I joined them for the magazine, a few good articles.
As far as getting the free products to test, they talk about air compressors, wheels, tools and all of this great stuff but all I have ever seen comes in an envelope.
Like WD-40, or a new glue, or a car wax sample.
When you go to their forum members aren't too happy with them.
I don't think that I would invest in their so called "life membership"
I don't know if they will be around very long.

Yeah, I have been chosen for life membership also!
I have at least 4 key rings, stickers, and patches.
If they saved their money on mailings and put it back into the "club"
they might have something.

I belong to nsmc and there were a lot of issues with the web site over the last year such as not being able to post pics or comments for some individuals, myself included. That is why I came over here and there are other people here from that site as well. They did put together a new site that works really well and so I am active there again. As far as testing products go, I have received the hose holder for the wd40 cans which is cheap, but haven't lost that little tube since I've had the holder. My best test product was a 3M Sungun which I think was worth around $300. I was impressed with how it worked and a friend is currently using it to finish up body work on a camaro and he is impressed with it as well. I know others from the web site who have tested batteries, intakes, headers and spark plugs. I think there may have been a carb in there as well. Anyway, they do have to big items to test, but it is few and far between.
