besides, the kind of people who read SS hoping to become automotive authorities are the same kind of people that put an intake on their mom's grocery-getter and should simply be ignored.

I still read super street and scc. have a subscription to both actually and they expire in feb 04. I plan on renewing both of them as well. I just read the mags for fun because like you said, some of the articles are entertaining and it's fun to see what project they are working on next. I like scc better then ss but they are both still good magazines IMO
