February 2008. It has the SOM Dick Harrell Camaro on the cover. I've had the issue for a while, so I'm thinking a new one should be coming soon.

Well I'm looking at the May 08 issue sitting here. Its subtitle reads The Outher Limits with the Live a Little Safety inserts. Now I'm getting last issue alerts that my subscription runs out in Janurary but it seems I'm not getting the latest news with the latest issue. How about RPM in Garner setting 2 new worlds records at the LSX shootout? Hell that was months ago. But sure enough last month issuse had a guy shooting for the fastest Nitros Camaro. HELLO! Will I reup NO! You can damn sure tell these guys didn't work thru Christmas like I did. I am very disappointed to say the least with GMHTP MMagazine. Anybody?

i thought about subscribing so it saves me a trip to the book store, but why subscribe when the issues never come out on time. they are lacking alot of stuff for sure. even my wife says " why do u buy that magazine. it only has 10 pages." lol..it doesnt even have a tech section. MM&FF has like 4 pages of tech questions. and plus, we need more build ups and also more head to head in performance parts. the best they did was just the airlid. they should do a header vs. header shootout and things like that. instead of just putting the 10 best budget bolt ons for your lsx car!!

There used to be a member that posted on here that worked at the facility that prints GMHTP.

I've gotten magazines before that were "custom" from the printing facility too Makes you wonder if your 8 missing pages destroyed an expensive printing press or binding machine?

With the internet offering instant information, the sponsors would be wasting money to do such a thing if you ask me. They're best bang for the buck is right here online.

Yea i am completely pissed off at GMHTP. I wont be renewing my subscription. The reasons above are 100% correct. 9 issues a year? what the heck? There are thousands of new posts on here everyday with new questions about a car they stopped making 6 years ago, that I wouldn't think of in my wildest dreams. all they need to do is get on here and read for 5 mins and they would have a whole dictionary of ideas for articles. Hell, I think there are more pages of ads in the back then there are articles. And yes I am frustrated to see 5.0 mustang magazines that put ours to shame in quality and depth of coverage.
