Data loggers are not unique to Stock, fellas. They've been around for decades in the higher classes. They've filtered down into Stock now, where some actually believe they are a requirement to be competitive , thus further raising the bar away from an entry level class.
I'd have to say the special, trick ring packs that fit the standard 5/64th , 1/16 grooves etc. are a significant Stocker technology.

The newest thing to hit is going to be an electric car. Time for NHRA to start structuring the different classes. EA/SA, EB/SA, EC/SA, ED/SA and so on.

From my observations watching stockers leaving the starting line, it has a lot to do with rear suspensions. I'll go with Cal Tracs and similar devices.
