Short Course Off-Road Racing Joins The 2025 Mint 400

SAN DIEGO, Ca. — UNLTD Off-Road Racing announced the addition of short course off-road racing to the 2025 Mint 400 March 5th-9th, uniting short course and desert racing into a single event. Short course vehicles, including Pro4, Pro2, Pro Lite, Pro UTV’s and more, are set to tackle The Mint 400 and be fully integrated into marquee Mint 400 events like the vehicle parade down the Las Vegas Strip and the Off-Road Festival (Tech & Contingency) on world-famous Fremont Street. 

The short course races will take place over two days of racing on Friday, March 7, and Saturday, March 8 on a newly freshened Primm Valley short course track and be featured in The Mint 400 live stream on YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, backed by industry-leading Mad Media social media content campaigns. The race will also be broadcast live on SPEED SPORT 1. 

“We have been eager to bring short course racing to The Mint 400 in a more profound way than ever before, harkening back to the Mickey Thompson era,” said Matt Martelli, CEO of UNLTD Off-Road Racing. “We grew up attending the Mickey Thompson stadium races as well as desert races, and it was always a united culture. From racing at Riverside, to the LA Coliseum to downtown Tokyo, Mickey showed us that anything is possible.”

“We are looking forward to expanding our infrastructure and feature these remarkable vehicles to the massive built-in audience of The Mint 400,” said Kilian Hamlin, Event Director of UNLTD Off-Road Racing. “We’re thrilled to unleash Pro2’s, Pro4’s and more pro classes on a newly prepped short course track at the Official Start/Finish Line in Primm, Nev. Get ready for some mind-blowing door-to-door off-road action, we’re excited to welcome the short course racing community to The Mint 400!”Â
