    Kit cars. Just have a car with basic sensors for safety and all that jazz and no computers or telemetry whatsoever. There is no law requiring them.

    Black boxes on cars only record the last 5 seconds to account for what happened in a crash. I can live with that.

    I can use a DAP or hand radio for entertainment. No need for the computerized system. I never used those anyway. For GPS I would either do paper maps or use a passive GPS that does not transmit.
