One of the off-road’s most legendary brands is back with the BFGoodrich Tires Mint 400 in 2024, as KC will once again serve as a supporting sponsor of the Great American Off-Road Race. KC products and rad vehicles will be on display at the Mint 400 Off-Road Festival on Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas on Thursday, March 7.
“All of us at the BFGoodrich Tires Mint 400 are thrilled to welcome KC back for the 2024 edition of the Great American Off-Road Race,” said Mint 400 CEO Matt Martelli. “The KC logo is one of the most familiar off-road icons in the world, and stands as a symbol of quality and a beacon of adventure. Don’t miss them at the Mint 400 Off-Road Festival in downtown Las Vegas, where you can check out their latest and greatest lighting solutions before watching KC-backed racers take on the event!”
KC’s list of racers entered in this year’s Mint 400 is a who’s who of some of the top names in the sport. Unlimited Truck racers who will rely on KC to light their way to the finish line include legends like Rob MacCachren, Ryan Arciero, Tim Herbst, and Steve Olliges. Unlimited Truck SPEC entries include the next generation of the Herbst and Olliges families, Nick Isenhouer, Jason Coleman, and UFC legend Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone, while numerous UTV, sportsman, and even vintage racers will also rely on KC during Friday’s Limited Race.
Ever since the company’s founders modified a pair of airplane landing lights and strapped them to their truck in 1970, KC has been redefining what’s possible in automotive lighting. Today, more than 50 years later, the iconic brand has become synonymous with off-roading. That’s probably why KCs have been featured in numerous movies and streaming video series, from Back to the Future to Stranger Things. The company is still family-owned, so it doesn’t have to answer to shareholders. Instead, its team can focus solely on meeting the needs of its customers, as together, they Defy Limits and Adventure Further. For more information on KC, visit www.kchilites.com.
