BFGoodrich Title Sponsor for Mint 400

$10,000 Contingency Up For Grabs

The Mint 400 announced today that BFGoodrich Tires will be the title sponsor of the 2018 Mint 400, known as the Great American Off-Road Race.

This is the first time BFGoodrich has been the title sponsor of the storied race, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year. The Mint 400 has a reputation for being one of off-road racing’s toughest courses, and BFGoodrich uses desert racing as a real-world laboratory to study how their tires perform on the extreme terrain.

Here’s a super-short video clip from BFGoodrich of the 2016 Mint 400.

Race Contingency

To mark the anniversary and the title sponsorship, BFGoodrich is offering a contingency prize of $10,000 to the overall winning team if that team races exclusively on BFGoodrich Tires.

The race begins March 10 in Primm, Nevada, and BFGoodrich will have a large presence at the street festival on Fremont Street, including fan giveaways and an interactive exhibit. Fans can get an up-close look at the racing vehicles and off-roading parts and accessories displayed throughout the street festival downtown Las Vegas on Fremont Street starting on Thursday, March 8.

Here’s the second 2016 video clip that BFGoodrich posted from the 2016 Mint 400.

Race Pit Support

BFGoodrich Tires will provide on-site tire service and race-pit support for teams running on BFGoodrich tires (racers can call 800-RACEBFG to find out more).

If the two, brief video clips weren’t not enough, settle in with some popcorn for a feature-length video of the Mint 400. (PS: Better get the extra-large popcorn.)
