"Mickey Thompson continues to build on its history and experience in the sport since the introduction of the Competition Claw in the late 1990s. This event provides us with the opportunity to showcase our latest technology at Outlaw Off Road Racing events with the Baja Pro X tire," said Jason Moulton, Director of Motorsports, Mickey Thompson Tires & Wheels. "This tire continues to evolve based on feedback from the racers."
Featuring Unlimited Bouncer, UTV and the popular Pro-Am classes, Outlaw Off Road races are based around a side-by-side drag racing format that includes a Christmas Tree starting light. Times are kept individually, and season points are calculated based on the fastest times at each hill for the entire season.
Designed, developed and manufactured proudly in the USA specifically for rock bouncing and crawling, the Mickey Thompson Baja Pro X tire features a sticky compound that provides ultimate grip on hard surfaces, Pro-Tech Construction™ for durability, Dual Decoupling Grooves™ for flexibility on irregular surfaces, and Tread Biter™ cleats for added traction. Removable tread elements are serrated for easy identification, and mud scoops provide added cleaning power.
