ONE DOWN and one more large one to go, and they MIGHT just get back on track
plus our own Jim Woods is now division 2 director

IHRA is getting back on track!

I would imagine that the NHRA Division 5 Lucas Oil Race is toast if Cordova is returning as an IHRA track?

Edit....

I guess they already got rid of it.Thought I saw it listed before.

West Central Division
May 17-18 SRCA Dragstrip Great Bend, Kan.
May 31-June 1 Brainerd International Raceway Brainerd, Minn.
June 13-15 Bandimere Speedway Denver
Aug. 22-23 Heartland Park Topeka Topeka, Kan.
Sept. 5-7 Tri-State Raceway Earlville, Iowa

Cordova is still on the Division 5 schedule.

I think part of the deal was that the guys that own IHRA bought the Cordova track too.

You hit the nail on the head Alex... one more change is needed!

I'm starting to believe these guys mean business. They definitely seem to have a plan and bring some old glory back to IHRA. Good luck to them.

I never saw this one coming. Having worked with Scott Gardner when I first went to work for IHRA, as much of the Cordova team travelled the whole Bracket Finals circuit with us in the formative years of the Bader era, I can't express well enough how exciting and revitalizing this move could be. Scott, his family, and his team have always been just that -- FAMILY, and that in turn was the root of IHRA. Scott has a passion for the sport from top to bottom, and has a track record of success. Change always takes time, but as long as IHRA's parent company allows him the flexibility to do what needs to be done, I can see a bright future ahead. Welcome home, Scott.
