Drag racing 101 help

All,

My company has decided to do a profile on my car for an upcoming publication that will be distributed worldwide to our employees. The car will also be included on our intranet web-site. Here's the problem. I need to be able to explain to readers the concept of bracket racing. I would rather link them to a site than to compose an email trying to explain everything from what the ET's mean to "staging", what red lighting is, 60' times, etc....

So, does anyone have a link to a spot that would have drag racing basics or 101's on it? This must be basic enough in explanation for someone who has never even heard of the sport to be able to walk away knowing the basics of it. Hope that makes sense and if not, just imagine how the email would look.

If you can't get enough information from all those pages, then you'll never understand drag racing.
