Seat Time and Sticky BFG Tires Make for the Perfect Track Night Combo this June, As Does a Drawing for Free Tires

Wanna drive faster on the racetrack? Seat time is undeniably the single most important item that will get you to where you want to be. Tires? Those are the other single most important item. Fun fact: In June, those two single most important items are teaming up to ensure you get more of what you (we all!) want. 

SCCA’s Track Night in America® Driven by Tire Rack puts you on the best motorsport circuits in the U.S. at an unbeatable price. Other than, that price is about to get beat thanks to Track Night’s June partner, BFGoodrich Tires.

Oh, and this June you could also win a free set of BFGoodrich tires.

That Discount

Most Track Night outings ring in at around $175 (already a steal), but BFGoodrich’s special Track Night discount code knocks $25 off that low price in June when you register for any Track Night in America that has registration open.

And that discount code is no secret. It’s: TNIABFG26.

That discount code puts you in the driver’s seat for more seat time (remember, that’s the #1 item that’ll make you faster, and Track Night is the place that puts pretty much anyone on the racetrack in their own street car, regardless of skill), and if you’re running BFGoodrich rubber (which, as you recall, tires are the other #1 item you need to go fast), you’ll get up to speed quicker than ever, and at a price that can’t be beat.

While you don’t need to be running BFGoodrich tires to get the June Track Night discount, you probably will want to snag a set. But which tires are perfect for the road you’re about to drive? There are so many options.

This Rubber

While Track Night in America is all about non-timed, on-track driving at a pace that’s comfortable to you (meaning there’s zero pressure to go faster than you want), we would not recommend installing some of BFGoodrich’s extensive off-road tire lineup on your car for the event, regardless of how well-known BFGoodrich is in that industry.

“The name BFGoodrich might make you think of big knobby mud tires, but the brand was born on pavement,” said BFGoodrich Brand Manager T.J. Dennis. “BFG on-road took a back seat to the brand’s off-road success and was quiet for a while, but we’re making noise again – and as we like to say: Squealing tires are happy tires.”

We love BFGoodrich’s off-road tires, but it’s the company’s expanded performance tire lineup that has our interest for Track Night outings.

Which BFGoodrich g-Force tire would we pick for a Track Night? Here are the ones to shop for, listed from least to most aggressive – although any of these are going to leave you with a smile:

  • COMP-2 A/S Plus: An all-season tire that can unleash ultra-high performance on demand.
  • Phenom T/A: BFGoodrich’s newest summer UHP tire that’s at home on the street and outstanding on track.
  • Rival: Extreme performance 200 treadwear tires available in two compounds: Rival S offers quick warm-up for time trials and autocross, while Rival+ is tuned for consistency in longer stints and endurance racing.

We’d also check out BFGoodrich’s recently released (and completely free online!) Performance Driving Guide, which was written in conjunction with pro racer and driving coach Ross Bentley.

“We’ve introduced new ultra-high performance tires and returned to our roots in the motorsports community by partnering with events like SCCA’s Track Night in America, where any tire in the BFGoodrich g-Force family would shine,” said Dennis.

Those Free Tires

Remember the free tires we teased all those paragraphs ago?

For every Track Night in America event you participate in during the month of June, your name will be put in the drawing for a free set of BFGoodrich g-Force tires. And we’re not just doing that drawing once in June – we’re doing it four times, giving away a total of four sets of BFGoodrich tires.

This is where it gets tricky: Those participating prior to the first drawing will be in the running for the first set of tires. If you want to be in the drawing for the second set of tires, you’ll need to participate in another Track Night event in June. The same for the third and fourth. If you participate in only one Track Night event and it’s in late June, you’ll only be in the final drawing. Make sense?

Saying the same thing but with mildly different words: Participate in a Track Night event in June and your name will be placed in a drawing for a free set of BFGoodrich g-Force tires. We’re repeating that fun four times in June, and your entry will only count in one drawing per event that you participate in. So, if you participate in early June, you’ll get in that first drawing. Want to be in the second drawing? You’ll need to participate in another June Track Night. Same for the third and fourth drawings.

What Fun!

The formula is simple: Get more seat time while using great tires. Combined, they’re the #1 key to speed. Add in the discount June code (TNIABFG26) for an extra $25 off your Track Night entry, and you’re on your way to a hefty dose of fun – and fun is the single most important item.

The chance to win one of four free sets of BFGoodrich tires is the cherry on top.
