My next article on detailing is in too.
                                                   I'm about to write a new one on interiors. I'm going to suggest a few new things for Robert ( editor:CKC ) to start too, like a letters section. I know he's getting enough correspondence to justify one now.

     I've got an idea of the audience the mag is aimed at and where he wants to go, but he needs some more mainstream ideas to help him get there.

I'd have loved to get some photos into CKM, but it didn't help with my computer going the way of the dodo (or me just plain forgetting about it  :-[).

I now have my new compy up and running, so I hope to have some photos of the MAD Show & Shine up in a few days.

 ;D

Spoke to Robert from Customkitcar today Friday 13th he informed me mag is at least a few weeks away.
He also informed me that it may be the last time it is avail through newsagents because of the hassle with them and also they absorb nearly all the profits from the sales.
He has said it will be maybe only available on line purchase or from subscription
I will keep you informed once I know more
One thing for sure guys we have to keep buying it.

Personally I think taking it off the shelves is a step backwards, even if no money is made from selling in the newsagents at least it is advertising the mag, and hopefully encouraging people to get subscriptions. Also If I was an advertiser I would be very hesitant to spend my money advertising in an online only magazine. I'm sure Robert has already considered all of his options.
It would be a shame though, online is great and all, but alot of people still like to flick through mags at the newsagents.

I believe James meant that you could buy it online or via subscription. Thus you'd still get a 'hard copy' to hold in your hands to read. At least that's the way I read what he said.

CYCO
once again you are correct
It will be avail in hard copy just got to order it online or subscription
kind of agree with Brenden seems like a step backward but then again its his money he forks out each issue and if you have hassles get a return it must make you think about all the effort in producing it for the Kit car scene
I will try to keep you guys up to date if things change and like I said before he's only thinking about it at the present time
thanks guys

Got it today

The mag has arrived finally
The news
The mag will now not be avail from newsagents
before we jump up and down you have to understand the costs of producing this great mag is enormous and to keep it going some things have had to change and this has to be one of them
We have to keep this mag going for all our sakes , so guys embrace this please and buy it
You can either buy it on line or by subscription if that poses a problem ring Robert on 0417 842 396 and discuss it
So remember after this issue you wont find it at newsagents
Check out our link on the forum directly to their web site

Not finding at any of the local newsagents at all. Most have said that it had already been pulled by the local distributor.

Yeah, I picked up a copy today as well. Only came in on Monday. Have had a bit of a look through while at work, though I've only read the ECCA Meet article, as well as Simon's article.

Will give it a bit of a read over the next couple of days.
