Hemmings Motor News GREAT RACE presented by Coker Tire
It's that time of year! June is when the Hemmings Motor News Great Race presented by Coker Tire hits the road and visits more than a dozen cities, over the course of nine days. The event is the premier time, speed, distance rally for classic vehicles, and we're proud to be the presenting sponsor. Because of that, several of our staff members travel with the race, and we added Steve Jackson to that group as a welcomed addition to the Great Race team. The route changes every year, and for 2024, the Great Race travels from Owensboro, Kentucky to Gardiner, Maine, hitting 13 states along the way. At the time of this writing, four days of competition are complete, and there have been four different overall winners for each day's competition. The leaderboard is tightening up, and all four daily winners (so far) rely on Coker Tire products to stay consistent during the nine-day, 2,300-mile rally. This year, we have two sponored teams, a 1932 Ford five-window coupe as well as a beautiful Packard convertible, which rolls on a set of our all-new Coker Classic Star Series wide whitewall tires. Take a look at some of our highlights and stay tuned to the Great Race website for more daily content.
