Timken acquired its competitor, The Torrington Company, in 2003 for $840 million, doubling the size of the company and creating the world's third-largest bearing manufacturer at that time.
 
Yes, I used to work for them. Torrington and then Timken. Where it all started is gone. Torrington is now just a brand name stamped on a product.

BTW, good looking engine
 
Racers have been doing that for years to save their lives. Water under the tires at full tilt could be a disaster. Plus the clean up crew will not be happy. Higher water pressures, blown head gaskets, block flex, poorly made plugs etc. can make them pop out.
