Chad Hord first experienced short-course racing at the historic Bark River
International Off-Road Raceway, where he was instantly hooked and made
it his mission to become a competitive off-road racer. In 1995, Chad began
racing the Super Buggy class with the support of his family as the Hord
Off-Road Racing Team. He won the World Championship and Triple Crown
Championship in 1998 and followed it up with another World Championship
in 1999. Chad’s results did not go unnoticed, and in 2000 he landed his
first major sponsor: BOSS Snowplow. With Boss’ support, Chad won
the Points Championship for the first time and moved into the
Pro Light class where he made his mark as a top-5 driver.
By 2005, Chad was racing full-time and had his biggest
year yet with wins in both the World Championship and
Nissan Nationals Shootout Championships. In 2006 and
2007, Chad won back-to-back Points Championships
in the Pro-Light division, and took home his fourth World Championship title in
2008. Chad’s winning ways continued as he won the 2009 Decision at Sundown
Championship and took home the Oakley Bomb Award in his Pro 4X4 debut in
the Traxxas Off-Road Championship (TORC). In 2010, Chad moved to the hotly
contested Pro 2WD ranks where he consistently ran in the top five and landed on
the podium with second and third place finishes, earning fourth overall in TORC’s
year-end points standings.
Throughout his off-road career, Chad has won 30 races, three Points
Championships, and four World Championships. He has 115 top five finishes in
155 starts with 24 wins in the pro-truck classes. He is also the first and only driver
to have an Oakley Bomb Award for the fastest lap in all three TORC pro-truck
classes: Pro Light, Pro 2WD, and Pro 4X4. Look for Chad and his signature Boss
Snowplow Pro 2WD in the winner’s circle as the TORC Series continues!
