If you attended RTTC, you may want to pick up a current (AUG/2010) copy of Car Craft. There is a huge spread covering the event, 5 pages, thanks to Jeff Smith. You may just see your car in the pages.

Very nice article even if he did point out that I won the pink hat. Is it true there is going to be another event in the Fall? If so I'm there, just one poor ol' Ford in a sea Chivolay's.

Am I in the photo credits? I gave them a bunch of shots and I've always wanted my stuff in Car Craft.. :)
In a couple of weeks out coverage will be out.. I think it's 8 pages.. I'm old and forgetful these days.
Gonna have to grab a copy of CC next time I'm in the office. Jeff sure can drive!

Man, can he ever??? No slouch and that's for sure. Turns out we used to autocross together back in the day and spent an hour at Costa Mesa reminiscing about it.

It's surprising how many Souce mags I've had images in..
Thanks!

I rarely pick up Car Craft, but I will check it out being that it features a Pro-touring event.

I always find hard to find magazines at Wal Mart. They seem to have copies that even Books-A-Million don't get.

I found mine at Rite Aid, which suprised the heck out of me. Car Craft can be a tough find on the stands sometimes. I had to buy 2 copies one for me and the other for my Aunt in FL.

I got mine in the mail, right after a buddy posted on my Facebook about my car being in there, lol.
So not too bad, a shot of the Road Runner in July Good Guys Gazette AND Car Craft. BETTER WATCH OUT CAMAROS, lol.

Looks like your scooping out Jon's GTO, the Malice Malibu was a few cars down from there. It is so cool to get great coverage, Pro-Touring is a force to be taken seriously. Look at all the events that are adding a auto-X to a car show/drag race.

I picked up a copy and my ride is in there too!
Of course you can only see the roof section... way out in the background. I recognize the rust coming through the paint.
Seems like no one is ever interested in photos of 41 year old paint jobs.
hoping to correct that condition this summer.

Sure they are, patina is well-regarded now and sometimes even artificially reproduced. Good luck with the paint job. With regards to my car (gold Trans Am seen parked in the article) paint is probably one of the most/least rewarding things I have done to it. (I never intended to get paint so soon, but after a van hit my car, it only made sense.)
On the plus side, people see a shiny car and generally give it a lot of respect. The car got a mention in Popular Hot Rodding a year ago and was lucky enough to sneak into the Car Craft picture.
On the negative side, I'm always stressing over damage to the paint. Tall speed bump? Messed up the paint on the front ground effects. Drop a socket? Horrible obvious scratch on the driver door. Run at RTTC? Sand blasted rear ground effects. Tag a cone at an autocross? Paint chip on one of the rear ground effects. Give my sister's friend a ride? He opens the door wide open and smacks a wall and scratches the passenger door. My friends lean on the car like they did back in high school . . . they'd just better not.
The paint on my Trans Am makes me really appreciate the current beater status of my daily driver fox Mustang.

I went back and looked,your right. I guess I was excited to see I made it in a magizine! hahahahaha
