For two years I've been building a C stock car. I go to some of the Divisional meets to ask questions and get the perspective of the racers. My sense is that stock eliminator has not changed since my last 1320 jaunt some 25 years ago. But this box thing? Delay box racers," head bangers" is where Stock Eliminator is going if the BOX is accepted. Maybe not next year but probably within 15 years. Although the cost of machine shop time has gradually gone up, the price, of add ons (to be compettitive,) is like health insurance. Its always going up and its always expensive.. I found most of my old receipts and compared. . Electronics are always changing and it always costs more money . What does the BOX do for you? You expect it to make you more consistant than you are supposed to be. There are rarely any doorslammers that are back to back winners at the bracket races running the BOX. Avoid the controversy by mandating all electronics will be installed in the engine compartment in one or two areas. As for the computer cars I don't have the answer but somebody does. On a typical Div. 1 meet with 100 to 150 guys showing up and they all have the BOX , do you really think that your chances are any greater of winning.? I've always related drag racing with Russian Roulette, one round in the chamber and you better not shoot yourself in the head. Look at the faces of the milti -miillion dolar race teams when they don't win and they all are supposed to have the best in everything.
