Drag Race Bracket Bonanza (DRBB) will return for the 2025 NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series season, officially announcing its continued partnership on the eve of the AMALIE Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals, March 6-9 at Gainesville Raceway.
Since its launch at the 2023 U.S. Nationals, the free bracket game for drag racing fans has distributed prizes to participants in 42 states and five countries. DRBB awards plaques to the Overall winner, Top Fuel winner, Funny Car winner, Pro Stock winner, and Pro Stock Motorcycle winner at each national event. Each plaque has been personally signed by the respective event winners, a personal touch that organizer Werner plans to maintain in 2025.
In 2024, prizes included trophies designed by Katie Buttera of @applegirlart for winners of The Majors series, a custom Impact Racing helmet signed by drivers in the Countdown, and certificates for players who excelled at predicting U.S. Nationals brackets.
“We were able to send out some pretty incredible prizes in 2024,” Werner said. “We plan to keep the ball rolling in 2025 by continuing to offer up other special prizes. The drag racing community is full of creative people and passionate fans. One of the best parts about DRBB is connecting those two groups. And because DRBB is a free game, anyone of any age can play, which means our young fans also have the opportunity to win some pretty cool prizes.”
As the Gatornationals approach, DRBB will release more announcements and updates. Fans can follow DRBB on social media for statistics, prize updates, and information on Twitter/X at @dragracebb or on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube at @DragRaceBracketBonanza.
Players will have the opportunity to fill out their brackets for the first time in 2025 during the Gatornationals, once qualifying concludes on Saturday, March 8. Participants can submit their brackets until the first round of eliminations begins on Sunday, March 9, at 10:30 a.m. EST. Fans can catch the NHRA broadcast on FS1.
