BILSTEIN Racers Conquer the Mint 400!: A Story of Grit, Determination and Victory
The Nevada desert was relentless. The dust choked the air, the sun beat down mercilessly, and the terrain seemed determined to break even the most seasoned racers. But for BILSTEIN-equipped drivers, this wasn’t just another race—it was a proving ground. The Mint 400, one of the most legendary off-road races in the world, tested the limits of both man and machine. And once again, BILSTEIN racers rose to the challenge.
Mastering the Course: Justin Park & Cole Andrews in Class 7F
In the punishing world of Class 7F racing, precision and endurance are everything. Justin Park and Cole Andrews knew this well as they lined up at the start, their truck fitted with BILSTEIN’s race-proven suspension technology. The course ahead was brutal, but lap after lap, they executed flawlessly—handling every deep rut and treacherous wash with unwavering control. By the time they crossed the finish line, they had secured 1st place once again. Remarkably, their truck looked cleaner than when they started, a testament to Park’s smooth driving and the unparalleled performance of BILSTEIN shocks.
