Fox T-Bird/Cougar Forums  

I'm stunned. I always laugh that they call themselves MM&FF when in fact it's rare they have anything other than Mustangs in there featured.

That's because Mustangs are Fast Fords for the most part.
Way to kill two birds with one stone.

Yeah, have you ever submitted your car? It's too friggin sweet.

I triied getting the awsome cars on here, some exposure in MM&FF, with a FOX VS MN12 shootout, but as far as I know nobody jumped at it.  If they seen some of these cars, like the hawk, Erics, cougars2go, Blown306s, and the others, I bet they would be intrested in a feature car.

Gentlemen,

We have decided to postpone the shootout until next year, as seven of the
nine people selected have backed out due to various reasons, most of which
had nothing to due with the relatively short notice of the event. It mostly
came down to bad timing and while we did come up with four well-rounded
contestants after including some of our alternates, we feel the TC, SC,
Thunderbird and Cougar group would be best served by scheduling the shootout
sometime in March or April of 2006, when we could organize the event a
little better and hopefully produce a bumper crop of street beasts for the
article.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, but we want you
guys to be well-represented and feel this is the best option. Those who were
chosen for this event will be automatically included next year, while we
hope to also receive a few more entries from those who didn't hear about the
event, or couldn't make it because their cars were down. That being said, I
will be saving the emails from those who were selected and will contact them
when the event has been rescheduled. We will also be hitting the website
forums and will announce the time of entry submission in the Horse's Mouth
news column, which is where we normally make note of shootouts.

Thank You,

Steve

have you ever submited yours?

I sent them stuff (and 5.0 Mustang & Super Fords) a couple years ago after the engine swap was done.....never heard a peep and frankly I'm not surprised.

 By and large it's a known fact that MM&FF won't go out of their way to do a feature on a car unless it's something they think is really special that the readership will be into.....they primarily only cover cars that are local to them or cars that happen to be at an event they are covering. I guy I know of who lives in my area got his car into 5.0 and the only reason it got featured was twofold:

1)It was an exceptionally well done Mustang
2)He happened to be in a car show at a FFW event they we're covering (Norwalk I believe) They did the photo shoot at the event.

 With that said: Sure I'd like to see my hard work and our T-Birds given some acknowledgement in a major mag but I won't lose any sleep over it or go outta my way to get it done (driving across country for example).....I'm perfectly content with the kudos I get from my fellow enthusiasts here on the forum, at the local cruise nights and Ford car shows because to me, they're the only people who have a valued opinion in my book and they're the ones I appreciate the most.

BTW, thanks to all who feel my Bird is worthy of mag material...it's much appreciated.
