cordova world series of drag racing 2026 (1 Viewer)

[mick]

the race starts tomorrow night. anyone have a clue who is there this year?
i've been checking for last couple weeks. can't find anything naming any drivers.
litton, worsham, and palmer in TF. d-wilk, nataas and haas in FC.
how much do you think cordova pays to these six? 15k maybe?
i see 'the panty dropper' is shown as nostalgia top fuel. not exactly what i would call nostalgia top fuel.
maybe the name alone will sell a few tickets

I believe you are correct on the big show cars. I don’t think the Panty Dropper runs nitro but it is a pretty cool car. He’s from my area and I’ve seen him at a couple of races. Great looking car and puts on a good show. Two more guys from my area will be there match racing, Dave Hill in Mad Max and Dave Hirata in Tom Motry’s Drastic Plastic. The Chicago Wiseguys are supposed to be there too. They’re a Pro Mod run whatcha brung group. Again some cool cars in that group. Also seeing a group of gassers are supposed to be there and the Larsen Motorsports Jet dragster team.

saw last week that cordova went back to being D5 nhra for 2027. a summit series race and
a LODRS regional event next year. guessing that is the regional that usually takes place at tri-state.
