King of the Hammers isn’t just a race, it’s a proving ground. Every year, Hammertown becomes the epicenter of off-road chaos. The lakebed turns into a battlefield. Drivers push past limits, machines get tested to failure, and only the toughest make it to the finish line. What started as a race between 12 teams going head-to-head for bragging rights and a case beer, has now transformed into one of the industry’s most insane spectacles of endurance and performance. Currently, KOH consists of 8 races featuring 770 teams and brings out over 80,000 spectators… Not to mention the 2.5M online viewers. It’s safe to say we love putting our wheels on full display for the world to see at KOH.
And boy did our wheels deliver. Up front, in the winner’s circle, and in the fight. From UTV domination to Unlimited truck podiums, our athletes put together an unforgettable week of racing stacked with wins, hard-earned seconds, and finishes that prove the future is only getting louder and faster.
