Thread: Thanks Flyin' Miata!

  1. #1

    Default Thanks Flyin' Miata!

    I got a complimentary copy of Grassroots Motorsports in the mail last week. On the address label it states, "Compliments of Flyin' Miata".

    Pretty darn cool and more amazing since I haven't ordered anything from them in a while.

    The only thing that stinks is it's the issue with "Bean and the BUR" on the cover which I already bought at the news stand several weeks ago.
    ...and across the line.

    Yep... from FM's website:

    We're big fans of Grassroots Motorsports magazine. The guys at GRM aren't afraid to give honest feedback on something they test (they were not kind to our previous generation 2-wheel big brake kit, for example) and they're all true car nuts. Plus, they do a lot of work with Miatas. Our kind of guys.
    So when they asked if they could send a free issue to our customers, we said yes. It's a good issue, with a whole bunch of Miata content as well as an article by Keith. We're hoping you enjoy the magazine and you'll probably learn a few things. A copy is being sent to anyone who's purchased something from us in the past two years. You don't need to request it.
    Don't worry, we didn't sell your name to a bunch of marketers. This is a one-time mailing, and you're not going to get hassled for a subscription. If you like the magazine, great. Subscribe if you want. If you don't like it, then give it to a friend and you'll never be bothered again.
    The issue should arrive mid-June. Sorry, US customers only.

    He's gonna be there so he can get his hood strut. Definitely bring the BUR if you can, Bean.

    I got my copy of GRM just a few days ago.

    GRM gives 'em out to anyone. Awesome magazine, it's my favorite.

    BTW, sign up for 2 years at a time and you get a free T-shirt. They've got a new design with a Miata on the back.

    I picked up 2 free issues that way, but the 3rd time I tried it I got an "invitation to subscribe". Thank goodness I got my 3rd freebie Saturday from the FM list.

    I got mine, I thought FM might have had something to do with it, as I saw their ad for the Open House coming up.
