Vitali,
After 'picking' the cars out that will be features, a professional style calender is a LOT of work. I do the design for nastyz28 for free because they throw me a few favors every year, but I also ask them for well over a months notice to do it, because it takes that long.
Then theres a guy I work with via interweb in CT. that prepares everything for press and brings it to his shop.
The clubs cost is about $2000 upfront for printing. If they get stuck with any calenders, they eat the cost, so it sucks when you have people who say 'yeah, ill want a calender' but never pull throuhg. That absolutely would happen with njfboa. people will say yeah yeah yeah, make a calender, then when it costs $25 each or more becuase of such a low, nobody would want to spend the money.

Plus I don't think Tim or Justin would have the money up front, and i dont see people pre-ordering a calender before they can see the finished product.
