Matt Dadas joins this week's episode! Not only is Matt one of the most successful (and versatile) big dollar bracket racers in the country, he's also a regular guest instructor on ThisIsBracketRacing ELITE. Today, we leaned on Matt to answer the question: Are door cars at a disadvantage in today's world of big buck bracket racing? If you enjoy this type of content, it just scratches the surface in...

In today's Daily Driver, we focus on the one round of competition we all agree we can't screw up: Bye runs! Even though we can't lose, there are ways to maximize the value of our solo runs and some things to consider before, during, and after each bye we receive! This episode kicks off three full weeks in which we'll drop a new episode EVERY WEEKDAY. Enjoy!

In this Daily Driver, we continue on with our limited series to commemorate the launch of Let Go Like A Pro.

As we continue on with this limited series within the Daily Driver on Let Go Like A Pro, we look at physical mechanics. In my opinion, the physical mechanics of releasing the transbrake button is extremely overrated. My argument? Take a listen to find out.  Ready to Let Go Like a Pro?

I’m less than a week removed from Pomona and I wanted to take this episode to recap and talk about my experience in this years Championship chase. 

Continuing on in this episode, I'm recapping the NHRA Championship chase that we had in Competition Eliminator, Top Sportsman, and Super Stock when we landed in Pomona. 

The NHRA Championships are in the books and I wanted to start by recapping what happened at the end of the Championship chase. This week, I'm starting with Super Gas and not because I was involved but because I think it's the most compelling story line.

I don't think I have ever felt more pressure than I have over the past few weeks out here on west coast. This week in the Daily Driver I wanted to share how I have been dealing with this pressure. 

Over the past few days we have discussed the 3 categories that have clinched and the 2 categories that are in a 2 driver race in the 2024 NHRA Championship race. Today, we discuss the categories that are 4 wide! 

Yesterday we talked about the 3 drivers that have clinched the 2024 NHRA World Championships, today we focus on the two categories that are down to 2 contenders. 

As NHRA gears up to make the final stop in Pomona, we have three categories that have clinched Championships!

There are infinite ways to learn as long as we're open to it. By simply being HERE, you're signaling the sense of open-mindedness that is crucial to leaning, to improving.  Learn to drive the stripe like a pro with our course, "Finish Line Driving Made Easy" at thisisbracketracing.com/easy

It’s natural to want to know where you stand in a points chase. Obviously, your main focus is on the things that you can control.  But that doesn’t mean that we’re not aware of the things that are beyond our control.
