CORR Returns to Action at Firebird with Friday Qualifying; Krajicek, Holtger Post Fastest Laps

Pro SXS racer Kolton Krajicek paced the Championship Off-Road Racing (CORR) field in Friday qualifying for this weekend’s doubleheader at Firebird Motorsports Park, the third and fourth rounds of the 2025-26 season. Krajicek’s 53.720 nipped top October qualifier Beau Judge by just .274 seconds for the top spot, as less than a second separated the top five in both Pro SXS and Pro NA.

Two months ago, just five drivers were able to crack the one-minute mark in their qualifying laps; this weekend, the pace picked up considerably. Pro Lite, Pro Am Turbo, SR1, and Youth SXS all ratcheted up their speeds to crack the 60-second barrier, with Midwest champion Johnny Holtger’s season debut in Pro Lite seeing him post the second-fastest pole lap of the entire weekend.

Fastest racers on Friday who also posted the top times in October included Carson Greco (Pro Am), Trent Ouellette (Pro NA), Andre Tomei (Pro Am Turbo), Ryder Greco (Youth Restricted), and Addie Atteberry (800 Open). The smallest margin between first and second went down to Youth SXS title rivals Kash Hart and Mikey Childress, who were split by just .105 seconds, closely followed by SR1, where Larry Hayes bested Paul O’Brien by just .111.

The Chase for the Championship Begins: CORR Readies for Firebird Doubleheader on December 12-14

After a strong season debut at Firebird Motorsports Park in October, Championship Off-Road Racing (CORR) returns to action at its flagship Arizona venue on December 12-14. With three full days of on-track excitement, early registration discounts, and new low ticket prices, there’s no better way to ring in the holiday season for racers and race fans alike.

Race Registration | Season Membership | General Admission

Tickets for Rounds 3 and 4 are on sale now at new low prices. Single-day admission is $20, while a weekend pass covering all three days is $35 (kids 5 and under free). In addition, spectator camping is available for $20 on Saturday and $35 for the weekend.

Racer registration is also open now. Early registrations can enter the code FALL2025 at checkout to receive $50 off class entry, one pit/camping pass, and one weekend general admission pass—a total of $150 in savings!

Prior to race week, fans will have plenty of opportunities to get familiar with CORR:

  • Highlights from last month’s season opener at Firebird will air on RACER Network on Monday nights in December. Round 1 highlights will air on Monday, December 1 at 7PM PT, and Round 2 highlights will air on Monday, December 8 at 7PM PT.
  • CORR will have an on-site presence at Rugged Radios Dirt Expo, coming to Westworld of Scottsdale on December 5-7. Cars from Mia Chapman, John Holtger, Carson Greco, and Wade Wyman will all be on display. Show hours are 3PM-8PM Friday, 9AM-6PM Saturday, and 9AM-4PM Sunday, and admission is $19.99 per day (kids 12 and under free).

The season opener set the tone for an exciting season to come, with dramatic finishes all weekend long and only a handful of drivers able to sweep both rounds of the doubleheader. Chapman and Greco were two of the racers who managed to go back-to-back, while front-runners like Ryder VanBeekum, Chase Carr, and Ryder Chapman would also establish themselves as names to beat among the healthy Pro fields.

The series attracted first-time entries from Carr, Beau Judge, Jeremiah Wagner, and Kolton Krajicek, and it also kicked off its first Pro Lite championship. Holtger, the Midwest champion this year, will make his CORR season debut in December, joining Michael Funk, who filled in for him at the opener and is among those returning for the next event.

The 2025-26 CORR season is set to be the biggest in series history, with free live streaming coverage of all rounds on the RACER+ app, YouTube, Facebook, and Rumble joined by 10 one-hour recap shows on the RACER Network. Jim Beaver and Tiffany Stone will have the call of the action all season long.
