- · Slight tweak to the name… It is officially the 2013 Griffin King of the Hammers presented by Nitto Tire
- · While we are mentioning new marketing partners, I hope you all like Red Bull, stay tuned for more information on this development
- · We will have a kids play zone (bouncy house and such) in Hammertown
- · Bring team and sponsor stickers to registration, we will be hosting an ‘Arts and Craft’ day in the main tent where kids and adults alike can make signs supporting their favorite teams. We will be providing the poster boards and markers, they can add your stickers. Something fun and will add to the crowd experience.
- · I don’t have a contract signed yet, but we should have a dyno in town. It will be for entertainment purposes (think $50 a pull with your trail, tow, or race rig…prizes at the end of the week). We will also be working with an Engine Tuner to be able to provide support for the racers.
- · Motorcycles to Sunday…EMC to Thursday
- · Qualifying for Ultra4 and LCQ on Tuesday and Wednesday… 100% live coverage starting and ending in Hammertown (Sorry EMC and UTV, I couldn’t work a course and schedule to get everyone qualifying)

UTV entry list as of 5 pm yesterday:
I don't think it will happen, but if Dave actually does cap Thursday entries at 100, some people are not going to be able to race.
I know it has changed since then by at least one person, maybe 4. Add in the 54 people already paid for the EMC race, that leaves sixteen to eighteen spots left out of the 100. If you guys want to race, get your entries paid for ASAP!

I have to say I am happy about the UTV's going off after the EMC. This will add another level of action for the fans, it may get some exposure for the fast UTV's and maybe quiet some of the people that say UTV's don't belong. Many more fans will be onsite to watch the race.

Plus, it'll give the UTV's something winch off when they need it.
