In 2019 and 2020, Ford's Bronco-R ran in the tough Baja 1000. The lessons learned in this backcountry off-road race were well-learned as Ford Performance took them and applied them to a new generation of off-road racing Broncos. Those lessons were learned quite well as Ford took three podiums in this past weekend's King of the Hammers off-road race.

The battle is on every time Ultra4 Racing hits the road, and this past weekend was no different as the organization behind King of the Hammers started their 2021 regional season out in Moab, Utah. Kicked off at the tail-end of this year s Easter Jeep Safari, great weather and over 100 racers, including big names like the Campbell and Gomez Brothers crews, Loren Healey and Vaughn Gittin Jr. of Team Fun-Haver, and other Nitto standouts like Cody Addington, Paul Horschel and Bailey Cole, made for an amazing weekend of wheel-to-wheel racing at the King Shocks Area BFE Beatdown!
The first event of the 2021 Ultra4 Western Series, the King Shocks Area BFE Beatdown, was held April 1st through the 3rd at Area BFE, a well-known, privately-owned property just south of Moab, Utah that offers 625 acres of off-road adventure. While Ultra4 raced on the property last September, this year s course took on some different obstacles for a 6-mile loop through sand washes, gnarly rocks and sharp 180s.
