It is once again time to hit the California desert for the 2019 edition of the Ultra4 Racing PCI Race Radios Rampage at Ridgecrest. The last race of the 2019 Lasernut Western Series heads back to Ridgecrest OHV Area were drivers can expect a combination of open-desert sections and rock obstacles, very similar to Johnson Valley were King of the Hammers is raced.

This year Ultra4 teamed up with MORE and SNORE to created a combined race. The race last year was a huge hit for fans and racers alike bringing racing to a very popular off-road destination. This year’s event runs from September 13th to the 14th.

Temperatures are expected to be in the 100’s for race weekend pushing the vehicles racing even more. If you are heading out to spectate the race make sure you stay hydrated.
