OVERVIEW:
Max Power is a re-titling of Max Speed.
In November 1999, Petersen Publishing sold all its automotive titles to EMAP PLC, a British publisher with titles like
Car and Max Power (UK). The staff at EMAP-Petersen decided to re-title
Max Speed to a U.S. edition of Max Power. It had the same staff as before, and
the focus remained on performance upgrades to vehicles costing $30K or less. Content covered both U.S. and U.K. stories and features.
When EMAP sold 60 automotive titles including this one to Primedia in 2001, Max Power was re-titled as Eurotuner, which continued in print until May, 2012. Volume and series numbering continued from the predecessor to the new title.
