2010 Griffin King of the Hammers Last Chance Qualifier Results
JOHNSON VALLEY, CA, FEBRUARY 5, 2010: The winner of the 2010 4 Wheel Parts Last Chance Qualifier is Ritchie Keller with a time of 12:09. Keller will start in the 5th position in the 2010 Griffin King of the Hammers main race.
The racing action was intense for these Last Chance Qualifiers. Tuesday, 17 cars left the line, and 15 received a time. Larry Gipson and Jonathon Terhune both DNF’d and packed up to head home. The fast time of the day was Ritchie Keller with 12minutes 9 seconds. The mid-pack group was around 20 minutes to complete the very difficult 6 mile course.
The racing action continued on Wednesday, but after a complete night of rain. The course was now muddy and the rocks were slippery which made for much more intense racing action. There were six DNF’s on todays course, with most of them being mechanical challenges that drivers had been plagued with for the last few days.
The top 21 will transfer into the main race. There may be additional transfers depending on main race drop outs.
