Yes a 4.50-5.50 bracket car will cost you much more than that. I will give you that point in the argument.
Let me ask you a question. When you converted over to a BBC how much did that motor cost you? In fact I think you have one for sale don't you. I will bet you 75% of the no electronics cars around here cost less than your motor!!!

And that right there is half the reason it worries me to go bracket racing sometimes. There is some serious junk at most local tracks, I'm not saying all are or even 20%, but there are some cars that I flat out wouldn't want in the other lane. I have never, not even once felt that way in Stock or SS.
For me building a bracket car is easy, follow less than a page worth of safety rules and that's it. What's the fun in that??? Class racers get as much enjoyment out of their cars themselves as they do driving them. I'm not saying that bracket racing is easy, just that mechanically, they are easy. No challenge at all. Hell i could have a nice C5 corvette to drive every day, that would be a great bracket car.
