As we prepare for the Nitto National Championships in Las Vegas and 2013 season winds down, I wanted to share my plans for the 2014 season, specifically; season schedule, series purse, entry fee breakdown, and class additions. There are several changes in the coming year. I will try to make this brief and succinct. We had 221 (as of Hot Springs) different Ultra4 drivers this year. Only 24 of those drivers (16 West/8 East) competed in all of the region’s events. We averaged 29 racers…

RCV axles was the sponsor of the event sponsoring both the shootout and the ULTRA4 race held earlier in the day. Spectators got quite a show as ULTRA4s took on Rock Bouncers in a head to head competition on a trail picked by Superlift management to be equally fair to both styles of vehicles. After 2 rounds of hill climbs, the driver’s scores were averaged, and the overall winner was 2…

Going into the event, there was much speculation as to who would be declared this year’s King of The Valleys: Would it be a returning driver such as last year’s winner, Italian Pier Acerni, or perhaps a local racer familiar with the terrain such as UK’s Jim Marsden, or could it possibly be the American ULTRA4 driver on his first trip overseas, Levi Shirley? Ultimately, after…

Over the years, he’s been one of the most consistent top three finishers at the Griffin King of The Hammers Presented by Nitto Tire. However, despite all of his podium finishes, a first place trophy had proved elusive to Mooneyham; that is until last weekend’s American Rocksports Challenge held at Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele, UT where Mooneyham crushed the competition and claimed first place finishing nearly 45 seconds ahead of Shannon Campbell.…
