He said'it runs on all four wheels all the time and is a highly technical car 'with a quick " engine. "A good track and street car". • Helpard said World of Wheels started to dabble in Motorsports two years ago as a . learning experience experience of the car industry and for publicity. He said it was too costly to become involved 1 in the series races and as a result latched onto the Endurance feature. In 1988 the magazine took part with a Saab and saved a second placing even after being off the track for three and half hours. In speaking about The World of Wheels magazine Helpard said it is not a Motorsport magazine but an auto consumer magazine of those cars parked in the driveway. He said only one issue of the six during the year features motorsports, the June issue. In speaking of World of Wheels, the publisher, states the magazine was started in 1983 and now has a circulation of 176,000 across Canada as well as a French edition with further circulation. He said after considerable research it was apparent that the p'ublic wanted a reliable auto magazine while.the car industry was equally interested in haying an outlet to show their products. With his background with a a'dvertising agency in Montreal the magazine, World of Wheels, was launched in 1983, with head office in Scarborough, 4^ minutes from our home here in the country, said Helpard.
