Anyone seen the news that I’m publishing a new Kit Car magazine specialising in Cobras ?

Yes I did notice that - shame on you for not telling me could have run it as a news piece when it was announced.

Drop me an e-mail if you would like to run it in the news section.

Cheers, John

I followed the link, then went onto the Kit Car website as the next link showed. Couldn't find any details on the Cobra mag or subs for it though.

Ferg,

Not in the first edition, sorry to disappoint you !

But subsequent volumes might well offer some advice and ‘impartial’ opinions .

There are some interesting design insights from its aerospace designer on another forum that might well get a mention .

Did he say what branch of aerospace he hails from ?

Flintstone,

That would explain why it’s taken so long.

To bring this back on track.

There’s only good, solid, enjoyable, fun, fun, fun. . . . . . in it.

Serious questions most warmly welcome.

Emmm!!!!

They don’t seem to be rushing forward. Do you think they’re looking for the catch?

How much for the Rally Design catalogue?

That's as long as it's not full of Cobra stuff. I'm not much into Cobra's mate.

Apologies to all you Cobra lovers out there, but not my cup of tea. Everyone needs opinions though, or the world woul be very boring.

BTW Den, did I hear right, Kit Car is out on Monday? If so I'll be able to get one by the end of the week.

Mark,
Yes, you did hear right. We released the Jan 04 issue a little early in an attempt to beat the usual Christmas retailing gremlins.

In fact we’re looking at the possibility of pulling forward on our print schedule such that we’re always early , just by a couple of days . In so doing we might actually get it to the shops on-time.

What’s for sure is that the Feb issue will be early , because it’s going to the printer before Christmas . Such that all the staff may get a genuine Christmas holiday. The first that I can recall in the 13 years I’ve been a publisher !

Cheers .

I don't much care for Cobras myself, Mark.
I'm more of a Libra man, did I mention that??

Still I like to read Kitcar stuff so if you can tell me how to get my quid's worth of mag, Den.........
