Just got word about this.

This is for all those nay sayers out there who didn't think they'd be able to pull it off. Looks like they did in a BIG way

MINNESOTA AUTOMOTIVE MAGAZINE LEAPS INTO MAINSTREAM MARKET

Rat Rod Magazine, an automotive magazine documenting the rebellious hot rod counter-culture depicted in its title, has reached a joint venture agreement with New Jersey based magazine powerhouse National Publisher Services (NPS) in a partnership that will put the magazine on newsstands across the globe. Borne of modest small-town roots, Rat Rod Magazine has stirred up a stagnant automotive magazine market with a fresh "artistic" approach and outside-the-box design elements.



The partnership with NPS will put the red-hot title in retail spaces across the United States and in strategic International locations, delivering one of the only mainstream "rat rod specific" magazines on the market.



Editor Steve Thaemert Jr. calls the partnership "a win win that will give the booming rat rod scene a creative title of their own." Thaemert works from his office in Shakopee Minnesota, where he has already designed and published the first five Rat Rod Magazine issues dating back to May 2010. "We're proving that the little guy can succeed with a little elbow grease and a passion for what they are doing. This magazine is a testament to the drive and creativity of rat rodders around the world."



Thaemert started the magazine during the winter of 2010 with his father Steve Sr., who is the acting CEO and manages the business side of the magazine from the RRM headquarters in Princeton Minnesota. The duo saw an opportunity to fill a void in the hot rod magazine market, and bring something new to the table. More information about Rat Rod Magazine can be found at www.ratrodmagazine.com.



In it's 20 years of operation, National Publisher Services has worked with such magazines as USA TODAY, World Wrestling Entertainment, August Home, and many others. More information about NPS is available at www.nps1.com.
