I thought Neil promised to post us copies as soon as it was printed - "How Many?" was his comment I believe!

I've got the June issue, and it's NOT that one!

So I guess it's the July issue. I'm off to the shops this lunchtime for a looksie!

Left home early to do some work. The new Revs was in so that ideas out of the window.

Stef gets his five minutes of fame, although in the way he wants !!.

The first picture of him trying to look like Eddie Irvine and standing next to an STI is bad enough. The next one with a worried look and the third one a series of pictures proving to us all that Stef is more at home off track than on.

"Stef Reader wins the Sliding Backwards onto the grass with brakes locked award"

The other comment I liked

"Its Stefs turn to see if his ***** are as big as his mouth. He's spent more time at Santa Pod than the people that work there"

I wont spoil the rest go buy it!

Cheers Jonathan, you muppet!

It's not out in the shops until later this week, how'd you get it? You've made it worse now 'cos I can't go and get it yet.
I knew they'd put them piccis of me going into the grass in the feature....little gits.
I had just found out that it's much harder to get the car sideways on a left hand bend. No wonder they were so keen for me to try! You wait 'til I speak to them.... Oh, and the cheesy 'Eddie Irvine' style picci wasn't my idea either!
Hopefully the article also gets across what a laugh doing it was, and mentions somewhere the gargantuan demolition of the Cossie lads as well.
I spoke to Neil and Phil from the mag a few days ago, and they both reckon it was one of the best articles the mag had done. Would you agree Jonathan?
Still, the rest of us that DON'T subscribe to the 'politically incorrect magazine' that is REVS will have to wait a few days to find out...

Stef.
PS Just got off the phone to Neil, the deputy ed'. Little poo, he was in fits of laughter when he knew that I knew they'd put them picci's in! I suggest everyone boycotts the mag and doesn't buy it!

PPS The rest of the team and I are doing a signing session at WHSmiths in Northampton this Saturday between 10am and 2pm if anyone's interested.

Hee Hee, little buggers aren't they?
I've just managed to blag a copy from the REVS offices, as I couldn't find it in any local shops.
I have to say that I honestly think it's a top article, well written and some good piccis too (except the first one! )..
As with all journalism, they've 'added' a few things to make it read better. The extra injection of competetiveness between Craig and I is very good for example.
They've also scored it so that what was a 4-0 victory for us (based on category victories) is now a 7-4 victory (based on actual events won). The dyno runs therefore gave the Cossie lads four points.
This was apparently done to reduce the Cossie embarrasment of being whitewashed!
Still, the whole point of the article (in my eyes) was to prove that Scoobies are superior in performance terms than Cossies with considerably more power. The fact that every Cossie won the dyno test, and was then beaten by the Scoob in the category below it on the track only further re-inforces this point.
A quick pat on the back to the rest of the team, James H, Craig H and 'mystery Stef' for a job well done!
The king is dead....long live the king!

Stef.
PS It's the issue with a blue Saxo on the front, NOT a red Pug.

Well done Stef (and team?) Scoobies Rule
I'll certainly get hold of a copy if I can. I'll have to let my mate with a Cossie have a look and see if he thinks the journalism is as good as you reckon .

Stef,

Glad you didn't tell me to much about the article when we was down at Cadwell! Picked it up next day!

Nice one. Especially if your in to the "cossie Vs scoobie " scene.

See Ya!
