FWIW guys most of the tools and boxes you see at big leage races like that, the teams get for FREE or very cheap! That's why most of them have what they have. When I worked in NASCAR, one of the team I was on, we where on the MAC "deal" which meant that we got 40% off ANY MAC tools and boxes even the sale prices. I'm sure Snap-on has a similar deal too. This makes there tool much more affordable.

I used to work with a company that would let us techs go down to the local industrial suppy place (pipe, bolts, etc.) and buy the brown textured Kennedy boxes. I think the boxes were bought on the 1% business tax rate, and you signed a company chit to take it out of your pay a little a paycheck. The Kennedy was a good pro box; and if i remember, came with a guarentee. Also had a brick-and-morter place to go and complain or buy add-ons.
