    I think its on sale next week, I wonder what they wrote

    It was done at the start of the year, it's out of date already since it talks about last years engine, looking forward to seeing it glossy form though

    have you ever seen a cliosport members for sale ad? they start it by telling you it only gets washed with the 2 bucket method with a wool mitt, dried with sonus towels and what products they use, agp srp poorboys collinites, 70k no history.

    As the title says but the genuine article has better and more photos and it comes with the rest of the magazine to read.

    Re: Major article on Scoff's car in PPC

    Just got my subscribed July issue of PPC and have to say that the credit is long over due! Well done Scoff, well deserved and coming from what, in my eyes, is the best car mag available today, just makes it that more special.

    One of the true pioneers in the GTT world! Now, someone grab my feet before I get lost forever.
