Yep, me too. I go out of my way not to read it every month.

 

I don't understand the considerable hatred here for MC2. If you don't like the product, why do you devote so much mind space to it? :crazy::crazy:

 

If Barry was not in charge of the rag, I mean mag it could be so much better.

 

So it's (none of my business) personal? Or is it just disappointment with content and execution?

 

It's never personal it's just business. The mag used to be good a few years back.

 

read the last 16 pages. it's all there.

 

Hey Dave, I'll look into some older issues and see if I notice a difference. What is it that you notice as a difference? More importantly, how/what would you change?

 

I did. That's why I asked the question.

 

I like your ideas. They should just skip the news because now it's history. The club coverage is a great idea.

 

I couldn't agree more. While Barry is a decent enough guy to talk to (and he really does care about the MINI/Mini community, I believe) he has way too much on his plate. I understand the cost constraints of running a business, but ya gotta spend money to make money, as the old saying goes. (And I really hated spending $75K for a new spray booth) But it has to be done. Divide an conquer.

Any magazine that has a news/current affairs section is wasted space. Like Nathan said, anything in print is history at best. I'd like to see more on our cars. Who modded what and how. Why did they pick their wheels or intake or tune, etc.

I too gave up on the website. It really needs a refresh or an update or at least some attention. It doesn't build any real enthusiasm for the magazine honestly.

Hopefully Barry will read this and take some criticism to heart. I'd love to see MC2 be awesome. Maybe one day.

 

Is that true? I had heard they went out of business but had no idea they moved to another company. I bought the Palo Uber rear wing and front scoop from them 5 years ago. Its a great rear wing and to this day I have never seen either one on another MINI. I get tons of compliments on both of them, more so on the wing though, with people asking where I got it and where they can get one.

 

Ok. Thanks for clarifying.:crazy:
