The Bob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving was an American performance driving school located in Chandler, Arizona at the Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park.[1]
At the time of its founding, the school was the largest purpose-built driving school in the world. It featured a 15-turn, 1.6-mile road course, an eight-acre asphalt pad for advanced training with more than 100 race-prepared vehicles.[2] Bob Bondurant's copyrighted Bondurant Method taught competition driving, police pursuit driving, evasive driving for chauffeurs and bodyguards, stunt driving, and other courses.[3][4]
The school graduated over 500,000 drivers since its opening in 1968. Many NASCAR drivers were trained at Bondurant's school for road course training, along with many celebrity actors for driving scenes, including Paul Newman and Robert Wagner for the movie "Winning".[citation needed]
