Turbo Magazine is now dead too.

That really only leaves DSport left -- once was towards the Drag racing theme, but has been changing more towards road racing, time attack, drift and a little drag racing with some street car articles, and decent tech articles.

Primedia killed Turbo and SCC a long time ago. The buyout that happened to Primedia didn't hurt anyone other than the buyer who paid way too much money for a dead publisher like Primedia. Turbo magazine had less than 10,000 subscribers left -- making it not profitable to sell it at the newsstand. SCC was around the same subscriber count last month, so this was seen coming this direction.
