Recent Improvements Since Version 14
DragPro continues to improve with better bracket racing, wireless hardware support, cloud results, printing, audio, and overall reliability.
Version 16.2 And Newer Aug 11, 2026
Improved Hardware Reliability
Improved communication handling for DP3000, DP500, and DP900-style hardware. These changes help prevent screen update problems after a race and improve reliability when race data is received from the timing system.
Improved Remote Start
Improved remote start support for DP500 and DP900 wireless systems. The remote start switch now follows the same safety checks as the on-screen Start button, helping prevent accidental starts while the system is waiting, disabled, or syncing.
Improved Speech Audio
Countdown announcements now speak more clearly, for example:
10 seconds left
An audio keep-alive improvement was also added to help prevent the beginning of spoken announcements from being cut off on some Bluetooth or delayed audio devices.
Improved Menus
Menu items that can be turned on or off now show checkboxes, making settings easier to see at a glance.
License Screen Update
The old “Registration” wording has been changed to “License” for Clock and Tournament unlock codes.
Improved Bracket Printing
Bracket View printing has been improved, including better copy handling, cleaner page output, portrait orientation, and improved font-size memory.
Improved Bracket Screen
The Bracket screen has been cleaned up and settings can now be saved per bracket.
Version 15 Updates
Cloud Bracket Results
Bracket information can now be uploaded to the cloud, including updates when bracket changes are made. This makes it easier for racers and spectators to view race information from a browser.

Bracket pairing was improved to help prevent the same racer from racing themselves when a racer has multiple cars entered.

Fixed lane/result issues affecting DP500 and DP900 systems.

Menu check settings are now remembered more reliably.
