I received my copy of CCT today and was thrilled at the coverage of Slick Stock III in Kansas City. Thank you for including Slick Stock and the guys that make the club great in CCT. It is gratifing to see all the trucks and relive the best four days of 2008! Again, thank you. Casey
From Kansas City the home of Slick Stock III.

Tell me about it Gary!, I subscrbe and I know I won`t get it for another 3 weeks yet!

Subscriber copies usually come first. I was at a B&N yesterday and the CCT on the shelf did not have anything in it.

Can someone tell me what 'month' it is on the cover?

It is the August Issue.. I really like the layout and article that was written. I have been watching our membership section and we have had quite a few new members the last couple of Days........Kid

I just got my issue today. John and his crew did a great job with the photos and the writeup. Should generate some extra interest in the next SS.

Darrell, interesting stat to note on the membership! You got a keen eye.

Just got mine today. GREAT JOB guys! Congratulations to Gerry, Greg, Kid and everyone else who made SS-III such a success. Also, thanks to John Gilbert for the great job of including the story and photos in CCT. It "almost" makes me want to host another one in York ;-)

Thanks...Sinc

Anyone know how to get a subscription and or where you can buy CCT at? Thanks guys, Lee

Thanks John Gilbert for such a good article.
But there is another person responsible for the excellent coverage of our event.
Its time for all of us to say a thank you to the man who took the pictures you all see in the article.
Most of the submissions were great pictures, but the format was to small to use in a magazine publication.
When you're shooting for a magazine spread, you need the highest quality you can get. I'm talking mega-pixles here.
Ask me how I know....
Like horsepressure, if big is good, bigger is better.
Those presses need high resolution for the printing process.
So, it was our own quiet (sometimes), unassuming, beer drinking, chili eating Max, who is by trade a professional photographer, is solely responsible for the pictures in John's spread.
And it should also be noted that the magazine is required to pay for submissions that are published.
Max generously donated his payment to the Slick Stock IV fund to the tune of several hundred dollars.
Max, thank you bro'.
But remember, no good deed goes unpunished.
And for the rest of us, in the future, if you're going to take photographs of a get together or project that you want to submit to a magazine, use the highest resolution your camera is capable of.
Trust me......
U@ss

Thats great that Slick Stock got such good coverage. I know John has also been good on the Yblocksforever website site too from time to time concerning coverage on that engine too in CCT. I've never met him but from what my Uncle told me at the SEMA show last year he was great to talk with and listened to what you had to say.

You are absolutely right Skip - Big Thanks to Max! He HAS to be a super pro to make my truck look that good.

Muchas Gracias Hombres, but I have to admit to everyone what I told Darrell the other night in Sunday chat. It was John Gilbert's idea to donate the money to Slickstock before he even wrote the article and I completely agreed with it. It was a great idea.

Honestly, I probably would've ended up putting every dime of that into my gas tank on my way to Iowa next year! But deep down, I feel better about the end result because I wouldn't have even had the opportunity to take ANY pics had there not been an awesome event like that to attend and I had a lot of fun doing it.

I believe there were a few other pics shown that weren't mine, hence the "Slick Sixties Crew" tag.

when does this issue hit the newsstands? i can't even find the mag locally. i guess i need to hit the box stores.
