  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

Musclecar Enthuiast Mag

    As I understand it, that mag is the replacement for our subscriptions to Shaw's failed venture. Was anyone as disappointed as I was? I just got my first issue and it's already in the trash. Few pages, little info of interest, and a total focus on museum pieces. I think the over and under on how long it will be around is 18 months.:Dou:
     
  2. Jack, previous issues were much better quality, in my opinion. I'm receiving it in place of Muscle Car Motion, which they also absorbed. It's too bad Tom couldn't make MCP work, I think he just bit off more than he could chew by himself. I'm also getting Hemmings Muscle Machines, which is a good deal for $12 for monthly issues.

    Not so good...

    Jack,
    I too was disappointed. It was nothing compared to the Hemmings musclecar publication in terms of content and size. It was little better than, gulp, Hot Rod:spank:

    I agree, Hemmings is a lot more fun and a much better product. I even like Hot Rod better now that they have gotten more into nostalgia pieces. The match bashers and old photos are a hoot. Shows you my age, since I grew up with all that!:3gears:

    You think you guys were disappointed! I only received the mailing label with no magazine attached to it. I called the publisher and was told they had obtained the mailing list for MCP. The person I spoke with was very clear that they did not intend to complete the MCP orders, they are just sending the magazines as a gift to try to increase subscriptions. I asked if Tom Shaw were involved and she said, "No."

    Hey, John. First time around, all I got was a paper cover, with no mag attached. It did say that this was a replacement for Shaw's mag. When I called to get another copy, the lady acted as though I would see an equal number of issues as purchased from Shaw. But, who cares? It's not worth the time. Have a good weekend.:blast:
