King of the Hammers 2011

Some of the first footage from yesterday's LCQ and main race. (KOH is a mix of desert racing and rock crawling. The biggest 4x4 event in the World.)



Good carnage here...

BTW TDS is next month. Jishory, you goin? Justin?

Last years vid to get you up to speed on KOH.

That's just plain crazy fun man.

Insane fun man. Especially after the sun goes down.

I wonder if robotics will ever try to weasle in on the fun.

Great vids.... thanks for sharing

I went Wednesday and came back Saturday. Wish I would have known you were there I would have hit you up. My body is still expelling dust.

As far as tds goes maybe. Having some foot surgeries and working on tubing out the front of the blazer...

I'll post pics of the damage I did out there which is triggering this.

I came in this thread looking for a Hammer King. Very misleading.

KOH coming up... who's going?

I'll be there. Headed out next weekend too (20th) just for fun, it would be cool to meet up. Any particular group you go with?

The group I used to go with was a bubch of Yota guys I knew through Pirate and my friend but he's in freakin PA now.

I'm talking with HeavyMetalXJ from HeavyMetalConcepts right now (guys that did the official KOH vids last year). I offered up help just now.... we'll see what happens.

Did you hear Pirate sold out? Lance sold out to some fucked up corp I guess.

It's corporate owned now.

Well if you want I am sure I will have an open seat and room for some gear. Our plan is to head out to a further out trail early to avoid the back door circus and set up some easy ups and lawn chairs and watch the race without a crowd full of morons, then head back in the afternoon some time.

Awesome bro. Thanks. I should be Ok though. I have one main plan and 2 contingency plans. It'll be fun to see what happens.

Looks like I'm not going to make it this year.

My friend that I threw the bachelor party for... his wife lost her baby a couple of days ago in-term. She was due in 2 weeks.


Have fun for me Jishory.

Damn sorry to hear that. I blew up both front axle shafts last weekend and punched a hole in my gas tank, most of which occurred on back door. I will now be towing my buddies 4 runner out.

Thanks...

You towing it with the Chevy/6bt you just built?

Side note: Saw your build thread on P4x4. :smokin:

Yup. 6bt .

Towed my blazer out and a literal ton of wood, there and back on 20 gallons.
