An internationally renowned East Valley driving school likely will be under new ownership by the end of this week as a sea of red ink washed it onto the auction block in federal bankruptcy court.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Brenda K. Smith was scheduled to preside last Friday, March 22, over the auction of the Bob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving near Chandler with an eye to wrapping up the sale by the end of this week.
The auction was requested by representatives of owners Bob and Patty Bondurant even as they had a separate set of lawyers warning that the sale will not include the racing Paradise Valley legend’s name, extensive memorabilia and a small fleet of motorcycles and cars at the site, located on the Gila River Indian Community next to Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park.
