Let's Tell Mm&ff What We Think Of Excessive Motorsports!

[Hethj7]

ummm, good post.

1) I live about 40 minutes from Blue Springs....therefore the only reason I would do business with them is because they are close to me. I first ordered my GT-40 intake from them about 4 years ago. I got the run around on why it wasn't in for probably a month. I was told it was on backorder, which it may have been. But, I cancelled my order, called up Summit, and had a GT-40 intake at my front door in about 4 days (and at a cheaper price). Now, in four years things may have cahnged, but I don't know. I know other people in the KC (btw, blue Springs is a suburb of KC) area that don't think too highly of them either.
I will say they seem to have a very knowledgeable tech staff though.

2) I dont' really care about the advertising in MM&FF. That is where the magazine generates most of its revenue, so if someone wants to pay the money to advertise with them, I guess that is fine by me.

3)I wouldn't cancel my subscription over advertisements of Excessive Motorsports.

4)MM&FF may very well be more concerned with profits than its readers. But, they are a business so that is somewhat understandable. They need to strike a balance between profits and caring for their readers. Take their tests and reviews for what they may or may not be worth. When advertisers are shelling out a ton of money to MM&FF, chances are the reviews in the magazine will not be critical even if they should be.
