Are there even any new and young guys moving up through the ranks? If not, saw racing has more serious problems than who built what...
The guys on top right now need to encourage growth of the sport...
Food for thought...

It all depends on what you regard as winning, what type of race and where it is. I can think of 10+, who through the years won real races. In the east, over the past ten years, that number is less than five. There are only a couple right now with a couple more coming up.

Guess who's back
or is it the other way around?

Of course it all depends on what someone thinks winning is. I think of contests like Webster, Fryeburg, Seneterre and others like that. GTG's and turdlicker (poser) shows don't count. A lot of small contests have been won with a stock saw and a good chain.

Chain means a lot! No question!!! I wouldn't lump GTG'S and the term "turdlicker" into the same sentence though, or you'll be known as the biggest douchebag on AS... So be careful how you word things...
Just sayin...

I am not, what I am describing is the difference between bracket racing your mom's olds and running a top fuel car. Maybe turdlicker was a bit strong, but a gutted muffler and massaging the ports does not win a big contest. For example, one time I cut 3.46 seconds on 10X10 pine with my 3120 cold start- I was third! OK, I am a douchebag, thanks Jeff!

I wonder if way back before the Internet, say 30 years ago, if the up and coming saw builders of that era got letters in the mail calling them turdlickers?

Put your firewood saw up against something like this. BTW, this was five years ago, there are much faster saws now.
