you know what, the thing that bothers me the most (besides the fact that its not even a scion) is the fact that there are MANY tuned/modded tcs out there (maybe not many tastefully done, but a few) that are customer/street or even shop cars that are Mag worthy, who cares about a fully sponsored toyota drag car w/ tube frame chassis and a motor that isn't even the tc's.

Damn corporate money grubbers. They obviously paid a crapload of money to get that car into the mag. That article is the least interesting one in the whole issue.
