  1. In Greek mythology, battles among the Titans as well as Olympians prevailed, with many of the battles lasting years at once. We were just recently able to take the 2017 Ford Raptor to King of the Hammers in Johnson Valley, California in our own fight of the Gods, pitting one of the hardest off-road races worldwide versus among the most difficult manufacturing off-road rigs out. Approved, we would not be racing in the 2017 King of the Hammers (KOH), but we wanted to take on the desert that the teams would certainly be taking on all week. The next ideal point to do with a landscape like Johnson Valley as well as 2017 ford raptor aftermarket exhaust a vehicle like the 2017 Raptor is to get out of Hammertown and check out. This year's race we would go to the top 5 areas that must be seen while visiting KOH with a 2017 Ford Raptor. 5. Start Finish Line While this is the closest location as well as component of Hammertown, it is a great location to start as well as finish your day. You have the ability to see the beginning of the race at the daybreak as well as completion of the race hrs later. While heading to the starting line, you do have to park and stroll, so there is very little off-roading to do, it still makes the listing. If you had hit the road to hard throughout the week this is likewise a fantastic location to wheel in your cooler as well as upload up before the podium, announcers, and also the massive Jumbotron, not to mention the unlimited supply of energy drinks simply a few steps away. All the services are right here; washrooms, food, and also vendors all are centrally located. It is where we started and ended our day and a terrific place to see each year. With adequate sitting around we wanted to see some activity so we headed to the training course to see the race rigs face to face. 4. Remote Pit 1 This location is off the beaten course of many KOH goers. This was on our checklist to head to right after awakening as well as getting to the pit within 30 minutes of the begin. The teams just undergo this pit on the very first lap, so if you get there late, you will certainly miss them. To access this area, you have to leave Hammertown and head back towards freeway 247. When on the freeway, you head in the direction of Bessemer Mine Roadway and Soggy Dry Lake. The roadway out to Remote Pit 1 is what seems like a maintained dirt road. It is still regarding a 15 to 20-minute drive on Bessemer Mine Roadway prior to striking the pit, so plan accordingly. Among the great advantages of this area is you are able to see the lorries two times. They enter the pit from the starting line, leave as well as do a loop via the mountains and desert prior to coming back with the pit and in the direction of Backdoor The gears come into the pit, have a rate constraint, and then get back on the gas. Along with some great watching areas, the quantity of viewer traffic that goes out to this location is extremely marginal. On the whole, it is around a 35 to 40-minute drive to and also from Hammertown. It might be some added driving, yet it's a place worth going to.

  2. 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 a place you intend to visit, ensure you get there early, as it fills quickly. We did not get to Backdoor till after coming by Remote Pit 1, and the location was packed. Auto parking goes to a premium as well as will certainly allow you to avoid the soft sand to as well as from the barrier. This year's race brought groups down Backdoor as well as down the falls. In years past, this was a traffic jam with racers battling to rise the waterfall first. As one of the last challenges before heading back up capital and right into Hammertown, it was a great place to see chauffeurs pushing their gears better. Capitals along both sides provide spectators excellent seats and a bird's eye view. This is definitely one area you intend to take a look at, whether it is your very first KOH or tenth. 2. Delicious chocolate Thunder A glistening hillside off in the distance from Hammertown, Chocolate Rumbling feels like it has something taking place all week, whether it gets on the day of the race or the followers attempting to conquer the rocks late during the night. This year, we had the ability to capture the activity throughout the race and also the night before. If you have been to this location during the day, we strongly advise you see it during the night. There is a different vibe as well as really feel when the sunlight drops. Race day brought something different to Chocolate Rumbling as racers would certainly have to go down the high rough hillside prior to rising the traditional trail. This area is a hotspot for spectators as well as can bring crowds as big as the ones at Backdoor. There are lots of areas to see from, consisting of a jumbotron showing the various other barriers and race updates. 1. Parts Unknown With an automobile as qualified as the Raptor, it just made sense to go out into the desert and also locate locations where we would get a great view of the race, yet be away from every person. These locations are except rookies or an unreliable vehicle. On our experience to a couple locations, we discussed small rock yards, up high notches, and via some soft sand. The surface appeared to be ever-changing as well as something that we had the ability to adapt to with the different surface settings of the Raptor.

  3. We did not fret once that we would certainly not be able to get back to Hammertown. The vehicle was executed its paces and also did things that would certainly have stunned the typical off-roader. The trip to these locations was absolutely worth it. We were able to capture the racers coming down some enormous hills, as well as through a component of the program most individuals never see.
