Born behind a city convenience store in June of 1986 by Finger Food Products proprietor Robert F. Cordova, Original Pizza Logs of Niagara Falls, N.Y. was named the "Official Food of Niagara Falls" in 1990 and 20 years later the now nationally recognized entity has emerged just as popular at the Ontario County Fairgrounds.
 
“Bob has been an avid supporter of area racing for a number of years, helping out a lot of top teams as well as the tracks they compete,” noted CMP Promoter Jeremie Corcoran, now anxiously awaiting opening day in Canandaigua just two months away. “We’re glad to have him back to help launch our new era at the ‘Land of Legends’ and continue to provide our fans with some fun food on race night.”
 
The mighty Big-Blocks roll off the line Sat. April 9 as part of the 48th season-opener alongside a full program of Sportsman Modified, Parts Plus Stock Car and Rochester Steel Pure Stock action. Just one week later the first special of the year arrives with Big-Blocks contending in the inaugural Jan Corcoran Memorial featuring a 64-lap main event with added cash on the line for the April 16 spring spectacular.
 
“Canandaigua was one of the tracks I used to visit when starting out and I still like to pop in when I get the chance,” said Cordova, who shared former Canandaigua regular Chad Brachmann's 2001 Mr. DIRTcar Sportsman Championship run in his first year of team sponsorship. Successful chauffeurs sporting the Original Pizza Logs colors this season at the Routes 5 & 20 oval are Big-Block veteran Charlie Donk (9 wins) and six-time Stock Car points champion Mike Welch (39 wins).
 
“The ‘Land of Legends’ is still an important track so anything I can do to help the place is definitely something worthwhile. It’s got a great history and some real good racing, I’m certainly looking forward to getting back there and being a part,” Cordova added.
 
No longer just a Western New York phenomenon, Original Pizza Logs are now available in most states both east and west of the Mississippi and in select markets as far away as Alaska and Puerto Rico, with distribution centers in Japan, Australia and South America on the drawing board. The signature product ---Pepperoni & Cheese Pizza Logs--- from day one has since expanded to 10 flavorful varieties.
 
Today, Cordova remains as passionate with Original Pizza Logs as he does in the pits, traveling whenever possible to tracks from New York to North Carolina to appease his appetite.
