ThisIsBracket Racing Jr.
ThisIsBracketRacing Junior aims to provide parents and their drivers with the tools, strategies, lessons, equipment, and positive relationships to make the most of your next racing season.
30 Spots Now Available.
A youth development program for Jr dragster racers—designed to build confidence, increase Racing IQ, and help your family get more out of every race.
The program is designed to:
-
Help you and your driver get more out of every race
-
Teach you how to become a more confident, capable crew chief (both as a tuner and a parent)
-
Give your driver the knowledge and skills needed to succeed in today’s competitive bracket racing environment
-
Provide structure and accountability to keep your driver improving
Why now?
And why only 30 spots?
As you may know, we typically only accept new drivers during limited enrollment periods. TIBR Jr. grew quickly (over 150 families joined in our first year), and those enrollment windows have been key to maintaining the quality and experience inside our community.
Our next scheduled enrollment wasn’t until later this year…
But we also know many of you have been waiting—and we truly appreciate your interest.
So we decided to make an exception.
👉 We’re opening 30 spots this week.
And to start, we’re giving early access to families on our waitlist.
I don’t expect these spots to last long once we open the doors to the public later tonight.
If you’re ready to join us and give your driver a more structured, confident start to the season… now’s your opportunity.

What else parents have to say:
"What a difference this class has made."
"I have to give a huge thanks to you guys and the other instructors. Me and Ava went out this weekend for our first race since joining she drove with so much more confidence and I felt way more confident with tuning . We got down to 3 before we bowed out but what a difference this class has made just wanted to say thank you!"
"She won her first race ever"
"Baylee won her first race ever: 13-18 age group at the Southwest Showdown in Tucson.
TIBR Jr was a huge help. We watched them over and over again on the way down. The Staging video is the best in my opinion with all the body off the car so they can see it. Good job!"
"The content is very educational"
"Cole loves your program and really enjoys working with you, Justin, and the team! The content is very educational, especially for a younger driver like Cole, although he has been racing for almost five years, there are a lot of fundamentals that he is learning, practicing, and retaining better than if dad is harping on him about it. The practice tree challenges and awesome prizes are motivational."
"Luke’s reputation as a racer and teacher is unrivaled in the Drag Racing community."
"Luke’s reputation as a racer and teacher is unrivaled in the Drag Racing community.
For the driver, parent, crew chief or team that wants to accel and learn how to succeed at a faster pace, this program will cover all of the bases. There couldn’t be a better person to co-ordinate and organize a racing program as his program for big car racers has seen extreme success. Also, with his track record in his personal career, this becomes a very complete program."
