I'm staggered they think there's room for yet another 911 magazine. Aside from the Porsche club mag, there's already two titles - 911 World, and GT Porsche. Is this market that big?

I wish them the best of luck. The more, the merrier of you can do it.

[Pickled Piper]

There isn't sufficient information to fill the pages of the current Porsche and 911 based publications. In my opinion much of it is already "padding" and "stating the bleeding obvious". I await this new mag with much cynicism. However, if it is any good I will be the first to admit it. I certainly will not be taking out a subscription based on the contents of the first or second issues no matter how big the discount. So let's stop talking about it and let us see your wares gentlemen!

Hey why so neg, about the magazine the first issue is not even in the shops yet. But people still want to slate it, the 911 has a huge following. The magazine will need a lot of feedback from it readers to get the right balance.

I say great, as along as it does things accurately, deff room for a good mag ,gt is one of the worst mags on the shelf for inaccurate crap,i don’t know who they think there readership are.
911 world is slipping, to much advertising and to much personal opinion, of journalists, which true enthusiasts are not really interested in.
enthusiasts buy American German French and what ever else, when they can get them etc ,so bring it on and good effort.
I will be ordering my supply for a 1 year trial

Yet another 911 mag

Yeah the new one is really nice and the other ones are okay I guess but is there really that much to talk about them?

This is really going ott

[spark_s]

Agree with Burzel. GT porsche very inaccurate sometimes and 911 World slipping.
Hope this mag will be better with less waffle and then we may see GT Porsche dissapearing?

You wouldnt happen to be Tim "menace to society, well - wales" Milne would you?? If so - care to fill us in on whats happened since your evo days?? I read you had a 964RS last (one of David Yu's ring trip comments?)

[silverback mike]

At the moment a 911 mag is the nearest I am getting to a 911

[verysideways]

GT purely wrong is such a waste of time.
When the writing is okay the facts are wrong anyway so i don't tend to waste my money on it.

911&PW did a homer when they stopped the "readers reports" bit, as we all commented on this very forum a few months ago. Funny how that section mysteriously came back last month...

I have seen the preview edition of total911 and the pictures are fantastic and the writing is detailed and accurate. It's an absorbing read.

If it's that good in print, month after month, they'll definitely get my vote.

Indeed......and next month's readers' cars section may be worth reading.

I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you.

See you Saturday night? Are you coming with us to Croft to watch the GT racing on the Sunday? I'm picking up my car from Red Line Racing on the way, Mark is giving me a lift.

[Adom]

Yes & no - will see you sat night, but can't make croft due to unforseen female based duties. What you having done to the car at Redline?

You mate are under the thumb and you should be ashamed. Cars are more important than girls. Everyone knows that.

The car is having the geometry done again so that the steering wheel is nice and central. The front ARB has been stiffened slightly, the rear was on full stiff anyway.

It has had 4 new discs (OEM) and 2 rear pads (ditto), keeping the front Pagid Yellows because they are fine. New oil, Silkolene Pro S 10W-50 and new oil filter. Also, the splitter that keeps falling off has been put back on. Should be all set for Spa!

[Adom]

I am ashamed believe me, however given my recent return from a 10 day stag do in Brazil I am a little, shall we say, on the back foot.

What time will you two be heading down?

(as an aside, apologies for the shameful hijacking)

Wasn`t aware you could read Paul. Don`t just assume it will have pictures that are as pretty as the ones in GT.

Get a couple of issues first just to make sure there`s something in there to keep you amused, I did hear they were putting a coulouring in section towards the back so you might be in luck !

How`s that old snotter of a GT2 coming along, are you getting the hang of driving a racecar yet !!

Keep smiling and speak to you about Silverstone soon.

All the best - Henry

[burzel]

Hi Henry
Your last post has put a smile on my face!!
I can just about manage dot to dot, as long as its in the shape of a 911!I cant even colour inside some lines, so i guess i will have to cancel my new mag.
This oh gt2 goes like a missile ,just got to learn to hang on in there,pleased with my best combe time of 1min11.5 secs on older tyres.
Of course when i go by you, I am sure you will be checking the handbrake that you dont have,is not full on!
I spoke to peter yesterday, things are a little hectic at home, but i will speak to you at some point ref silverstone ,deff interested.
regards
Paul.
