CORDOVA COLLEGE – A new concept to help would be racers get into the sport.

If you or someone you know would love to give drag racing a shot, CORDOVA COLLEGE is the perfect way to ease into the sport. Dan Crownhart said, “I have met people who would like to learn how to bracket race, but the process of the staging lanes, water box, and everything between the starting line to picking up their timing slip has them intimidated. We want to eliminate that and welcome new racers to the sport.” See how you can spread the work of these classes on the flyer on our Cordovadragway.com media viewer page.
