That said, I don't disagree with your opinion about the delay between print and other media so Racer has a website for the latest news and features, and then this allows the magazine to follow it up with in-depth coverage with more information that can be learnt over time.

For sure we would all like a magazine with only coverage of the class or classes that we are into but if that was the case, we would never learn about new ones or ideas that can cross over.

perhaps a change of name might be the answer , there is a good deal of difference between racing rc cars and just playing around with them. the magazine name radio race car clearly implies the mag is for racing rc cars.

the only problem i can foresee is the one brought by the member starting the thread if you buy a mag with that title you would expect it to be about racing and not someone trying to put a truck on top of a great pile of stones.
