Twelve years ago, the King of the Hammers (KOH) race was conceived by a group of friends who decided it would be a good idea to race the “Hammer Trials” in Johnson Valley, CA and try to make it back to camp first. Little did they know that they had just stumbled onto an idea that would soon become the fastest growing off road event in the world.
Griffin Radiator was one of the earliest supporters of King of the Hammers and became first title sponsor of KOH in its second year. The Griffin team was enthusiastic about the opportunities this new form of racing provided as the ultimate proving grounds for Griffin products. The next several years of this event showed tremendous growth as spectator counts went from roughly 50 people to over 50,000 people. The reach of the event changed from a select crowd in Southern California to the entire globe
This year’s edition of KOH features a full week of racing and events include King of the Motos, King of the UTV’s, the Backdoor Shootout, and the Everyman Challenge. It all culminates with the 11th running of the King of the Hammers on February 10.
