  1. In Greek mythology, battles amongst the Titans as well as Olympians prevailed, with a number of the battles in 2015 at a time. We were lately able to take the 2017 Ford Raptor to King of the Hammers in Johnson Valley, California in our own fight of the Gods, pitting among the most difficult off-road races on the planet compared to one of the toughest production off-road deck. Approved, we would not be racing in the 2017 King of the Hammers (KOH), however we wished to handle the desert that the teams would certainly be taking on all week. The following ideal point to do with a landscape like Johnson Valley as well as a lorry like the 2017 Raptor is to leave Hammertown and explore. This year's race we would certainly go to the top five places that ought to be seen while visiting KOH with a 2017 Ford Raptor. 5. Beginning Finish Line While this is the closest location as well as part of Hammertown, it is a great area to start and finish your day. You have the ability to see the begin of the race at the crack of dawn and completion of the race hrs later. While heading to the starting line, you do need to park as well as walk, so there is very little off-roading to do, it still makes the listing. If you had actually hit the trails to hard during the week this is likewise a fantastic area to wheel in your cooler and also publish up in front of the platform, announcers, as well as the huge Jumbotron, not to mention the countless supply of energy drinks simply a few actions away. All the services are here; restrooms, food, and also suppliers all are centrally situated. It is where we began and finished our day as well as an excellent area to see every year. With adequate relaxing we wanted to see some action so we headed to the program to see the race gears personally. 4. Remote Pit 1 This area is off the beaten path of many KOH goers. This got on our listing to visit right after getting up as well as getting to the pit within thirty minutes of the beginning. The groups only undergo this pit on the very first lap, so if you get there late, you will miss them. To access this area, you need to leave Hammertown and also head back in the direction of freeway 247. As soon as on the highway, you head towards Bessemer Mine Road as well as Soggy Dry Lake. The roadway out to Remote Pit 1 is what seems like a kept dirt roadway. It is still about a 15 to 20-minute drive on Bessemer Mine Roadway prior to striking the pit, so plan appropriately. One of the good advantages of this place is you are able to see the lorries twice. They come into the pit from the starting line, leave and also do a loop via the mountains and also desert prior to returning with the pit as well as towards Backdoor The gears come into the pit, have a rate limitation, and then get back on the gas. Along with some excellent viewing locations, the quantity of viewer web traffic that heads out to this location is very marginal. Overall, it is around a 35 to 40-minute drive to and from Hammertown. It might be some additional driving, but it's an area worth going to. 3. Backdoor. This area is one of the staples of KOH. It is an area that sees high web traffic all week, from the Shootout to race day. If this is a place you want to go to, make sure you arrive early, as it fills quick.

  2. We did not get to Backdoor up until after coming by Remote Pit 1, as well as the area was packed. Car parking goes to a premium and will permit you to prevent the soft sand to and from the barrier. This year's race brought teams down Backdoor as well as down the waterfall. In years past, this was a traffic jam with racers dealing with to craigslist denver colorado cars for sale by owner stand up the falls initially. As one of the last barriers before heading back up capital as well as into Hammertown, it was a great place to see vehicle drivers pressing their rigs better. Capitals along both sides offer viewers wonderful seats and also a bird's eye sight. This is definitely one place you wish to check out, whether it is your very first KOH or tenth. 2. Chocolate Thunder A glistening hill off distant from Hammertown, Delicious chocolate Rumbling seems like it has something taking place all week, whether it gets on the day of the race or the followers attempting to overcome the rocks late in the evening. This year, we had the ability to catch the activity throughout the race as well as the night before. If you have actually been to this place during the day, we strongly recommend you see it during the night. There is a different ambiance and also feel when the sun decreases. Race day brought something different to Delicious chocolate Thunder as racers would have to go down the steep rough hill prior to increasing the typical trail. This area is a hotspot for spectators as well as can bring groups as large as the ones at Backdoor. There are plenty of locations to enjoy from, consisting of a jumbotron showing the various other challenges and race updates. 1. Parts Unidentified With a vehicle as capable as the Raptor, it only made good sense to go out into the desert as well as discover locations where we would get a bird's-eye view of the race, however be far from everybody. These areas are not for novices or an unreliable car. On our adventure to a couple locations, we looked at little rock gardens, up high notches, and also through some soft sand. The terrain appeared to be ever-changing and something that we had the ability to adapt to with the different surface settings of the Raptor. We did not stress as soon as that we would certainly not have the ability to get back to Hammertown. The vehicle was put through its paces as well as did things that would certainly have amazed the ordinary off-roader. The trip to these locations was most definitely worth it. We had the ability to capture the racers boiling down some large hills, and with a component of the program the majority of people never see.
