  1. In Greek folklore, fights among the Titans and Olympians were common, with much of the battles lasting years at a time. We were recently able to take the 2017 Ford Raptor to King of the Hammers in Johnson Valley, The Golden State in our very own battle of the Gods, pitting among the hardest off-road races worldwide compared to one of the most difficult production off-road rigs out. Granted, we would certainly not be competing in the 2017 King of the Hammers (KOH), but we wished to handle the desert that the teams would certainly be tackling all week. The next finest point to do with a landscape like Johnson Valley as well as a car like the 2017 Raptor is to get out of Hammertown and discover. This year's race we would certainly most likely to the top five locations that ought to be seen while going to KOH with a 2017 Ford Raptor. 5. Start Goal While this is the closest area and part of Hammertown, it is a great area to begin and finish your day. You have the ability to see the start of the race at the daybreak and also the end of the race hrs later on. While heading to the starting line, you do have to park and also walk, so there is very little off-roading to do, it still makes the listing. If you had hit the road to hard during the week this is likewise a terrific cheap rental cars in denver co location to wheel in your cooler as well as upload up before the podium, announcers, and the large Jumbotron, and also the endless supply of power beverages just a couple of steps away. All the services are right here; restrooms, food, and also vendors all are centrally situated. It is where we began as well as finished our day and a terrific area to see annually. With adequate relaxing we intended to see some activity so we headed to the program to see the race rigs in person. 4. Remote Pit 1 This location is off the ruined path of a lot of KOH goers. This was on our checklist to visit right after waking up as well as reaching the pit within thirty minutes of the begin. The groups only experience this pit on the initial lap, so if you arrive late, you will certainly miss them. To access this area, you need to leave Hammertown and also head back towards freeway 247. Once on the freeway, you head towards Bessemer Mine Road and also Soggy Dry Lake. The roadway out to Remote Pit 1 is what seems like a conserved dirt roadway. It is still regarding a 15 to 20- minute drive on Bessemer Mine Road before hitting the pit, so strategy appropriately. Among the great advantages of this place is you have the ability to see the lorries twice. They enter the pit from the starting line, leave and also do a loop via the mountains and desert before returning via the pit and in the direction of Backdoor The gears enter the pit, have a rate limitation, and then return on the gas. Along with some terrific watching locations, the quantity of viewer traffic that goes out to this area is really minimal. Overall, it is around a 35 to 40-minute drive to as well as from Hammertown. It might be some added driving, yet it's a place worth going to. 3. Backdoor. This location is one of the staples of KOH. It is an area that sees high website traffic all week, from the Shootout to race day. If this is an area you wish to visit, make sure you get there early, as it fills fast.

  2. We did not reach Backdoor till after stopping by Remote Pit 1, and also the area was loaded. Vehicle parking goes to a costs as well as will certainly permit you to stay clear of the soft sand to and from the challenge. This year's race brought teams down Backdoor as well as down the falls. In years past, this was a bottleneck with racers dealing with to rise the falls first. As one of the last obstacles prior to heading back up the hill and also right into Hammertown, it was a fantastic place to see chauffeurs pressing their gears better. Capitals along both sides offer viewers great seats as well as a bird's eye sight. This is certainly one location you intend to look into, whether it is your first KOH or tenth. 2. Chocolate Thunder A glistening hill off in the distance from Hammertown, Delicious chocolate Rumbling appears like it has something taking place all week, whether it's on the day of the race or the fans attempting to conquer the rocks late at night. This year, we had the ability to catch the activity during the race as well as the night before. If you have been to this location during the day, we strongly suggest you see it in the evening. There is a different ambiance as well as feel when the sunlight decreases. Race day brought something various to Chocolate Rumbling as racers would have to go down the high rocky hill prior to going up the standard path. This place is a hotspot for viewers and can bring crowds as big as the ones at Backdoor. There are a lot of locations to enjoy from, consisting of a jumbotron revealing the other obstacles and race updates. 1. Components Unidentified With a vehicle as qualified as the Raptor, it only made sense to go out right into the desert and also find locations where we would obtain a great view of the race, however be away from every person. These areas are except novices or an undependable lorry. On our experience to a couple locations, we went over tiny rock yards, up steep notches, and via some soft sand. The terrain appeared to be ever-changing and something that we were able to adapt to with the various terrain settings of the Raptor. We did not worry as soon as that we would not have the ability to return to Hammertown. The vehicle was put through its rates and did things that would have stunned the typical off-roader. The trip to these locations was absolutely worth it. We were able to catch the racers boiling down some substantial hillsides, and through a component of the training course many people never ever see.
