Cricketing medic accepting a test of acceleration (4,4)
I believe the answer is:
drag race
'acceleration' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'cricketing medic accepting a test' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'medic' could be 'dr' (abbreviation for doctor) and 'dr' is found within the answer.
'a' is within the answer.
The remaining letters 'grace' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for drag race that I've seen before include "motor sport contest" , "Fast track career" , "Short competition to test cars' acceleration" , "Acceleration contest between cars" , "motor event" .)
