I think this is a little bit of an extreme contrast. Water in the crankcase is a far cry from this subject. Green bearings have and are being used by many. If you dont like or want them, then dont use them. However I started this thread in an attempt to see if there was someone out there that was or had used them in an autox or road race environment and would share thier experince. Just because someone doesnt hate them doesnt mean they dont work. this isnt blasphemy if someone actually likes them; it is personal opinon and I personally perfer opinion based on experience. This isnt a slam on tapered bearings or another version of "what is best". This is purely a question of green bearing experience as it relates to cornering.
