Yeah, saw that but the really interesting this so far, at least here in Houston, HF doesnt care what you do to the engine. You can blow a chunk out the front of the block and they give you a new one, there have been zero questions asked. The people that manage the store and the pretty little ladies typically don't know anything about the engines, they just know they are an engine. Great people, insane policy. I can understand why they do it being how cheap they get the engines per container load, most people wont even bother removing a governor for racing or have a need for more power. The majority by far of the karting community is kids between 8-15 years old, most of them are willing to unscrew that limitor if they know its there but they arnt going to do major damage.
I am a bit of a douche but sometimes it pays off for others. I cant see why anyone would want to try that hard when the warranties are that cheap but to each his own.
