Title: King of the Hammers
Post by: SteeevO on January 19, 2014, 06:53:13 PM: Is anyone heading out to koh this year? We'll be out there starting Tuesday Feb 4th.

You guys are welcome to camp with us. I will warn you though sometimes things get a little roudy around the campfire. But its all in good fun. I can post coordinates soon if need be.

Sent while mobile, typos likely.

By the time Friday night came around everyone was pretty beat. Although I did see a very large truck with "RR" on the side doors drive past camp with someone jogging alongside it using a light looking at suspension I believe. I would have jogged over to say hello but I had a rum in one hand and a nice cigar in the other and thought better of it.

I could probably go Tuesday morning and Stay the night... Would it be cool to bring my little girl for the day time stuff? I know that you said nights could be a little rowdy.

Post by: GreenGoon on February 03, 2015, 09:19:08 PM: Yeah, those rigs are awesome! Last year we watched some of the ultra4 qualifying. I just go for the day because the nights could be a little crazy for my daughter but she loves watching the buggys.

Thursday is the "every man challenge" the big boys will probably be prepping their rigs for Friday.
It'll be nice to see a variety of vehicles and check out the modified courses so I can play around on them another day.
