Really though, how many rc car magazines do we need? Besides being Traxxas catalogs (though that has gotten better), its not uncommon for them to cover the same products within a couple months of each other, so they tend to be repetitive. They had a few things that made them stand out. Guess it wasn't enough. |

I thought it was a decent mag. But I spend about $150 a month on magazines so not having to buy one won't hurt my feelings! |

That explains why we haven't gotten the latest ones at work then.

That really sucks. Its the only mag that I buy every issue of. I pay full cover too at the book store, just to make sure my cover is not destroyed by mail. Really sucks. I will really miss the professors too! Also sucks that we were covered by XRC last weekend at the B-Day Bash G6, and we were all looking forward to seeing ourselves and the event in the mag. Already told my oldest daughter about it and I told her I'd get her a copy. XRC will be missed and I really hope that all the guys have good luck finding new jobs. This is a bad time of year to lose your job. |

Sucks to see another big business go out...but, I never even read mine. Always so far ahead of whats in the magazines usually from being on the net that they just go on a shelf when they arrive...

| It's my restroom reading material. I just love RC and have since 1983 and spend a decent amount of time with it on my mind. I know we are all way ahead of the magazine material, but it is a little connection to the real world through our hobby. Just makes me feel good looking through it every month, and I will really miss it

This really bums me out. It's the first RC mag I subscribed to and I felt like I knew all the guys that worked there. They were my virtual RC buddies. On top of that I met Dave P at the first Axial West Coast Championship and he was/is a great guy. Then, I started covering the AWCC for XRC after that. I'm really gonna miss this magazine and hope all the guys can find new jobs quickly. |

| I would imagine RC mags are like car mags in they are for people who don't troll forums all day reading about how to be a better hobbyist. Or should I be buying one?
