Fans now voting on the greatest moments in Pro Stock Motorcycle history as DRBB’s season-long celebration of NHRA history continues DALLAS (May 19, 2026) — Drag Race Bracket Bonanza (DRBB), the free fantasy game built for NHRA drag racing fans, has officially opened voting for the Pro Stock Motorcycle edition of its popular Major Moments brackets, the latest chapter in a season-long fan experience celebrating 75 years of NHRA history. The Major Moments initiative features seeded 64-moment brackets in each professional NHRA category: Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle, highlighting the most iconic wins, rivalries, records, championships and unforgettable moments the sport has ever seen. Fans can now vote in the Pro Stock Motorcycle bracket, which will remain open through May 29, during the stretch between the Route 66 Nationals and Potomac Nationals. Throughout the 2026 season, DRBB is unveiling each class-specific bracket one at a time before culminating in an Overall Bracket featuring the Top 16 moments from every category. Fans will ultimately determine the single greatest moment in NHRA drag racing history. “This has become something fans genuinely look forward to every few weeks,” said Elon Werner, creator of Drag Race Bracket Bonanza. “The Major Moments program has added another layer of excitement to DRBB because it keeps fans engaged all season long. Everyone remembers these moments differently, and watching people debate, defend and relive them has been incredible. That’s exactly what we hoped this would become.” After each bracket closes, DRBB publicly releases the fan-completed results, creating even more discussion among racers, longtime followers and newer fans discovering the sport’s history for the first time. Six-time Pro Stock Motorcycle world champion Matt Smith said the bracket is a reminder of how much the category has evolved over the years. “I’m very proud to represent this class,” said Smith. “I set my life ambition to be a world championship in Pro Stock Motorcycle, and I’ve got six of them, and of course I want to get seven and be the all-time leader in our class, so hopefully we can accomplish that this year. And the big moments I have, some are good, some are bad, but we keep striving, and I’m just glad to help support the class and keep new people coming in.” Two-time world champion Gaige Herrera believes the category’s next generation is already creating moments that could someday become part of future brackets. “I just focus on what I’m doing as far as when the big moments are happening,” said Herrera. “This class is only continuing to get better, so I feel like we’re going to see a lot of people who are already in the class step up, or new people come in, to continue to set records and create major moments.” By combining fan voting, NHRA history and friendly debate, DRBB’s Major Moments brackets have quickly become one of the most interactive additions to the 2026 fantasy season. DRBB hopes the program continues sparking passionate conversations among fans about the defining moments, biggest upsets and most legendary performances in NHRA history, all while adding another fun, free and interactive element to the game throughout the season.
