Beware of Skunk2 Racing

[CB7Nub]

Skunk2 is offering a bounty $300 cash or $500 Skunk2 credits to find the real identity of two individuals.

K20A.org members signalpuke and BlazedD provided some information to Honda-Tech and K20A users information about the way Skunk2 operate and "proved they are a trading company that built their business around the mantra of "Copy it in LA, produce it in TW, drop ship the boxes, and don't QC anything". Skunk2 was very pissed, they went as far as creating other usernames on forums to try to find out the identities of the individuals. Now, they are offering a bounty. Check out the link. Very surprising from such a company.

I never bought anything from them, and probably after this I won't.
Anyways what parts do they make for us anyways hahaha?

I wonder how this will affect the business of Skunk2.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Skunk2 sucks.

I never understood why they wanted to be called "skunk" to begin with. The name just implies that their products stink.

Is it really that big of a surprise?

Russell Performance, a side brand of Edlebrock USA. States Made in the USA right on their website, however when I ordered Russell A/N fittings from Summit they were very cheaply made in China. Broke both of them.

I believe they used to be "skunkworks", and were essentially an "ebay" company, much like OBX and Megan Racing (who have since created names for themselves... but are also nothing but cheaply made knockoff brands.)

Funny, I just searched them on Wikipedia to see if I'm correct, and what do I find?
