Those RCN covers, Trombonista, were always special. Thanks for adding them to the conversation. I also wrote for RCN in the mid-late 80s, a speedway column. I've also added a SCW which I bought it because of the cover. The Firebird came out ahead of the GT Falcon by a thin margin in the road tests and added to my motivation to own a Firebird some day. It took another 25 years. And what about the Hell Drivers?! They have to call it "precision driving" now, but Hell Drivers is a much more evocative description! Australian Speedway News is the first speedway magazine I bought, and again, it was because of the cover, which captured the action at the old Tralee track in Canberra. And the Wheels scoop of the EA Falcon: just how did they get their hands on the photos 3 years ahead of its release? And one more thing, of these four magazines, only Wheels still publishes.
