With the end in sight of the weeklong King of the Hammers desert mega-race and rock crawl in Johnson Valley, this is your last chance to get in on the fun at this year’s 11th annual event. Reporter Mike Lipsitz has more on what to expect …
This Friday will see the culmination of the week’s races with the 8 a.m. start of the final heat aka the King of the Hammers race. The winners will truly have proven themselves by the conclusion some 14 hours later at 10 p.m. Anyone still standing on Saturday will be welcome to participate in the final event known as the King of the Hammers Experience, and described as “a once in a lifetime chance to experience the Hammers like never before” … a journey on one of the most brutal race courses ever created. Saturday’s “Experience” follows a 9 a.m. awards ceremony where all the week’s winners will be recognized. In addition to the thousands of spectators on the dry lake bed, an estimated 50,000 more are expected to tune in online. For the week’s complete schedule, go to www.ultra4racing.com
