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

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.

Oh dear,
I’m a total tosser aren’t I :eusa_shifty: ?

I'm quick to tell others to give me their news, but forgot :eusa_doh: to tell either John or my own web site master of my own news.

Dear oh dear oh dear…..etc.

Den :cry:

Will Sri Lankas finest get a mention? :badgrin:

Ferg,

Not in the first edition, sorry to disappoint you :cry: !

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

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

Did he say what branch of aerospace he hails from :eusa_shifty: ?

Den :cool: .

Flintstone,

That would explain why it’s taken so long. :eusa_clap:

To bring this back on track.:arrow:

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

Serious :cool: questions most warmly welcome.

Den :biggrin: .

Bloomin eck - they didn't have to work too hard to knock you down did they :eusa_think: methinks you've had too much of the christmas spirit already :eusa_dance: :eusa_sick:

Was I reading that right - £1 delivered to your door, cracking bargain. Well done Den.

The offer’s open to member of this forum too! :eusa_shhh:

New Cobra mag for a quid. ! :eusa_drool: 244pages including Rally Design catalogue. All colour. 11 Major articles. Bargain!

That’s if you’re agreeable, Big Cheese. :eusa_shifty:

Den :eusa_drool:
JG 12 Dec 2003, 9:46pm
Thats mighty generous of you Den, I'm sure there will be plenty of takers - would be daft not to.

Cheers, John

Emmm!!!!

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

Den. :cry:
Ex-Biker 13 Dec 2003, 9:00pm
How much for the Rally Design catalogue? :biggrin:

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

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. :eusa_dance:
kitcarman 14 Dec 2003, 1:34am
Mark,
Yes, you did hear right. :badgrin: We released the Jan 04 issue a little early in an attempt to beat the usual Christmas retailing gremlins. :cool:

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

What’s for sure is that the Feb issue will be early :eusa_drool: , because it’s going to the printer before Christmas :eusa_dance: . 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 :biggrin: !

Cheers :cool: .
Ferg 14 Dec 2003, 6:55pm
I don't much care for Cobras myself, Mark.
I'm more of a Libra man, did I mention that?? :biggrin:

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

Libra?

Strange that, I'm a Libra. :idea:

Never heard of a Libra kit car though. Who makes them? :shock: Is it one of these new companies like RV Dynamics? :icon_twisted:





Only joking mate, I know wars have been fought over less.

Do you see an icon near the quote button that has an 'x' in it? It's that one if you do.

If you don't see it (which you should for your own posts only) then your stuffed :eusa_doh: :biggrin:

Cobra Magazine - Free!!!! :badgrin:
OK Chaps! Happy Christmas! :biggrin:

I sold about 20 of my new Cobra magazine to members of the CRC forum at £2 each, then I lowered the price to £1 each and shifted about a further 30. However, I don’t actually want their (or your) money :eusa_naughty: .

What I’d really really like to know what you think of it :cool: . So to that end, I’m intending to send out thousands of free copies by post.

The offer is open to all :eusa_shhh: who care to e-mail me with their name and address.

Hozat!!!!

Den.

Den

I think you've got my address. :confused:

I've got a mate who'll read the Cobra mag and I can have the Rally design catalogue then.:eusa_shhh:

Mark
kitcarman 16 Dec 2003, 9:21pm
Mark,
You’re on the list mate! :eusa_clap:

Anyone else out there want to join him? :eusa_shhh:

Den. :biggrin:
