It does not make sense, but so is life.
I did have another magazine offer to run a feature article with cover shot, named "How to build a cover truck, for another magazine". haha
Mick are you speaking of The One Lap Camaro feature that was done in Feb?
Steve what ever happened to running the feature in "WHEAT PENNY"?

Maybe they didn't have a good shot.. maybe they chickened out on running a black truck.. who knows..
We pick the cover car based on what looks good on the cover and not on the car.
The One Lap Camaro suffers from a fate I mentioned.. an overabundance of first gen pro-touring cars. We try not to have two in one issue.
It's not in December since that was an all black car issue.. It wasn't in November since we had Jackass and wanted to quickly follow the Hot Rod story.
We didn't mind holding it since we just did a six pager on it running the Nevada Open Road race. Trust me, I shot it and it will run. Just one of those things.
Then again all a person has to do is contact their magazine guy and ask "Hey, when is my car going to run??" Communication is a two way street.
