Etymology: "Outraced" is the past tense and past participle of "outrace," meaning to run or travel faster than someone or something and leave it behind. The verb is formed from the prefix "out-," meaning "beyond" or "surpassing," added to "race," which in English came from Old Norse "rás," a running or a course, and entered the language in the Middle English period. The sense you gave, of drawing or tracing something, doesn't match the verb's usual meaning, so it may refer to a different word.
