Flat Out Magazine will no longer be published. It will folded into a new monthly magazine called, Dirt Monthly.
It will cover open wheel racing, Dirt late models and modifieds.

I read the first sentence and my heart skipped a beat.

I'm okay now.

Just curious where you found this information? I just got my renewal notice and if this is the case I will not be renewing but when I go to their website there is no mention of a change.

If its true, its just a sign of the times. The web has all but killed all print media, which is a shame. I remember having to wait nearly a month after a big race to find out who won, like anything that happened at Eldora(I'm in Georgia). It was exciting, no instant gratification, just prolonged foreplay(LOL). Having a magazine cover all of dirt doesn't hurt my feelings but I understand the purist POV.

So can we say Flat-Out is; OUT?

Pretty much did the same thing with Open Wheel. Circle Track came in it's place, called them & told them I didn't want that & if they couldn't give me anything similar to that I just want a refund.

The website still says nothing about it. They still show 3 distinct magazines available. They do offer a discount if you subscribe to all 3...

Sounds like it will now come out more often than Flat Out did and adding Taxi Cabs. Oh well.
