I read GRM pretty much exclusively these days. It's coming from a slightly older person's perspective than mine, but I appreciate the detatchment from any trendy "scenester" crap and that they don't assume you already know everything.
It seems like all of the cool people left recently, which would explain the lack of cool features and tech articles. I picked up an old copy of SCC a while back and couldn't believe how much better the writing and technical content was, and how much more of it there was. It's only gotten worse since then.

I agree that GRM is the best car mag I've read in recent times. Actually, thanks for reminding me- I've been wanting to subscribe. I think I was holding off because one or another of the auto-x sanctioning bodies offers a free subscription with membership... is it Nasa-X? I figured I'd just take advantage of it whenever I can get out to an autocross.
