Video: The most brutal off-road racing

12th March 2021

There’s off-roading, and then there’s this. Graduate from the little leagues and join Monster Energy on the sidelines of one of motorsport’s most extreme competitions.

Think Dakar, but less distance and more extreme driving, with the likes of huge jumps, massive boulder fields, and post-race partying of epic proportions.

In just seven minutes, experience the very best the King of the Hammers Week had to offer over the 28th January to 6th February 2021. Unfolding in California’s vast and barren Johnson Valley, the event pitted motorcycles, buggies and 4x4s against time and the terrain in the ultimate race to be crowned King of Hammer.

Turn up the volume and tune in – if you dare. For this video may make you want to drop everything and dive into the desert in a dune buggy…
