How to
Participate in a Bracket Race:
In drag racing, a bracket race is a race in which one
of the competing cars is handicapped by having to start from a further
distance from the finish line than the other car or by having the drag
racing staging light set at a different interval. By correctly estimating
the acceleration rates of the two cars and by calculating the precise distance
needed to make it a fair race, you will be able to participate in a bracket
race and judge the winner by driving skill alone.

in the instructional link page.
