    That sucks. Crane was a HUGE presence throughout the race and enthusiast scene...

    Sad to see that for all the people out of work. We never, ever used Crane cams, though.

    Not sad to see GReddy go under, have you seen their catch cans? Shitty shitty product... literally an empty can with input and output nozzles. I never bought one but I still was pissed to see such crap. Dummies would buy them and not see any oil... and think "gee my engine must be doing pretty good".

    Sad to see Crane go tho...
