No more Road & Track "Speed Magazine"

man, I really liked this mag, kinda a grown up version of sport compact car. They are going all web based this year, and my subscription is being converted to R&T.

Guess it didn't do as well on the new stands as they hoped.

I really liked it too. It was like a tuner magazine for the older demographic. The final edition has 3 months worth of articles. It was really a great read. Apparently they didn't market it well enough though. In fact in the last edition the editors thanked the readers for subscribing and said something along the lines of "we know it was really heard to find in stores" or something like that. I never had trouble finding it though. The Safeway supermarket by my house always had the latest copy.
