Default Excellence Magazine - August 2011 - Excellent

This magazine just keeps getting better.

Great article from Chris Harris (my favorite automotive journalist for many years). Hint: Sebring

Fantastic comparison of the 997.2 GT3 RS and 997 GT2 RS, including lap times and one of my all-time favorite drivers (Johannes Van Overbeck).

No, I won't scan the magazine, stop by Barnes and Noble and buy the magazine. Even better subscribe to the magazine, it is the best $25 you will invest this year.

Great work Pete.

Plus, if you subscribe, you get it way ahead of the news stand so that you don't have to go in to the store every other day asking, "got it yet?"

Does Excellence come in the mail wrapped in plastic? One of the things I hate about subscribing is the mail delivery mangling the magazine so I usually pick it up on in the store.
