Axial RECON Ultra 4 G6 at King of the Hammers

[Erin]

Id love to see a longer stage for the main event but completely understand its a long week for you guys.

A long trail run after the event with a camp out would be great, as it was tough during the week to meetup with people.

Either way, I plan on being there again for sure.

[gottorque]

I (and hopefully the rest of Team MRB) will be there.
One minor thing I noticed was the course seemed rather confined and in certain spots would get pretty backed up with rigs trying to clear an obstacle. Maby try keeping the same number of gates but expanding the course a bit to include some flat out desert running like the real KOH. I know that that may favor the brushless guys but its something that can be played with.

My vote is in for the trail run too. When im not G6in, i take it easy, finding new spots and just enjoying nature and friends with my scaler. Thats what its all about

DMC Bonus Question


This is my first KOH. I have followed the race online and even heckled as if I was at the little sluice and like the racers in the Chocolate Thunder grid lock last year, could read was I was typing. I was so stoked to be part of the KOH experience, even if it was in a virtual sense.

If this is your first KOH, What are you looking forward to the most and why?

If this is not your first KOH, describe your past experiences and what you liked most about the race.


Thank you, G6'ers for starting your Axial RECON Ultra4 G6 adventure, early.

God Speed to Hammertown and stop by and see the Axial Crew and the G-Crew at the Axial Booth on 1 Axial Ave Hammertown, CA.

Bring your Axial based G-Rides for some cool Bonus Time Festivities. This is not mandatory, but highly recommended!

I am "Parker" and I will see you getting your scaler fix in the Axial RECON Ultra4 G6!

Answer: this is my first 1:1 KOH and first G6. Looking forward to watching some insane horse power doing 100+ mph through the desert and seeing those massive shocks climbing over rocks like they are pebbles! Oh and running a G6 hoping the JK makes it to the end of Parker's master mind course

Gottourque is no stranger when it comes to the details. This is why his G-Ride does so well. Meticulous line choice and a master skill in driving the line he chooses. His Wraith attrition is not great. In fact, I think it's non existent???

You know what I am going to say...."Be careful what you ask for". Last year, was just the introduction. This year might be called the "destruction".

Awesome. To date, the sickest first Gen Toyota on a G6 stage. There's been a lot of sick first gen's, including Lil' Lexus, but your's, sir, is next level.

Bring lots of underwear. Last year was my first time and you will shat yourself with all the RAW Horsepower and just sheer AWESOMENESS that makes up KOH.

"Be careful what you ask for". So true.

No Worries and I should be able to help with the confusion just as soon as my eyes stop wigging out....I think I know how Vampires hypnotize their prey.

The event date in Saturday, Feb 8th at Noon.

If you would like an event shirt and the commemorative credential badge, you must pre-register before January 27th.

You can still pre-register after January 27th & I would encourage everyone to do so or you can register in person at KOH all week long until Saturday Noon.

As far as the scale items are concerned, it's up to you what they are. What is listed is only examples. There are enough scale items on any Axial scx10 RTR to meet the 5 item minimum.

The medieval items are not mandatory, but highly recommended. It's up to you what you want to do, if anything at all.

I hope this helps, if not, we will try again!

[hlrider130]

Perfect. Clears it up. Any word on the event friday night?

[TREE]

Two more weeks BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
