"The car will stall higher if you drop the gear ratio."

ummm can you explain this theory to me?

"The vast majority of bracket racers use a delay box. This is a sure fire way to correct your red lighting problem."

i beg to differ... there are just as many racers that run in a "footbrake" or "No-e" class and delay boxes are illegal. there is more to bracket racing than big block dragsters.... i still have no idea how some people consider bracket racing different from stock/SS yea there are more rules as far as motor and car combo but the 99% of the rules on the track are exactly the same....
