All Torque 83 - August 2010

[poprock]

Stop checking your doormats, the magazine’s a little behind schedule this month.

It’s due to be mailed out on Thursday, so hopefully most people will get theirs Friday/Saturday.

I hope it’s worth the wait and you all enjoy it!

I can stop living in the porch then I'm sure it'll be worth waiting for!

Yup mine arrived this Sat morning. You'll find it's well worth waiting for Jim - a really good read as ever.

Paul B's account of the BBQ evening hosted by DAM Creative for Central brought back memories of a marvellous evening.

Good to see a write-up of your 44 Tony - was intrigued by the "gills" on the wings as soon as I turned to this page so the main photo was a great attention getter.

Thanks for including my 928 fuel filter write-up, which sits well with the 944 clutch feature opposite as a front-engined maintenance themed spread (and the house caption style reinforces this, as you suggested when we discussed my crude efforts at annotating pics).

Looking forward to settling down with coffee and the mag later today to read the whole thing in detail.

Well mine's 4 times better this month !

I was hopeing this hasnt happened to every member as the cost would hit someone but reading this topic it looks like it's just me that's been so lucky

Three came in one package and one in another

At least you won't be bored when it is pi**ing down with rain, like it is in Lanark right now.

I think ROs are supposed to get extra copies, so they have some to put out at events etc … you’re probably still on the RO list until the next one comes round!

(See, there was a perk to all that hard work.)

I know it was maybe a bit odd to put the same photo on the cover and the middle page spread, but it was just such a great image! Phil Jones outdid himself with that one. Phil always photographs the Festival of Speed for us, and that’s a lovely shot of a rarely-seen car. If anyone wants to learn a bit more about the 550 Coupe, Porsche posted a video about taking it to Goodwood on their (very nice) Origin website: http://origin.porsche.com/uk/videos/por ... t-goodwood

That'll be it Tony, but I am still waiting for my RO copies
Fortunately, I got my member's copy so I do have something to read. Been out all day, so only just picked it up off the mat - looking good so far!!

[tr7v8]

Got mine this morning, been shopping & then had visitors so no chance to read it. Looks like not all the RO copies have gone out cos mine ain't 'ere either.

Looks good from a flick through!

nothing here in Ayr either

[Lee 944]

Postie has been, I'll retire to the library for a while. Looking very good with a quick flick through.

[Red Rider]

Nothing here, have a feeling I'm not yet on the mailing list...

[tr7v8]

My 3 RO copies arrived today which is good. I could do with 2 x 3 though as they get given out quickly. I'm off to the US this weekend & I'll need some copies to take with me. More info on that in a new thread.

[ewan221]

Mine came today as well

I've been living in the shed (but that's another story) and mine hasn't arrived yet
