Default Crower cams. WHY?

Why all of a sudden does everyone want Crower cams now. I haven't even heard of anyone using them until lately. Plus people keep complaining about them breaking. Why the f*#@ would you buy a cam that is known to break possibly? Why don't people just go with the known brands like Toda or Jun or maybe even Skunk2's. Or you could get some ITR cams for that matter. Somone please explain.

Well wouldn't you rather have a more expensive cam that you know is going to work good and know that it's not going to freakin' break? I wouldn't even consider Crower. The best dyno's for the GSR that I have seen are using Toda's. That's all I need to say about that.

skunk2's have been known to break, and ive seen JUN's break.....i think most of it has to do with installation.
