High end boat racing is as hard or likely harder on electronics than land use (these 4ft plus boats going 100+ MPH through the water is way more load than this 1/5 at 50mph).

I was always under the impression that boating was less on the electronics 'cause it was a slightly more constant throttle than land use. So they could run higher revs for longer ( with water cooling ) and less amp spikes. Obviously, I was wrong.
Can't wait to see the final product.
