These should be in the store in the near future so keep an eye out.

There were designed by Aidan Hughes, better known as BRUTE. You may recognize his work if you've ever seen a KMFDM CD, or been to the Czech Republic, since he does a lot of work for the government over there. Cool stuff.

Buttons on the steering wheel? We can't afford no buttons on the steering wheel! I do like the fact that it's a Mazda product though. Let's just hope that they don't come down on anyone for using the emblem.

Does this mean that the answer isn't always Miata?

There's actually several elements of different cars in the dash. I think when I was having conversations with Hughes, my instructions were along the lines of "I want people on our message board to have long conversations about what kind of car they think it is."

Or smalls? There is no love for people that aren't average. I'm not a small person, 6' 140# but the mediums swallow me, smalls are never available when I order or renew a subscription.

I dont like the big red person on the right-- he takes up a quarter of my screen. Its like, whose shirt is it? the big red guys? or Grassroots Motorsports?

The lines are too close together and the colors are not right. It looks wrong on my screen. It doesn't look like the old shirt does, and boy, that was my favorite. I will hardly ever wear that shirt.

LOL

Seriously though, the steeringwheel is wonky. Everything else looks good though!

The man himself. There's a link right under the image. I MAY (emphasize "may") have a signed shirt or two to give away at some point in the future. He's a nice guy. Fun to work with and a real pro.

EDIT: Oh, and we should have XXLs available as well. We've been stocking them lately. I can't promise any smalls, but your request has been duly noted and the merch department will have their tree shaken.

I should have waited a little longer to renew my sub. Then again I do have a birthday coming. Time to call the missus.

The big question is. . .. . . .

Since some of have 10 year subscriptions and won't be able to resubscribe to get a freebie, what is the cost going to be?

I love my GRM tee shirts.

Well, you are getting the magazine for $1.25 an issue, which actually barely covers the cost (with the impending postage increase you'll actually probably be getting it below cost). But, yeah, you guys probably deserve some consideration. I'll bug the merch gals.

This artist.. he comes from that country that drinks more beer than anyone else in the world? That would explain a lot.
