CORDOVA, Ill. - The 32nd annual Original Super Chevy Show is back and better than ever in its return to Cordova International Raceway (CIR), Cordova, Ill., Saturday, July 7, 2018.

The 32nd annual Original Super Chevy Show is the premier destination for all things Chevrolet and you won’t want to miss a minute of the excitement when the tour comes the Quad Cities metro area.

General admission tickets are $25 for adults and $5 for children 6-12. Children under 5 are admitted free. Gates open at 9 a.m., with the car and truck show taking place from 10 a.m.- 2 p.m. Timed runs on the drag strip start at 10 a.m. with the pro show starting at 6 p.m.

“The Super Chevy Show at CIR is a celebration of an iconic American brand and a fun family-friendly event,” Cordova International Raceway President Dominic Blasco said. “It’s an opportunity to see classic and modern vehicles ranging from pickup trucks to high-performance Chevrolets. The exciting drag racing, swap meet, performance marketplace, great food and drinks, and other entertainment, make it the perfect way for any car enthusiast or family to spend the weekend.”

There will be an exciting Box vs. No Box combo drag race.
