In a heads-up (even start) race that would be where the winning car had a slower Elapsed Time than the losing car. This occurs when the winning car and driver leave the starting line sooner then the losing car and even though it took longer to reach the finish line (from the time it left the start to the time it reached the finish) it got there first and won as a result of the better start. In a handicap (uneven start) race such as a bracket race, the same thing occurs additionally taking into account the differences between the handicap times (or dial-ins) and the actual Elapsed Times: The time between the green light coming on (the GO signal) and the car actually leaving the starting line is called the "Reaction Time" and most tracks measure this and supply the information to the driver at the conclusion of the race, on an "Elapsed Time slip" or "ET slip" (the info is printed on a slip of paper). If a driver looks at the results, and sees that he won even with a slower Elapsed Time, he will also see that he had a shorter reaction time. If the difference between 2 drivers' Reaction Times is greater than the difference between their Elapsed Times, the winning driver can claim that he had a "Hole-Shot Win". He won because he had a better Reaction Time even though his car was "slower"... By the way: The expression used to explain why the losing (although "faster") car lost is "He got Treed." For instance you can say: "I treed that duck with a hole shot..."Awesome!
a holeshot win is simply when driver #1 has a significantly better reaction time than driver #2 causing driver #1 to take the win before either car reaches the finish line.The hole shop does not insure the win. The term "holeshot" refers to getting out of the "hole". The starting line is the hole, so to put a holeshot on someone means to beat them off the start, which, any racer will tell you, does not insure anything, other than you launched without breaking anything. The most common spot for part failure.

What is a Drag race hole shot and why do they call it that?
A Drag Race hole shot is when the driver only loses because of their reaction time. It is usually because the driver gets a bad reaction time and they lose by that much time. Its the worst way to lose other then to crash. And I do not know why they call it that. You would have to ask the person who came up with the term. Sorry.
