    I am afraid that will have to wait until the Evo video next year but they will do a far better more professional job than I could.

    Have you driven the car on the road and how drivable is it when it comes to turbo lag and traction?

    Only a bit. Turbo lag is actually better than the standard car. Traction, I have yet to find out about.......

    Must be a rush when the boost comes on. Can't wait to read about it in evo.

    Going to be well worth my €13 (yes, It's quite a bit more expensive than in the UK unfortunately!).

    I agree with this! I'd love to see your passion and attention to detail on another project as it was nothing but a pleasure reading through this and following along with you over the years.

    Wonderful news! Now I just need to figure out where I can order/pick this issue up in Canada/USA.

    Can't wait for the books, now :D

    I usually trek across the street to Barnes & Noble as they carry EVO, hope this info helps.

    Thanks! I'm a fairly fresh transplant to the US (work-related) so I'm not necessarily familiar with all the stores here :)

    I understand. I just happen to live across the street from a B&N and will occasionally just stop by and roam for at least one hour BEFORE I even hit the magazine stand. Good luck.

    He said the issue will be out December 2, not that it was going to be the December issue.

    In the back of EVO 215, in the "next month" section, it says "Michelotto F40 LM tested" along with the previously mentioned December 2nd on sale date (UK). Richard Meadan's track record with this type of article is very good. Can't wait!

    I have literally just signed off the final proof which goes to the printers tomorrow, no more fiddling, and let me assure you it is a really great article, Dickie having done the car proud. Some of the pics are screen saver quality, at least for me. Even having seen and read it, I cannot wait for publication, a very exiting and flattering summit for the project. I wish I could post it for you all now.....

    Looking forward to this issue coming through the letterbox. I wonder if it will feature on the front cover? The front cover on the subscriber editions are sometimes worth framing! ;-)

    I have the American edition of evo #216 in my hand, and Traveler's F40 is not in it. However, it is the eCOTY (evo CAR OF THE YEAR) issue, so maybe there wasn't room.

    A fascinating and enjoyable journey Tim, and I too am looking forward to the EVO piece. Would be cool if FChat was able to allow you to edit this thread into your key date order highlights.

    Tim thanks for the tip regarding the December 2nd UK date. Will have to go with airmail delivery from the UK for that issue. For the last two years they don't even ship the December issue out to Canada for some strange reason. It is not just EVO but other UK December release magazines to...
