Don't be surprised when Harbor Freight goes racing like Red Bull or Haas.
Green font implied, but nothing would surprise me ever again. God knows, they've made nothing but money the last twenty five years or so.

I don't see why they (Harbor Freight) will not eventually end up in F1.

Burn the fire.

Like their tools (built for one job), will this engine be built for one race?
Edit: Can you turbo it?

I'll wait till they start selling water cooled diesel engines before making those claims. I bet they will sooner than later.

Our kart club used to have a class for Honda and Chinese clones before we adopted the Briggs LO206 as our 4 stroke engine. There is a crazy amount of aftermarket hop up parts available for the Chonda engines. We ran one in an endurance race and it was about double the HP of a stock Briggs LO206.

If a company that sells stupid sugar
and caffeine drinks to yahoos with more money than brains can go racing then certainly, a company that sells tools can too |
