Problem victa as we know it will be coming to a pretty abrupt end soon in my opinion (it already has in another sense)
Before we know it they wont make a 2 stroke anymore, they will use only briggs engines since briggs bought victa out.
Then they will keep flooding the market with $198 pooheaps that die after 3 years.
Then (again already happening) they will start using more and more generic names for the cheap victa designs.
Thats in my opinion what will end up happening anyway, I have enough 2 stroke engines to see my lifetime out and my kids as well

made when quality was a priority.
