The summer has certainly brought the cars out, if the cars I’ve seen while out and about are anything to go by. Even though we’re constantly being told we’re in the depths of the worst recession in 60 years, there’s defiance in people that means they’re still finding a way to enjoy themselves, and inevitably that means driving their cars. One of the best things for me is living in a high street not far from Bill Shepherd’s Mustang showroom down in Byfleet, as the cars visiting there regularly make a pass (or three) which echoes off all the shop-fronts and right in through my flat window – bliss on a Saturday afternoon!


The other thing about the decent weather recently was going to the Main Event at Santa Pod. I haven’t been to an FIA meet for ages, having followed the more ground roots scene for many years as organiser and sponsor of various racing meets, but I urge anyone who hasn’t made the trip to do it as soon as they can. The Main Event was awesome and taking my two sons relived the magic for me when I first made a visit. They were blown away by the noise and speed of the cars, mostly the Top Alcohol cars and Pro Mods, but also the Monster Trucks, and the first Podshop I passed meant I was out of pocket a tenner to buy toy racers (for them, obviously). Hopefully the experience will live with them for many years.

Inside the latest issue...
 


Eibach have been known for years as experts in suspension - now they turn their hands to the latest from Dodge - the 425hp Hemi Challenger.

Inside this issue...

The Mach 1 Mustang was the bargain muscle car aimed to fill the gap between the big-block cars and regular base V8 models. Ian Colley's 1970 model is still going strong today, and finding use in all forms of motorsport.

Inside this issue...

For Mopar fans the legendary Super Bee name is held in high regard. So what did one Mopar nut think of the latest version of the Charger when he drove one?
