Default RIP: GM High Tech Performance, Popular Hot Rodding and Camaro Performers

Apparently these magazines got cancelled and it was announced today. Huge blow to the magazine industry for our hobby...

Popular Hot Rodding?! That is by far my FAVORITE magazine. I can't believe it.

You sure? I was under the impression they just changed their web presence by folding into Super Chevy's website. (according to their facebook page as of yesterday)

Just what I heard from a pretty reputable source. Hope someone more in the know can verify and prove me wrong. Like all those magazines...

Cant say thats a big surprise, I personally havent opened up a Magazine, newspaper or phonebook in years unless its one of our customers cars in the magazine. Sounds harsh but thats reality, its an Online world now.

Pretty much my thoughts too. I used to live for my magazines to drop each month and read them non stop from cover to cover. Now having the web you have a magazine with unlimited pages with more pictures and material that you could ever read and look at.
