^So you want to limit costs in a premier class? Good luck with that....
USAC is the top tier of non-wing racing, it would make no sense at all to limit lightweight parts in the name of cost savings for top tier (and for the most part well-funded) teams... If they want to spend the money on lightweight parts so be it.... Clauson won the first night with a carbon body, Ballou the second (with a fiberglass/sheetmetal body), and Tmez the third (again with a glass/tin body).
Switching to all steel components and glass bodies wont make a significant enough change to "change the show for the better"....
Carbon fiber is lighter, stronger (than its cheaper counterpart fiberglass), and lets face it- it just looks cool.
