These racers had to hold the car against the brakes, spool the turbos, and then try easing off the brakes to bump into the stage beam, all while holding back a couple thousand horsepower. You just push a button and it moves the car forward half an inch, instead of letting off the brake and moving forward an unknown amount and hoping you don’t roll through the beams.”ĭavis originally developed the Bump Box for turbocharged racers who were having difficulty with the staging process. Although an unadvertised product at the time, the Bump Box first made waves at the PRI Show in 2011, where Davis set the record straight from curious show-goers wondering if the device made cars capable of staging and launching on their own by explaining that, “…it’s not automatic nor is it magic. You just push a button and it moves the car forward half an inch, instead of letting off the brake and moving forward an unknown amount and hoping you don’t roll the beams. For many, this relatively simple device that uses just the push of a button to roll a car forward a specific distance, is a tool many are unsure how they ever did without.
DAVIS BUMP BOX PRO
The Bump Box, so named for its use as a device to assist in the staging process known as “bumping in”, is the newest product from Davis Technologies, and not only has it cured the ills of turbocharged Pro Modified racers who were in dire need of a solution, but its found its way into untold numbers of race cars, from bracket racing on up.
DAVIS BUMP BOX DRIVERS
Two years ago, auto racing electronics wizard Shannon Davis set out to develop a first-of-its-kind product designed to alleviate a common problem for drivers of turbocharged race cars, and in the process, he created and mass produced what has become a vital tool for drag racers at every level and with every form of engine and power adder combination. But the benefits were soon realized by everyone from the blown and nitrous competition to bracket racers and everywhere between. The Bump Box was originally developed as a solution for turbocharged Pro Modified racers, who were resorting to other measures to keep from rolling through the lights as they built boost and tripped the stage bulb.
