What exactly is bracket racing?
Bracket Racing is a form of drag racing that allows for a handicap between predicted elapsed time of the two cars over a standard distance, usually 1/4 mile. It’s all about consistency. Therefore, there’s no need to purchase a race car for this event. All you need is a street legal vehicle and a driver’s license.
Instructor’s Race:
Get to know your instructors by talking them into joining you at the races. Besides ‘bragging rights’, the winner and runner-up take home a trophy!
Alumni Race:
Parents and former students can compete in the alumni race. Same rules apply, must have a street legal vehicle. A trophy will be awarded to the winner & runner-up!
For the main event, racers are asked to declare the high school they represent. With each round win, scores one point for his/her school. The school that tallies up the most round wins are recognized on the racetrack and awarded a trophy to take back to their respective high school!
Mod-Stock:
This class will permit modified drag race vehicles to compete on the drag strip. ZERO high school points will be accumulated if racing in this class! All IHRA safety equipment rules will be enforced. Open Headers, Slicks, Roll Cages are permitted in the Mod-Stock class only.
Team Spirit:
We will recognize the school that demonstrates the most team spirit and the best appearing school!
You don’t have to race. Come hang out with your buddies and cheer on your school!
Don’t forget about the Car Cram & Much More!
