I'm curious how your first time could have been in 2004 when the first official KOH was in 2008. I have a lot of pictures and memories, because I built one of the race cars and chased it all day that year. Yeah, it was a lot different back then, but what it is today is exactly what everyone who went off the line back in the OG days hoped it would become. Most of the racers back then came from competition rockcrawling which had been struggling to get a fan following and sponsor support for years.....and still is.@MadMan4BamaNATL I know, last time I was there was 2019ish. That was when I said I'm done. This year tv coverage has kind of sucked me in.
Probably more organized now, but my first time around 2004ish was way way way better.
There still are a lot of backyard garage racers there with their families, and they are out there racing today. I sponsor one of the 4600 teams that is running 2 XJ's and they are the absolute definition of grassroots. They have also been quite successful over the years.
