80cc ECHO “David” Saw Puts The Goliaths On Notice, on TSN If you attended the filming of the TSN show “Lumberjacks” at the loggersports competitions in Campbell River or Port McNeil in August, you may already know what his headline means. EPEC is the premier sponsor of the “Lumberjacks” show that airs on TSN Saturday mornings thru the fall & winter.
Someone said to me that we did not have chainsaws big enough to make noise in the premier “HotSaw” competition. Don Walker of Walker Power Equipment, in Victoria and myself thought, at the same time, “how is it that there are Honda civics that can beat tricked out mustrangs?” The answer? NOS! Nitrous Oxide is the great

equalizer for smaller engines versus the big boys. So Don, a master chainsaw tuner, created, what may be, the first NOS injected chainsaw. This saw created a lot of buzz amongst fans & competitors. You can see & hear this by going to my YouTube channel at “echotoolguy”. Check your local listings for TSN to air “Lumberjacks”.
