    Sounds like a great idea. I think we need to get some coverage of events and shows in ND out there seeing how when ever i go any where people think we dont know anything about the scene or actually have one. For instance, i am in Reno, NV right now and talked to some people and the think there would not be any good cars up there.

        I think it would be cool if you did articles on some of the really nice cars in ND, or the surrounding area.

              if you want to do full length articles, and bio's, your gonna need a really good writer, and a lot of time. Your couldn't really get any subscirberers if your gonna do half ass covers on shows and such, since mostly everything in ND/MN that has to do with cars is talked about or atleast mentions on here...
              Good luck tho!

                Need some suggestions for some rides to feature. I guess I dont have too much of a clue in the import and compact scene, not accepted I guess because all I own is "redneck" pickups.

                I do know a nice ride when I see one, but need some suggestions from you guys for the who, what, and where they are.

                Going through my car show pics of this year, these three cars really caught my eye, but as I recall about the first one he was having some issues with the car and it wasnt complete.

                I guess if any of you three are on this site and would want to do a feature, you could PM me and we could work something out.

                I would also like nominations from you guys. The only way I am gonna make this happen is if I got the content.

                  Go to car shows and talk to the owners, or try to contact them, or have a submit your ride thing, where someone e-mails you pics of their car, with some of the things done to it.

                  Also, keep a variety, not just one type of car/truck.

                    Im not looking for subscribers. I guess when I mention the "online magazine" everyone assumes Im looking to make money.

                    It would be totally free. No subscribing, no need to register, nothing like that. Just go to the site and browse.

                    And while there is a lot of content out there, it would be a really good way to centralize for car shows. Everyone would know one source to get their events advertised, and everyone would know where to look to see what events are going on.

                    Gotta remember, not everyone knows about sites like fargostreet, imagine if everyone who had an event, on their posters put "for more info and application, go to www.mysite.com" pretty soon it would be the site to go to to see show coverage and to see what shows are going on.

                      You could do an article on the different clubs around the area, Ground Assault, Veritas, Sweet Dreamz, Combat R Zone, FOMOCOFA, and anyother clubs I may not know about. Say what they are all about like if they are more out for show, race, both, ametuers, car specific clubs. Interview different members and have pics of all the rides from the clubs, see what their plans are for attending shows, races, and other events. Also do something on some of the Major shops around the area Tintmasters, Typr R, Team Electronics, Site On Sound, Roadsounds, Paradise Audio, and other places in the surrounding area. Just some ideas......I would be willing to help you do this if you want help

                          For the first issue here are my ideas I have been tossing around:

                          First, the three shows for coverage:

                          Jamestown Winter Show
                          Toppers
                          Prime Steel

                          And I guess if there are indoor shows that I dont know about nearby, I will cover them too.

                          I want to do a club profile on Suedes Car Club.

                          And then I would like some more modern vehicles for features.

                          I would throw a shop profile into the mix too if I have time. (Shop owners PM me)

                          Then for future issues, more club profiles, features on specific areas, IE sport bikes, sport trucks, etc. Maybe do garage scene articles, on the guys who got real interesting buildups going on and doing the work themselves, if somebody wanted to do tech articles (leaning more towards tech articles that work across the spectrum of vehicles, like detailing or something).

                          Mustangdude, if you want to help PM me, thanks.

                              I also tihnk we should cover some of the races and that side of the scene too. Maybe do write ups on project cars. Do alot of stuff like that too.

                                remember, NOT JUST IMPORTS!!! If you wanbt to make it interesting, you'll need some different cars.

                                  Definitely isnt going to be all imports. Remember Im a pickup guy (both 4x4 and lowered) and im a old school hot rodder. I want to get a good deal of coverage for everything.

                                  And hardwood, I would like to cover races too, drag races, autocross, whatever. And there will be project cars coverage too.

                                  So really anyone, shops, clubs, individuals, whatever you have or building, if its something interesting, let me know.

                                    i only read the first page, but how about an online magazine associated with the sites? such as here at fargostreet and the northern animation site or whatever other sites there are around here.
                                    www.soundillusions.net has its online car audio magazine called momentum. they have the person in charge then various people write for it each month.
                                    i think it has been around now for 3 yrs or so.
                                    some months longer than others and some months it is missed, but it is always anticipated.

                                      i think that sounds like an awesome idea... i think it would be good to give trucks, muscle cars and bikes a little coverage too. id be willin to help out a little

                                        eek... been planning something very similar for a few months now....
                                        (waiting to come up with the time to put it into action)

                                        not so much an 'online magazine'....
                                        -but covering everything from shows to dirt-track in the area
                                        (more event promotion than event coverage)
                                        -quite a few other little things I have in mind to go along with it.

                                        1995 Mustang
                                        CAI, rimz, and springs.
