I looked in the mail today. I notice I got my Super Street April issue along side my Road & Track April issue as well. As soon as I got done looking through the Road & Track issue, I looked at the Super Street. Seeing that my Name and Subcription number and all that in the White rectangle were clearly up side down and above it saying," APRIL 2004." I glaced at it very confused and opened it. It was like a Manga book, you turn the pages and read to the left. As I was reading Holeshot by John "Nads" Naderi and it says this:

We normally don't know if we'er coming or going, but this is just ridiculous. By now you can no doubt tell that something is amiss with the format of this issue (yes, more than usual).

Reading Futher down.

To Be quite honest with you, I'm not entirely sure what we were thinking when we came up with this grand plan.

Finding that out, made me mad. Now that I have to read that articles and turning the pages the opposite direction. Im hoping that at the news stand at my local Grocery store, they put every thing in the right direction. They left me confused on why they did this as a April Fools joke. But they made alot of subcribers angery and I bet half of them destoryed there issue they got in the mail.
 
Nope, it's backwards, even at the newsstands. Good prank, ****ty magazine, yet again this month.

Its a shame they would do this. I mean, their articles on some cars are good, and the coverage on Japanese cars and Drift Events are good. THe magazine is hilerous. But I didn't laugh. I hope they get tons of Hate mail for this.

Yep. I've been trying to convince my parents to get this car. They say it is too small. It might be but the car has style. I loved it from the first moment I saw it.
 
So what if they put it in the Japanese format for one issue? I think it's kinda cool. After all, Option, HyperRev, Battle Magazine, Drift Tengoku, and more all have that format. Hell, I'd hope that maybe articles on par with the Japanese magazines would follow the format change.
 
Actually, I think that's kinda clever. Certainly better than just sticking in a couple of lame "joke" articles anyway.

At least they didn't write it in Arabic format too, with the WORDS going from right to left...
