I respect your opinion. I wouldn't say that Hypertune got everything right but I still have not found another local tuning magazine that are better than them. Unless people actually suggested a viable alternative, I'll be sticking to Hypertune.I think when it comes to English prose and the use of flowery vocab, Hypertune is no different from a lot of other foreign tuning mags such as Super Street or even Import Tuner, although personally I don't think they are too bad compared to the smack talking in Super Street. All these tuning mags tend to write in an irreverent tone which seems to be part of a import culture to be 'cool'. Just something you and I won't be able to do anything about. Mark has a habit of telling a lot of background stories about the cars to set the mood of an article and this will likely not sit very well with some readers. I don't mind it much. Often when I don't care to read about his storytelling bits, I just jump straight into the meat of the article where he actually starts talking about the car proper. By comparison, his colleagues Cimatt and Murali and ex-Hypertune editor Hisham Jahudi write in a more conservative manner. Different styles I guess. There's still a lot to look forward in the magazine in my opinion. I like the tech articles by Dennis Krishnan, the frequent product reviews. They are also doing regular reviews of tyre models in every issue now. All these are good info. If it wasn't for the mag's reviews and the ads they carry, I wouldn't have known enough to hook up with Powerzone (they are doing up my car) or even get in touch with the GAB agent in Perak. I know people say you can get detailed advice at car forums, but its a nightmare for newbies like me to get anything sensible at forums. Try asking a simple question at the forums. You often end up with a whole range of answers and have to sift through a lot of stuff to get what you want to know, and many times forumers don't give sound advice in a timely fashion. A well published magazine offers a very good reference point. As I said before, Hypertune served my purposes well. .....and no complaints about the featured chicks either...they are hot LOLBut I do agree that this month's Hypertune editorial column should not have been commandeered as a platform to trade insults. As it is, it was not even an editorial at all. If Mark had wanted to respond to personal attacks he should have done it in a more appropriate environment. Using the magazine as a vehicle to air his indignation is a blemish in judgement, I think, eventhough I sympathize with the reason for his anger.</blockquote>
