Thank You DAVE COLE and JEFF KNOLL for KOH 2011 - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

DCuzzz · 02-17-2011, 09:19 AM

I really don’t know how the two of you do it.

One night it really hit home how many unseen and unrealistic issues you guys have to deal with to put this race on. When I heard Jeff get a call on the radio that someone was looking for handicap parking at 10:00 pm, in a 60+ mph wind storm for the trade show that had been closed for hours it blew me away you had a dedicated parking place for them. UNREAL.

I hope you know for every 1 complaint there is a 1000+ people that truly appreciate your many hours of laborious work. If some dirty toilets are the only thing to complain about you have put on the PERFECT event.

Thank you DAVE and JEFF

Thank you Doug. you and your crew did an amazing job yourselves!

KacksterK5 · 02-17-2011, 09:40 AM

Thanks guys, Had a blast for the third year straight and hopefully will for many years to come.

One of the funny things at the Award Ceremony was when they called up Chris Bolger for a award.

Chris basically walked up and said, "Can I go, I have work to do?"

KRANKER · 02-17-2011, 09:50 AM

I would also like to say thank you on behalf of team 3430. You guys put on a amazing event. Thank You

Artec · 02-17-2011, 10:32 AM

Great job guys. Add to the list Chris Bolger, Roxy and Chris Cole. They all took care of us really well, made sure BLM got our permit done, answered our dumb questions, and didn't get too pissed when we had a booth packed full of customers well after closing time.

fuggy · 02-17-2011, 12:49 PM

Awesome Job to Dave/Jeff and Hammerking. Unbelievable how much you guys have accomplished in a few years. I can only imagine the effort you guy put forth to keep things running smoothly. I also really hope to see the KOH style races in JV for many years to come.

Mr.S · 02-17-2011, 12:58 PM

What an amazing week in JV. I can not start to tell you how much fun we had on the lake bed. Who's ideas was Outter Limits??? JK. Somebody had to say it.

J20 · 02-17-2011, 01:09 PM

Thanks, Dave and Jeff and the whole team for all your hard work. I am sure this year was about as stress as it can get. It must have been a huge relief when the track was clear, and the last tent came down. I am sure there was some issues but it seemed to go off pretty clean. I think it is a tribute to all of us who love the sport and the desert. It shows that large offroad events can be held in a responsible and safe way. Thanks for letting us be part of it.

A huge thanks to all of the Ultra 4 team for pulling this event off! This was my first trip west with the rig and we had a blast! We came in Sunday, and all of us were simply amazed at how smoothly things seemed to be running even as Hammertown grew and grew right before our eyes! To put some perspective to what happens there in less than a week, Hammertown turns into a town with a larger population than where I live, of 10000. It was increadable to get up on the hills and look down at the town.

All of the races ran as smoothly as possible and I was impressed with everyone being lined up and starting on time, in addition to the communication during the races.

I plan to be there again next year.

Hammer97 · 02-23-2011, 10:33 PM

Thanks Jeff and Dave. Hope to see you at an Ultra 4 race. Know this, I am not an OG13 but I have been to or participated in the race ever since. I will NEVER miss this. If its all we do all year in racing, KOH is it!!!!!
Nice work.
BTW get some help. You two bone heads do way to much work out there, hands on work at that. Hire someone, get a right hand guy as an operations manger and hire some dudes or better yet get a 4x4 group/club to sponsor cleanup or something. Your guys should not be on the back of a trailer full of trash on Sunday afternoon. Hell ya built Zanadoo... enjoy it!!!!!
I would volunteer but I got to race, Maybe after I wad up my car and develope a limp or speach impedament! I would do that but for now I gots ta race
