Is there any way of getting rid of that annoying subscription pop up that makes it so you can't read classic motorsports articles on a phone? Half of the time I read the board I look at it on my phone, and it's really irritating that it does that.

I never figured it out, so I don't go to the CMS site on my phone.

Everytime ai tried to close it, it either moves or I open another link. I gave up on the site.

I complained about it in the past... but for some reason the powers that be seem to think annoying people will generate more subscriptions. I rarely fault the GRM/CMS crew, but that one baffles me.

Well, I guess as long as they know it does that and want it that way, I'm not the one paying for the site so I can't get that annoyed about it lol. Hopefully whoever wants that popup there will read this and go look at the site on their phone and make sure thats how they want it to work though.

If you access it from the grm forums page it isn't there. If you go to the cms page it is.

Not sure about the cellphone/mobile side of things, but for the regular sites, I prefer using GRM to access CMS. The pictures are bigger.

Same here. 10 year for both.

When I go on the CMS site on my laptop it's no issue since Firefox blocks most pop-ups.

For me its just the articles on the CMS site, even if I am signed in on both forums. Its no problem on the computer, but the rest of the site (except for the forum) is unusable from my phone.

I apologize, but you'll be happy to know a solution is coming. We have a fully functional CMS mobile site in beta at the moment, and as soon as the bugs are worked out we'll push it to our primary server.

Left foot braking, turn right and stick your left foot on the tire, or learn how to avoid a collision.

We have a new mobile-friendly site that should be up and running soon. That'll eliminate your problem with the slide-in subscription promo.

Since this is GRM, and you are DD-ing it, can we expect a time around the little track you guys test on? Maybe a local autox?
