YOU CAN HAVE MODEL CAR RACING DELIVERED TO YOUR COMPUTER & YOUR MAILBOX

BOTH THE ‘PAPER’ COPY AND THE INTERNET VERSION OF EVERY PAGE ARE JUST $35 ---THAT SIXTH ISSUE IS JUST 25 CENTS

 IF YOU WANT ONLY THE INTERNET VERSION (WITH NO PAPER COPIES), PAY JUST  $19.95 FOR SIX ISSUES

When you subscribe for $35.00 your sixth issue is just 25-cents---you save $6.70 over the newsstand price---and you will be notified by email that your Internet copy is ready to download the moment the paper magazines are printed and ready to be mailed to your door. Subscriptions received after December 16 will begin with the March/April 2008 number 38 issue, which we expect to ship February 15. Note that NO back issues will be available as either paper copies or on the Internet, only the current issues, beginning with #38. Subscribe now!

When you subscribe to Model Car Racing you now get free access to the magazine on the Internet at www.modelcarracingmag.com. To see a sample of the Internet version of the magazine click on Internet. The $35.00 yearly subscription now includes both the “paper” copy and an access code so you can see the magazine the day it leaves the printer. If you prefer only the Internet version (with no paper copy mailed to your door), the price for 6 issues is just $19.95. This will finally make the magazine more accessible to enthusiasts in countries outside the United States.

We process orders about the 15th of each month so there will about a week or two delay in your receiving email notification that your first Internet issue is available to you on the web. Mail delivery of the paper copies can add a week or so to that. You will be notified by email that each of the next five Internet issues are available on the same day that paper copies are mailed, which is about the first of every even month.

If you are a current subscriber and you also want access to the Internet version, you must request that option and send us your email address and mailing address with zip code (to modelcarracingmag@hotmail.com) to gain access to the Internet version of the magazine for the remainder of your subscription. We can only process Internet additions for renewal subscriptions once for each issue so your Internet connection will be for the next available issue, after we have received your email address.

The Internet version of Model Car Racing cannot be downloaded for security purposes. You can, however, print one or all of the pages of the magazine for your own use, but be aware that the files are large and will take some time. The paper copies cannot, of course, be sold or distributed because they are protected by International copyright.

You still have an opportunity to acquire the original paper copies of the first six issues (1 through 6) of Model Car Racing magazine. There are a limited number of copies of the first through sixth issues of Model Car Racing magazine available as part of the special Limited Edition package that includes the complete first year of Model Car Racing magazine (issues 1-6 only) and a collector's edition Cadillac Northstar Le Mans car. (When the supply of Limited Edition packages is sold, this offer will end.) Note that some dealers should still have this package in stock, and any dealer can order it for you.

To subscribe to the paper and/or Internet versions of the magazine or to obtain the Limited Edition package, you have three choices:

1. Use our secure server to place an email order
2. Download the order blank from the "Subscribe" page and enclose a check, money order or credit card information
3. Buy individual magazines or the Scalextric Cadillac and the first six issues Limited Edition package from your local dealer or one of the other dealers listed the website.

Note to International Subscribers:
Beginning October 5, 2007 we can no longer accept orders from Canadian subscribers for the “paper” version of the magazine, but the remaining copies due on your subscription will be mailed as they leave the presses. New or renewal Canadian and other foreign subscriptions will no longer be accepted. We are sorry, but the postal services in most countries are taking 8 weeks and more to send magazines when they deliver them at all. Only subscriptions for the United States will be accepted. We have a network of dealers in Canada, most of Europe, Japan and in Australia listed on this website (just click on the word "Dealers" in the upper right of this page) that will be pleased to supply the magazine. These dealers can also supply the special package that includes the first six issues of the magazine and the Limited Edition Scalextric Cadillac Northstar LeMans car.
