Drag & Bracket Racing
Coming SoonA real drag tree in RC scale, on the way

Christmas

Drag Features
What the drag engine will do
Stage the cars, run the tree, and score each pass, with brackets advancing as winners are entered. This is what we're building, not what ships today.
Pro Tree
All three amber lights fire simultaneously, 0.400 seconds to green. Standard NHRA Pro timing.
Sportsman Tree
Sequential amber lights with 0.500 seconds between each. Common for club racing and new drivers.
Christmas Tree
Full sequential countdown with pre-stage, stage, and amber sequence. Classic drag racing experience.
Reaction Time
Reaction time measured from the green light to when the car leaves the line. Red light foul detection included.
Elapsed Time (ET)
Full elapsed time from launch to finish line. Track records, personal bests, and historical ET data.
Multi-Lane Support
Configure 2, 3, or 4 lanes for side-by-side racing. Each lane timed independently with head-to-head results.
Elimination Brackets
Automatic bracket generation. Winners advance, losers eliminated. Single or double elimination formats.
Dial-In / Handicap
Bracket racing with dial-in times. Slower car gets head start. Break-out detection for going too fast.
