Big Bird, one great way to maximize your chances to go to a national event like the LSX Shootout. All of the major cars magazines are looking for article-worthy vehicles at that LSX/NMCA race.

Another way is to take a few good pictures of your car and send them to someone on the staff. Before you do that, keep in mind that the ride needs to be NICE. Cool looking wheels add too.

I'm not sure they are willing to feature an import, even if it is GM powered.


Maybe they thought you didn't have enough chrome under the hood

The LSX Shootout is in the new issue that has the SAM HOSS SS on the cover. There is a shot of your car Dave in there.

man that sucks. I liked having them local for all the E-town events they would shoot for the mag.Hopefully they still will have someone local to shoot the E-town events. My fingers are crossed. It's always nice to see your car in there mag. My car was on a cover shot before as well as part of a shootout. It's the best mag in my mind but then again all I want to read about is LS-LSX stuff anyway

Scott posted in this thread already.

They feature Corvettes, but if you notice, most issues are a little bit of this, little bit of that.
