Great video and perfect explanation of the delay box!

[@ShaunOconnell]

Thanks for the info, going to give bracket racing a try this season

[@slowjamcdub]

Does it matter who crosses the line first or just who doesn’t break out??????

[@michaelhalsall5684]

Are Delay Boxes used (legal) 'in the NHRA Indexed Classes (Stock, Super Stock and Comp Eliminators)?

[@dragracer-ts2xt]

Basically everything but the index categories aren’t allowed to use Delay boxes

From a heads up and grudge racer I still don’t understand why bracket racers run in classes where they are way too fast for.

[@OrdinaryKy]

Oh, it’s because of strategy. Talking from experience, it’s easier to be the faster car and chase than to be chased. So the faster car will pass the slower car then slow down for the class rules. One guy does that at my track and wins pretty often.

[@tannercox4537]

@@OrdinaryKy haha yeah seems as fishy as when someone wants to run the chase is a race rule

[@shitbox82]

@@OrdinaryKy My car is plenty quick enough to run pro class, but I don’t have electronics or a trans brake, so I run in sportsman class, I chase majority of the time and have won my share of rounds, I like to chase…

[@FifthBoy]

What ever happened to first across the finish line wins?! Seems completely over complicated.

So, in Top ET, what would you set it for, since your setting it for the first yellow. .300 sec? .400sec?

[@GallStarTV]

most people run between 0.950 and 1.200 seconds delay in their box. Keep in mind that there is .500 seconds between each light, plus there is some amount of time that it takes your car to react too. All of that, added together with the actual human reaction time normally means the delay box is in that range.

[@krakatoa8701]

@@GallStarTV I was thing pro tree, and not Sportsman for Bracket. So my fault, got the light wrong. Sounds like, I have said that before... lol

[@frankbailey9542]

This is the dumbest style of drag racing anyone's ever invented hey there go by whoever gets there first or whoever has the fastest time the end 😂

So you've got unlimited money ? Without bracket racing there would be fewer cars and the track would eventually not be there anymore. You can't have racing where the guy with the biggest wallet wins everytime. If it's not for you stay home and watch street outlaws.
