More bad industry news, another automotive publication gets the ax. Rumor has it, Turbo Magazine, who was one of the OG tuner books has ended their fifteen year run. I remember back in high school picking up a Turbo Magazine  and flipping through hundreds of pages of sales ad’s and crazy tuner cars. Since then, Turbo’s page count has dwindled. This is the same story for many of the other tuner books out there, five years ago  you’d be holding a small bible in your hands, hundreds of pages and tons of ads to the  point where you wouldn’t want to read the whole thing.
Maybe online magazines are the way to go? It looks as though the tuner market is really struggling, I am interested to see how things go next year. Stay tuned!
