David-look around on the net, there are several "off brand" carbon bikes that come out of the same factory as many of the brand names.

Carbon is great, but I don't like its failure mode (no choice but to ride carbon forks tho). Know a number of crit guys that break a frame or two a year. Check out Carl Strong-he does nice affordable custom steel, or buy used.
