(Photos by Chad) –\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>One of the things I am always envious of Chad for is the fact that there’s cool car stuff happening year ’round where he lives. The shows, the cruises, and the events literally don’t stop unlike most other places where they do. It is not even limited to car stuff these days as just about two hours down the road from Chad’s front door is Johnson Valley which serves as the home for the NITTO King of the Hammers, the most intense, hardcore, violent and bonkers off-road race in the country. Partially a desert truck race, partially a rock crawling\/bouncing carnage-fest, it has given birth to an entirely new form of off-road vehicle over the years and people are still evolving their rigs to be better, bigger, and faster.<\/p>\n

Chad shot a LOT of photos from the event and we’ll be pouring them on strong over the coming days. Here’s the latest sample of King of the Hammers action featuring the gnarliest or the gnarly the Ultra 4 class!<\/p>\n
