PCI Race Radios Backs the American Off-Road Racing Championship

Off-road racing is evolving — and PCI Race Radios is right where it belongs: supporting racers at the center of it all.

PCI Race Radios is proud to join the American Off-Road Racing Championship (AORC) as a supporting sponsor for the 2026 season. This newly formed championship represents a major step forward for desert racing, uniting the sport’s two largest sanctioning bodies into one cohesive, five-race points championship.

For racers, teams, and fans, this means clearer structure, stronger competition, and a more connected future for off-road racing.

A Unified Championship Built for the Future

The American Off-Road Racing Championship brings together Best in the Desert (BITD) and Unlimited Off-Road Racing (UNLTD) — two powerhouse organizations with deep roots and proven track records. Together, they form a unified championship designed to elevate the professional level of desert racing while preserving its heritage.

“We’re excited to welcome PCI Race Radios as a partner for the 2026 season,” said Matt Martelli, CEO of the American Off-Road Racing Championship. “PCI has been deeply rooted in off-road racing for decades. Their dedication to communication, safety, and racer support aligns perfectly with the vision we have for this unified championship.”

Built by Racers, for Racers

For more than 50 years, PCI Race Radios has been trusted by racers at every level — from first-time desert competitors to championship-winning teams. In off-road racing, communication isn’t optional. It’s mission-critical.

PCI designs and manufactures complete communication systems including intercoms, radios, headsets, wiring, and fully integrated solutions for off-road race cars, UTVs, desert trucks, and chase vehicles. Just as important, PCI shows up — providing on-site racer support and hands-on technical help at events across the country.

“Off-road racing is at the core of everything we do,” said Ryder Steinberger, Director of Business Development. “Being on site and supporting racers has always been the most important pillar of our business. This unified championship is a big step forward for the sport, and we’re proud to support a series that prioritizes the racer experience while helping off-road racing grow.”
