Ill b out there. Tues afternoon till?
Would love to meet up and run a trail or two. Full bodied rigs

Anyone have an opinion on what VHF comm channel would b a good one to work off at koh as to not bother everyone? Standard rugged radio programming

I wish. Last time someone invited me I was in San Diego. Travis(lastname?) offered me a ride along in his buggy. When I got of the plane it was so cold I realized I couldn't go.

I had no ride and didn't have my cold weather gear. My Montana clothes. Probably your guys SoCal clothes.

Have fun, be safe.

sledge, jack, wreckingball?

??
anyone?
Sat AM or SUN or Fri afternoon? or all

I'll be there Tues to Sun/Mon. Im positive the trails around the lakebed wont be useable during the event, but theres lots of trail off the immediate grid that would be fun to run as well during the week.

Is some going to take pics of your awesome rig when you wheel Zidaro? I(oops "eye") candy for someone who might never see The Hammers....

zidaro · « **Reply #5 on:** Jan 25, 2014, 12:39:47 PM »

meet ya there, i have a camera you can borrow

Wainiha · « **Reply #6 on:** Jan 25, 2014, 12:55:30 PM »

I don't have $1000.00 for a ticket. Maybe next year. My grandma's birthday is in Feb. --When I was there last year.

I'd take pictures. I'd probably be too scared to rock crawl anyway. Get me in the cab and you're instantly top heavy.

Depends, could be fun if you win, or work if your broke. I'm thinking about going, but just so everyone knows Means is already fenced off and they will be charging to watch.

Slolyfe · « **Reply #12 on:** Jan 26, 2014, 07:40:17 PM »

We will do fun runs preferable trails in the race.

Billy you still in sonoma?

The pits and hammertown are fenced off. Unless you have a vehicle pass linked to a team or pit. Thats good in my opinion because the last few years its been chaos trying to get rigs in and out of the pits.

Wristbands are free or a $20 donation and you get a nicer wristband that shows your not a cheap ass.

My rig wont be, but hopefully some of guys with 4WU product will be. I'll be at Gate 1, Trail Gear Ave. tent 228. Tuning up Racer 4509 and others for the their big days, if anyone gives a crap to stop by.

Wainiha · « **Reply #19 on:** Feb 02, 2014, 02:13:53 PM »

Anyone wanna take pictures for a guy who will never make it there?

zidaro · « **Reply #20 on:** Feb 03, 2014, 10:53:27 AM »

http://ultra4racing.com/live/

backdoor showdown starts at 6pm tonight

Wainiha · « **Reply #21 on:** Feb 03, 2014, 12:27:48 PM »

I'll check Pirate. I've seen pics of the event before. I thought I would enjoy some of the guys I recognize. Like you and your rig. Marlin crew and 4WU. Thanks Zidaro.

I hate stopping to take shots when having fun wheeling or all greased up. Can't blame anyone else for not wanting to take any.

superyota · « **Reply #22 on:** Feb 03, 2014, 12:39:19 PM »

You guys suck! This is the first year since 08 that I'm going to miss KOH. New job has me working on call this week. Have fun and post up some good pics. The east vs west shootout tonight should be a good show.

jrock · « **Reply #23 on:** Feb 04, 2014, 08:41:02 AM »

Shootout!

HogCanyonHopper · « **Reply #24 on:** Feb 04, 2014, 08:47:05 AM »

Man!! it was so fun to watch. some good runs for sure. Busted Knuckles drove away from their rear axle

. great stuff. Bomber Fab ftw!

zidaro · « **Reply #25 on:** Feb 04, 2014, 10:46:33 AM »

Toyotadon · « **Reply #26 on:** Feb 04, 2014, 01:49:17 PM »

It looks like there's no Marlin Crawler rig this year, or am I mistaken?

hytenor · « **Reply #27 on:** Feb 06, 2014, 05:43:00 PM »

A lot of Yotas crossed the finish line today, well done guys!! Brian was so stoked I though he was gonna cry on the podium :p There was even an IFS truck on course...and doing pretty well, LOL

zidaro · « **Reply #28 on:** Feb 09, 2014, 08:16:15 AM »

Good times, great racin', perfect weather this year!

_HOIST_ · « **Reply #29 on:** Feb 10, 2014, 09:44:26 AM »

I cruised up from AZ on Wednesday and came back Saturday. Had a blast. Weather was kind of rough the afternoon/evening of the main event, but can't complain. I had just as much fun watching people wheel at night on the obstacles as I did watching the competitors!
