May just be me growing into a grumpy old man. That R&T site completely summarizes why I no longer pay attention to Road and Track and many othef buff magazines.

QUOTE(Superhawk996 @ Feb 22 2021, 01:48 PM)  May just be me growing into a grumpy old man. That R&T site completely summarizes why I no longer pay attention to Road and Track and many othef buff magazines. You may be a grumpy old man...but as a likely much younger guy I whole heartedly agree. Junk. It's sad-I used to really look forward to reading those magazines just a bit over a decade ago. |
