For those of you who think delay boxes won't impove the consistancy of your reaction times you better think again. They most certainly do. Why do you think they were invented in the first place? We had a racer at our local track that could not buy a round until delay boxes came. He then won multiple track championships. Delay boxes are the great "equalizer". That is why I don't think the drivers that are winning now will want delay boxes. It will just put everybody on the same level as far as hitting the tree is concerned.
I don't know why transbrakes are "needed". Get rid of them and the issue of long, short, adjustable buttons are gone. Some might say, "my car won't leave without one." You mean before transbrakes cars just sat on the starting line? Give me a break.
Now, I'm not one of these guys that doesn't believe in modern technology. It has it's place, especially when durability and safety is concerned. But in my opinion, delay boxes would just ruin class racing.
Sombody said something about not being able to have a green with the new bulbs without a long button or something. I can't belive what I read on here sometimes.
