  1. In Greek mythology, battles amongst the Titans and also Olympians prevailed, with a number of the fights in 2014 each time. We were lately able to take the 2017 Ford Raptor to King of the Hammers in Johnson Valley, California in our own battle of the Gods, pitting among the toughest off-road races in the world vs. among the toughest manufacturing off-road deck. Provided, we would certainly not be competing in the 2017 King of the Hammers (KOH), yet we intended to tackle the desert that the groups would certainly be handling all week. The next ideal thing to do with a landscape like Johnson Valley and a vehicle like the 2017 Raptor is to leave Hammertown and also explore. This year's race we would go to the top 5 areas that should be seen while seeing KOH with a 2017 Ford Raptor. 5. Begin Finish Line While this is the closest area and also part of Hammertown, it is a wonderful place to begin as well as finish your day. You are able to see the beginning of the race at the first light and completion of the race hrs later on.

If you had actually hit the trails to hard during the week this is likewise a terrific area to wheel in your cooler as well as upload up in front of the platform, announcers, as well as the large Jumbotron, as well as the countless supply of power drinks just a couple of actions away. All the amenities are below; toilets, food, and also vendors all are centrally located. It is where we began as well as ended our day and a terrific location to see each year. With adequate sitting around we wished to see some action so we headed to the program to see the race gears in person. 4. Remote Pit 1 This area is off the ruined path of many KOH goers. This got on our listing to head to right after awakening and also getting to the pit within half an hour of the start. The teams only go through this pit on the initial lap, so if you get there late, you will miss them. To access this area, you have to leave Hammertown and head back in the direction of freeway 247. As soon as on the highway, you head towards Bessemer Mine Road and also Soggy Dry Lake. The roadway out to Remote Pit 1 is what appears like a maintained dust roadway. It is still concerning a 15 to 20- minute drive on Bessemer Mine Road prior to striking the pit, so strategy appropriately. Among the great benefits of this area is you are able to see the vehicles twice. They enter the pit from the beginning line, leave as well as do a loop via the hills as well as desert before coming back via the pit and towards Backdoor The rigs enter the pit, have a speed restriction, and after that return on the gas. Along with some terrific watching areas, the quantity of viewer web traffic that heads out to this area is extremely minimal. In general, it is around a 35 to 40-minute drive to and also from Hammertown. It might be some added driving, however it's an area worth going to. 3. Backdoor. This location is just one of the staples of KOH. It is a location that sees high traffic all week, from the Shootout to race day. If this is a place you wish to check out, ensure you arrive early, as it fills quick.

  2. We did not get to Backdoor up until after visiting Remote Pit 1, and also the area was loaded. Auto parking is at a premium and will certainly permit ford f 150 raptor tuning parts you to stay clear of the soft sand to and from the barrier. This year's race brought groups down Backdoor as well as down the falls. In years past, this was a traffic jam with racers fighting to get up the falls initially. As one of the last obstacles prior to heading back up capital as well as into Hammertown, it was a great place to see chauffeurs pushing their gears additionally. Capitals along both sides give viewers terrific seats as well as a bird's eye sight. This is certainly one area you wish to look into, whether it is your very first KOH or tenth. 2. Chocolate Rumbling A sparkling hill off distant from Hammertown, Chocolate Thunder seems like it has something going on all week, whether it's on the day of the race or the fans trying to conquer the rocks late at night. This year, we were able to catch the action during the race and also the evening prior to. If you have actually been to this location during the day, we highly advise you see it at night. There is a different ambiance and also feel when the sun goes down. Race day brought something various to Chocolate Thunder as racers would certainly need to go down the steep rocky hill before increasing the traditional path. This place is a hotspot for viewers and can bring crowds as huge as the ones at Backdoor. There are a lot of locations to enjoy from, including a jumbotron revealing the other challenges as well as race updates. 1. Components Unidentified With a vehicle as capable as the Raptor, it only made good sense to head out right into the desert as well as find locations where we would get a bird's-eye view of the race, yet be away from every person. These locations are not for rookies or an unstable vehicle. On our adventure to a pair areas, we looked at tiny rock yards, up high notches, and also through some soft sand. The terrain appeared to be ever-changing and something that we were able to adapt to with the different surface settings of the Raptor. We did not stress as soon as that we would certainly not be able to get back to Hammertown. The vehicle was executed its speeds as well as did points that would have surprised the average off-roader. The trip to these locations was absolutely worth it. We were able to capture the racers coming down some large hillsides, and also via a component of the training course most people never ever see.
