I was just simply saying, if a magazine is covering numerous classes, make it appeal to EVERYONE! I.e, Give every class they cover the same amount of 'mag' time.
One of the things I thought of was maybe cut the mag into sections, Off road, On road, Crawlers/Monster trucks, Micro/12th and finally Equipment. I've checked and the RRCi has 112 pages, so if they split it into sections, each class would get 22 pages of coverage, and still leaves spare for advertisements etc...

I'm not intending to slag anyone or anything off (I don't have to buy or read it), merely posting an observation from my point of view. Praise must be given to the contributors; not sure if they get paid but without them, the mag would probably be an awful lot thinner.
Definitely agree with giving each covered class equal 'mag time' too.
