how's the weather Greg? it's sunny and 79 here in Tacoma:unibrow:

I'm not sure if its out yet. Is it the one with the third gen on the cover? If it is I need to go buy several because Rupp was kind enough to include a little write up on Best of Show's heroic SEMA thrash for our Camaro, and the general nature of SEMA builds yearly. And from the issue I saw, the rest of the stories are even better with highlights including a feature on the One Lap Camaro and maybe even Optima, maybe, I can't remember.

Matt

*edit* what is going on here in the west coast. Socal hasn't seen a blue cloud all week, there was even a possible tornado warning advisory in some of the coastal OC beach cities, yes tornado. And yet northwest has been warm and sunny???

Got my February issue today. Eric McClellan (MaxHarvard) shot the 3rd Gen for the cover. :thumbsup:

Steve Lenning's Feature is also in this issue. :cheers:

Haven't had a chance to really go through it, will later tonight. Congrats to everyone who made it in.

My experiance is that you REALLY want to get your subscription right from the CP's site! We have tried the third party co's and you never get an issue. I have signed up three times now (twice for myself and one for my dad) right at CP's site and got them in a timely manner!

I subscribed directly with CP,said my card was charged $34.97 for 18 issues although I haven't looked at my CC statement to make certain.

What's the 800# to check and see if I got screwed,lol...:_paranoid

Your modesty is overwelming... :rofl:

j/k.. hey, you should be proud. Your first shoot for us made the cover and the story you turned in was very well written and required VERY little editing. Congrats! :thumbsup:

Now get your ass out there and find us some more cars.. second and third gens are in short supply. :)

As for the magazine, subs are being delivered and they should just now be arriving at news stands.

Of course, if you like the magazine it's way cheaper to just subscribe.. just sayin'

LOL, thanks Steve! :thumbsup:

I still remember how pissed Nick got at me when I told him that I never proof-read anything and sent it to him 'as-is'. :lol:

I've got a 2 or 3 second and third gens on deck right now as we speak! :)

X1000 :yes:

I am soooo happy that my issue came before we left on our trip. We had a travel day from hell on Friday. When we were getting close to Denver the pilot got on the com and said "The fog in Denver has come in with a VENGEANCE". Our plane got redirected to CO Springs where we sat for a couple hours and then flew back to Denver. We missed our other flight and spent 4 hours getting the run around at customer services desks. We stood in line for over an hour at one just to get told that we had to go to another. Then after an hour in line at the other desk we got told to go back to the first one. :mad: We finally caught a flight to Dallas and then another to Cabo. We made it to our destination about 12 hours later than we originally planned and were only missing one bag. :rolleyes: Anyways we made it and did get our bag the next day. All that hassle just makes the Coronas taste better! :cheers:

Thanks a million for a great issue to help me keep my sanity during our travels!!! :thumbsup:

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully no one was hurt. Thanks for the heads up! We're probably not leaving the resort. We're here for a "work" trip. It's a dealer meeting for the equipment we sell. It's been a pretty good time catching up with people that we don't get to see very often...

Just got our copy of Camaro Performers here at Anvil and I was blown away with the awesome coverage of bad ass Camaros. Our own Jim Shipka and Steve Lenning are in the magazine with their 67 and 69 Camaros. The photography is fantastic, and the coverage is great. Two very nice cars and much deserved coverage.

Dang.. you're right.. it get's confusing at times. Since we do 9 issues the whole "which months we skip" gets confusing.

Doesn't help that I'm currently working on May (turns out we skipped March instead of Feb this year)..

Nothing that you're REALLY going to like.. believe it or not we have a slew of PT cars so we try to spread the love over several months.

But I will check my rundown and see where you're falling. If your car was a third gen it would be in the next issue. lol

Don't worry though, it will be worth it.

I finished reading mine last night,really good issue.:yes:

I personally appreciated the coverage of the nostalgia Camaro funny cars,that was cool.I enjoyed the tech articles as well,Tony is great.

I saw Dave Pozzi's name mentioned several times throughout the issue and I know that was him hiding under the welding helmet,lol...didn't read mention of Mary one time,must be a record.:_paranoid

Awesome article on James Shipka's gorgeous Camaro and the pictures were just stunning Steve..!:hail:

Real pleased with my first issue,looks like I'm in good hands...:cheers:

I agree. If we didn't have that little bit of extra time, we might be giving up a bit of quality at times. Plus it gives us the opportunity to get in some track time. You can never have enough track time in my book. Plus, I need all the practice I can get.

I see your point on the quality. I like it the way it is now (format and quality). And I guess if I had MORE to read I would spend LESS time working on the car. And later, driving it. :thumbsup:
