  1. In Greek folklore, fights amongst the Titans and Olympians were common, with much of the battles in 2014 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 battle of the Gods, matching one of the toughest off-road races in the world versus one of the hardest production off-road deck. Approved, we would certainly not be competing in the 2017 King of the Hammers (KOH), but we intended to tackle the desert that the teams would certainly be handling all week. The following best thing to do with a landscape like Johnson Valley and also a car like the 2017 Raptor is to get out of Hammertown as well as explore. This year's race we would go to the top five places that ought to be seen while seeing KOH with a 2017 Ford Raptor. 5. Start Finish Line While this is the closest place and also component of Hammertown, it is an excellent place to begin and end your day. You are able to see the start of the race at the first light and completion of the race hours later on. While heading to the starting line, you do have to park as well as stroll, so there is not much off-roading to do, it still makes the list. If you had actually taken off to hard throughout the week this is additionally a great location to wheel in your cooler and post up before the podium, commentators, and also the enormous Jumbotron, in addition to the unlimited supply of energy beverages simply a few steps away. All the facilities are right here; restrooms, food, as well as vendors all are centrally located. It is where we began and also ended our day and also a great area to see every year. With enough kicking back we intended to see some activity so we headed to the training course to see the race gears in person. 4. Remote Pit 1 This area is off the beaten path of most KOH goers. This was on our list to go to right after waking up as well as reaching the pit within thirty minutes of the beginning. The teams only experience this pit on the first lap, so if you arrive late, you will miss them. To access this location, you need to leave Hammertown as well as head back towards highway 247. As soon as on the highway, you head in the direction of Bessemer Mine Roadway and Soggy Dry Lake. The roadway bent on Remote Pit 1 is what appears like a conserved dust road. It is still about a 15 to 20-minute drive on Bessemer Mine Road prior to hitting the pit, so plan accordingly. One of the wonderful benefits of this location is you are able to see the cars twice. They enter into the pit from the starting line, leave as well as do a loop via the mountains and desert prior to returning via the pit and also towards Backdoor The rigs come into the pit, have a rate limitation, and afterwards return on the gas. Along with some wonderful viewing locations, the amount of spectator web traffic that goes out to this place is extremely marginal. On the whole, it is around a 35 to 40-minute drive to and from Hammertown. It might be some additional driving, but it's a place worth mosting likely to. 3. Backdoor. This location is one of the staples of KOH. It is a location that sees high web traffic all week, from the Shootout to race day. If this is a location you intend to go to, make certain you get there early, as it fills out fast.

  2. We did not reach Backdoor until after visiting Remote Pit 1, as well as the location was loaded. Vehicle parking is at a costs and will permit you to avoid the soft sand to and also from the barrier. This year's race brought groups down Backdoor and also down the falls. In years past, this was a bottleneck with racers battling to get up the waterfall first. As one of the last obstacles prior to heading back up capital and into Hammertown, it was a terrific place to see vehicle drivers pushing their gears additionally. Capitals along both sides give spectators fantastic seats as well as a bird's eye sight. This is definitely one location you intend to look into, whether it is your first KOH or tenth. 2. Delicious chocolate Rumbling A sparkling hillside off distant from Hammertown, Delicious chocolate Rumbling seems like it has something going on all week, whether it's on the motorhomes for rent in denver colorado day of the race or the fans trying to conquer the rocks late during the night. This year, we were able to capture the action throughout the race as well as the night prior to. If you have been to this place during the day, we highly suggest you see it in the evening. There is a different vibe as well as really feel when the sun goes down. Race day brought something various to Chocolate Rumbling as racers would certainly have to go down the high rough hillside prior to going up the standard trail. This area is a hotspot for spectators as well as can bring crowds as big as the ones at Backdoor. There are a lot of areas to enjoy from, consisting of a jumbotron showing the other challenges and race updates. 1. Parts Unknown With a vehicle as capable as the Raptor, it just made sense to head out into the desert and find locations where we would get a bird's-eye view of the race, yet be away from every person. These areas are not for newbies or an unreliable lorry. On our experience to a couple areas, we looked at tiny rock yards, up high notches, as well as via some soft sand. The surface seemed to be ever-changing as well as something that we were able to adjust to with the various surface modes of the Raptor. We did not worry when that we would not have the ability to return to Hammertown. The truck was put through its paces and also did things that would have stunned the average off-roader. The trip to these areas was most definitely worth it. We were able to capture the racers coming down some huge hills, and with a part of the program the majority of people never see.
