Mint 400 preview

For the 2026 BFGoodrich Tires Mint 400, betting odds are available through BetOnline AG, featuring odds for the overall winner, class winners, and specialty prop bets. Defending champion Adam Housholder leads the field, which includes top contenders like Robby Gordon, Eric Hardin, and Kyle Jergensen.

The "Great American Off-Road Race" is back! Matt Martelli joins Erik Apple to break down the massive 2026 Mint 400. Following the merger between Unlimited Off-Road Racing and Best In The Desert, this year's event has exploded to over 460 entries, making it twice as large as almost any other off-road race in North America.

Matt gives us the inside scoop on Jimmie Johnson’s return to his off-road roots, the high-stakes battle between Can-Am and Polaris in the UTV classes, and why a four-wheel-drive truck has still never conquered the brutal Mint 400 course. We also look at the technical side of the sport, comparing 1,000HP Unlimited Trucks to the "Spec" classes, and get an update on Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone and his son's racing progress.
