Thank You from the Hall Family

A Celebration of Life for Rod Hall will be held later this year in Reno, most likely in September or October. As soon as a date has been set, we will be sure to let everyone know.

The Hall Family would like to thank everyone for their kind words of support, with a special thanks to the individuals and businesses who have made donations to the Off-Road Motorsports Hall of Fame in memory of Rod.

ORMHOF Welcomes New Partners

Yokohama Tire Joins ORMHOF as Winners Circle Partner

The Yokohama ad, left, appeared in the first Volume of Dusty Times magazine in 1984, highlighting the tire company's multi-race contingency program.

Fast forward 35 years, and Yokohama is celebrating decades of involvement in the sport of off-road by supporting the Off-Road Motorsports Hall of Fame as a Winners Circle partner.

Yokohama Tire was founded in 1917. In 2013 the company broke ground on a one million square foot manufacturing facility in Mississippi, investing $300 million and creating 500 jobs.

"Having Yokohama Tire join our list of dedicated Hall of Fame partners will help us fulfill our mission to preserve the rich history of the sport of off-road," said ORMHOF chairman Mark McMillin.

ORMHOF Welcomes RPM Offroad as Green Flag Partner

The RPM Offroad story began in 2006 in Bristol, Tennessee as a brick and mortar performance supercenter. In the years since, it has become an internationally known and respected performance shop and race team.

RPM Offroad is the headquarters for the successful off-road desert racing team, Team RPM Offroad, which has earned three overall SCORE championships, as well as the 2017 Baja 1000 overall vehicle title. Many competitive racers, including team owner Justin Matney, compete under the distinctive neon orange of RPM Offroad.

"It's great to see companies like RPM Offroad supporting the Hall of Fame," said ORMHOF chairman Mark McMillin. "Team RPM Offroad is winning championships that will forever be a part of the history of our sport."
