| Heard from Kim and team "you're good". Matt rolled the R&S Fab buggy and said "it's gonna be an all nighter". Qualifying track looks rough, no traction and lots of loose boulders, kinda like Pucker at Big Dogs but much bigger rocks and deep ruts in the sand. Send some good buggy aura their way | |

| Wed 133 LCQ Matt Moore 4436 Silver Spring MD 7.29.56 So far it looks like the top 20 will be under 7:12 for LCQ. There is still a chance they can make it in due to racers not showing up or breaking their rigs and leaving spots open. | |

| Hammerking Founder, Dave Cole, stunned the audience by announcing that all 70 drivers could compete in the main event and that proceeds from the additional drivers would go directly towards the fight to keep the Johnson Valley OHV area open. The future of Johnson Valley has been uncertain since the US Marine Corps made a proposal to expand the 29 Palms Marine Base into most of the area known to OHV enthusiasts as "The Hammers." The 188,000 acre OHV area is the largest in the country and comprises half of the public lands used for OHV recreation throughout the entire state of California. “The correlation between land use and these racers we are including could not be more appropriate,” Cole commented. “These are honest, hardworking people who come to Johnson Valley throughout the year not only to race, but for recreation as well.”
Wish they would have decided this a few months ago, they would have a few more competitors including myself! | |
