News...
For the first time, starting order for King of the Hammers main race will be determined by a qualifying race. More than 70 Last Chance Qualifier contestants will be competing for one of 20 spots remaining... while 90 pre-qualified racers will be competing for their starting order in the 2012 Griffin King of The Hammers. The qualifying races will take place Tuesday and Wednesday, February 7 & 8, on the 4Wheel Parts Qualifying course. Some of the qualifying races will be televised during the Ultra4 “Happy Hour”.
ECORS veterans BJ Allen, Sean Rose will both qualify on Wednesday. It also looks like the rumors are true and Robby Gordon will race KOH!
Robby Gordon won Stage 9 of Dakar 2012 yesterday but still trailed leader Stephane Peterhansel by 5'58” in the general standings. Co-driver Johnny Campbell said, "RG was matted at 205kph! Omg I was freaking out!!!" Gordon/Campbell are closing the gap in Stage 10 today.
