King of the Hammers - The Ultimate Desert Race - 2009

Whos going? Ill be out there sort of working (media/photo). Im going to leave home late Wednesday night and sleeping in my truck at camp with friends who are running communications for the race.

man i might just have to head out there....

Probably go out Friday morning if work allows - which it should.

Wanna go with, Brady?

i might just have to take you up on that one...let me get back to you this weekend or early next week, i might try to see if some friends want to camp thursday night.

Sweet! FTE in the house once again! :)

Heres a video from last years race.

That was cool, so it's a rally? Do they switch drivers?

i dont think they do? do they?

Theres a high speed race section, and a serious rock crawling section all part of the same course. All rigs need to make it through both sections.

That means no then?

I guess you can call it a rally for extremely built rock crawling rigs. Its my first time going to KOH, and it should be yours too :) There will be millions of dollars of bad ass rigs out there.

Another video :)

Brady and I will be out there on Friday morning, Dave. I'll give you a call when we get there around 7:30 or so.

Ive heard theres no cell reception once you get off the highway. Try anyway! Ill keep an eye out for you. If we dont run into each other, take lots of pics.

would love to go this year, but I will be in Panama.
Maybe next year!

Im gonna leave home at 8pm tonight and sleep in my truck up at the event. See you guys there. Ill be on CB channel 17. Try to call my cell if you need 626-488-8016.

There's supposed to be fair phone service near the main tent. I don't have a CB, but I'll give you a try Friday morning.

Why are you going up tonight?
