My car is featured in the January 2013 issue of Modified Magazine! Go buy it now! :) I thought folks might get a kick of out a DSM still making the pages of a car magazine. Here are scans of the feature, but please go pick up the issue!

Pages 3 and 4. They goofed and listed the car as a 95 despite my corrections to the writer. It's a 99:

Pages 4 and 5. I'm embarassed with these engine shots... man was it a mess in there. I didn't spend much time beautifying the engine bay. It's changed quite a bit since the shoot (which took place May 2012) for the better but I expect a lot of you will be ridiculing my race car's engine bay being so disorganized. It's getting better, honest!:

I couldn't upload higher res scans than these due to the limitations here on dsmtuners.com, but if anyone would like higher res scans let me know. I also have the full res (which are huge) versions of all photos in the shoot, and I can share those for personal use only as well.

Oh for s and g's I had a small picture and column in the Nov 2012 issue of Grassroots Motorsports Magazine for my participation in the 2012 Ultimate Track Car Challenge in July:

Congrats and I'll read the article while I shop for groceries and throw it on candy shelf before checking out ROFL
 
Congrats! Looks good!
 
Congrats man, always love to see DSM's or anything 4G63 powered in magazines. I hope to one day be featured in a magazine with the VR4.
 
Sweet to see you finally got a date for its release. I remember when you shared the news of you appearing in mod. Couldn't have ask for a better car to represent the dsm community.
 
Awesome spread.


How do you mix up a 95 and a 99? Not only are the numbers totally separate from each other on the keyboard, but I thought these are supposed to be car guys? Most real wrenchers would be appauled if you mixed up years (and half generations)..
 
Thanks everyone!

Regarding the 95/99 mixup, it was some confusion on the writer's part rather than a typo. I told him the story about how I started with a 95, and then how I lost that 95 and replaced it with a 99, but he forgot about the switch when writing the article and thought it was a 95 all along. I corrected him when I read a rough draft but it seems that correction only made it to parts of the feature and not everywhere. They left out a sponsor of mine too. Even gave Andrew Brilliant a Ph.D. (which he doens't have). So not the best editing...

They even left out what I think is one of the best shots from the photo shoot:
