Mississippi RT Car Tag Update
We’re excited to share that we’ve reached our goal of 300 tag applications. To mark this milestone, we held a drawing among the first 300 participants for a $300 cash award. Congratulations to Lainey Hong, who was selected as our prize recipient! Thank you to everyone who took the time to purchase a tag and spread the word! Your involvement made this achievement possible, and we genuinely appreciate your support.
Next Steps: We will be submitting the tag applications to the Mississippi Department of Revenue this month. After submission, it typically takes approximately 2–3 months for the new specialty plate to be configured and moved into production. Afterwards, we will be notified when the tags are available for the public. We will continue to provide updates on our social media channels and on our website as the process moves forward.
