for a subscription.

I was a subscriber to Drag Racing Action, but let it lapse. It was an OK mag, a bit of light reading really.
