The Asphalt Magazine is going to bed. Print is dead!
A long over due explanation! As of September 15, 2003 the Asphalt Magazine is going to sleep. We are taking a break from print. We are planning to continue our venture towards an online based magazine. Something we firmly believe to be a smart move for us and a move that would definitely benefit you, the readers.
It has never been in my nature to talk about my plans or vision instead what I like to do is show you what we are becoming. Just like what we did with the print magazine. We plan to launch our site sometime in 2004, hopefully mid-year.
We will be properly refunding subscribers their remaining subscription. Please be patient and do not worry, we have no intentions on taking anyone for a ride.
I would like to take this time to thank the people that helped us. Hope I don’t forget anyone…

Long live Asphalt.... Sad to see the magazine go, but after seeing the rough layout of the web design I am sure it will be a success. It was great meeting you and look forward to seeing you at future events.
