    Re: Its definately official Two Strokes are obsolete!

    And what about some healthy snacking alternatives, such as carrots, apples, or perhaps mandarins?

    Let me guess a 4 stroke owner

    Imagine the number of 4 st owners 2 stroke manufacturers could steal if they included a fake tan with every engine sold LOL!

    if you get the e-tec DVD, and watch that, you'd think that there was no other brand of motor on the bloody market........

    Hey Donny, if you got the ETEC video, and believed it, I've got some land in Alaska that might be just right for you! The price is spot on!!!

    I'm a bit funny about the way the ETEC got tuned to best height on the transom, best prop for the job, then the two other donks were set up exactly the same way. I suspect if the Yammie Guys and the Merc Guys were asked to optimise their rigs in similar fashion, the race would've been a little closer.

    It's just marketing, and I doubt whether there's any manufacturer out there who would've done it differently, had they thought of it first.

    LOL, I said it was the right price for Donny. I reckon you'd think it was too cheap, and smell a rat. Don't tell Donny I said that!

    No way,Timi....

    You really reckon that BRP would use such skulduggery just to sell a few engines......shame on you!!!...I suppose next you will be telling me that McDonalds don't make healthy burgers....

    BTW if your piece of land in Alaska has a bridge on it I'd certainly be interested.

    Yeah, 2 stokes are dead in the water and cant compete with them grunty 4 stokes......
