The Ultra4 Car | King of the Hammers: Origins | Episode 2

One of the most unique purpose-built vehicles in the world, the Ultra4 car came to be with humble beginnings, and has evolved into a formidable off road machine in a few short years. The cars drive the research and development in the off road industry, providing the ultimate test bed for product design, and survivability. Tested, and proven, at the King of the Hammers race in California, what some consider to be the hardest single day off road race on the planet.

Better than anything on televison, reminds of a high quality history channel piece. Even better! just amazing work in the editing and naration. Look forward to more!

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

Really appreciate this praise. Thank you. Lots of work to make this

[@TheDannymarine90]

"Take all your money, light it on fire, and put big tires on it" lol dont forget to light the tires on fire too. So true.

[@karlgilbert8255]

people thought rock bouncers were the end-all 4x4. watch a few ultra-4 races & you will lose your minds. awesome stuff boys!

[@wildhorses4x4]

I'm speechless...the quality of these videos is THROUGH THE ROOF! WOW!!! Amazing job guys!

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

really appreciate the love!

[@zublacus]

Will has captured the history of this grassroots event perfectly. Now it won't be lost...

[@scalebuildersguild]

Absolutely brilliant filming and editing. THANK YOU!

[@kregadeth5562]

Woah scb! You’re into all the same things im into! This is so great!

[@EpicSwedishFika]

I agree! We scalebuilders need this.

[@Z45HR4]

I don't know how many times I've watched this video. Probably too many times. Still gives me goose bumps when they introduce the Ultra4 car and turn up the music. Fantastic video.

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

Thank you! At KOH 2019 as we speak!

[@Z45HR4]

@@HeavyMetalConcepts Nice! Wish I could be there. Hopefully I'll be able to make it to 2020.

[@tgsubie]

Its my dream to just attend an event let alone to race. What a beautiful and amazing world Ultra4 is.

[@richardgauthier6143]

Great work Will! Really captures the spirit and what goes into racing Ultra4. there is nothing like King of the Hammers. 100k plus spectators and 700 plus race teams.....truely amazing.

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

thanks Richard, and also for your photo contributions that were used in the beginning of the new episode!

[@ScoobaSteve451]

I am really diggin' the "Origins" series.

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

Stoked to hear it

[@GritForceEnduro]

any more coming?

[@closedaccount902]

Another EXCEPTIONAL video that further solidifies my NEED to get it done..! Well done, VERY well done..!

[@kevinjones2208]

Such an awesome series of videos!!! Totally Cinematic and super professional. Please keep them coming!!!

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

Great praise, thank you so much!

[@headfirst6227]

THIS is why I work sooo hard at secondary and passive income. Nothing else on earth could possibly match the satisfaction of Ultra 4.

[@UncleManuel]

Damn, the R/C toy cars are getting more and more detailed these days... ^_^

[@datadrivenmqb]

Stumbled on these videos since I recently got the bug to get back into off-roading after being into road course stuff for the past 6 years. Built a Jeep on tons and 40s back when KOH had just taken off circa 2009... Time to start building a 4400 car.

[@KC-bi3nd]

People: Why do you want to be an engineer so badly? Me: Have you heard of KOH or Ultra4?

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

"No? watch this video!"

[@mattpizza228]

lol same

[@Poindogindustries]

This might be one of my favorite videos ever. So well done.

[@daveh9415]

Brilliant editing and filming guys, superb. Keep up the good work.

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

Thank you! Put a bunch of work into this one.

[@daveh9415]

You can tell, the scene transitions, music etc.. all superbly edited. A ton of work.

[@edglass2765]

I think a certain Flying Shopping Cart should be included in the Origins series. That balls out-send it attitude is what made KOH great. It aint all about the parts they run... sometimes you just gotta side surf it a little bit and let it eat!

[@jumpstartrc1571]

sweet found this vid and hooked on thes episodes

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

Glad to hear it!

[@HammerForm]

Absolutely beautiful. Stunning videography, and inspiring machines. This is why all my time and money has been going into the shop. Well done gentlemen.

[@OffRoadExtremeFilms]

thank you!

[@OffRoadExtremeFilms]

you are AWESOME CREW...thanks to share

[@nasilemak868]

Porn*

[@DiondenBraber]

Perfection once again!! Great great stuff! Apart from the video one thing bugs me, they build expensive cars with the best stuff there is, but put on a slow and incapable winch, no free-spool, no large drums, no speed. so much to win at that area.

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

Warn may not be as fast as some European counterparts, but they make a great product that excels in many other ways...and it is pretty fast for over here if we are speaking relatively :)

[@pilotoymaquina4280]

Incredible video production!! way to go

[@ThanosJK]

Excellent series so far!

thanks Tim!

[@team4moffroad]

Absolutely love it! Well done again HeavyMetalConcepts. Do you already know how many Episodes the whole series will have?

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

We are gauging if there is an appetite for a 3rd, would not be against making more. Thanks for the props!

[@team4moffroad]

I am ready for it :-) Could anybody say no to this kind of video making quality? :D

[@apuuvah]

I wonder what Tim Cameron did with the IFS rock bouncer he built. It couldn't take the beating, but could it be Ultra4...

[@mark31383]

I would love to run this, but it looks like you would need sponsors to do something like this.

[@tree18is]

Should I build a strait axle Cummins or I beams or TTB axles. Opinions I got my rear end ready just deciding on the front end

40" is street legal if less than 1/2 the width of tires showing no fender cover, but racing 42" go crazy the rage NOW.trailer queens.

Why wasn't this very short piece just added on to part 1?

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

Does that bother you?

[@TheJoeyPeacock]

At 6:45 into the video, what brand/model are those tires? Thanks!

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

they are Maxxis Trepadors

[@Tougeboys]

Big up

[@georgefales7964]

If a guys won Dakar he will do great at KOH if his equipment holds up

[@manuellopez2559]

The guy that commentates, also commentates another series called Launch Control

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

very similar sound, but different guy!

[@jamesmerkel9442]

100thusand dollars is definitely a pro vs amateur dividing line if not class of rig.

[@alexanderhrachowina1546]

supernice edit, great sport, but the comparison with Dakar was pretty unnecessary.. Both are great races but come on, the Dakar is a different beast, way longer and way more dangerous.. But that's not the point, just two fascinating races/sports that both do not even need to be compared..

[@demerica1]

how we supposed to hear them talk clearly when the music is so damn loud.

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

200,000 other people seem to have no problem.

[@demerica1]

or maybe people dont leave critical feedback for fear of it being squashed.

[@HeavyMetalConcepts]

@@demerica1 you must be right

[@danoiddano6891]

Yaaaa 👍😋

[@apuuvah]

Rock bouncer... only lighter and faster and with independent suspension. Dunno bout Ultra4 rear steering. And can't take the beating rock bouncers can. Think I'ma go with Ultra4 tho...

[@porkyswelding]

cool vid but i had to mute it

Sorry that's all you took away from it :/

[@lubeslubbers8004]

A commercial for what? Seems like a pretty good breakdown of the vehicles involved in the sport for those that aren't a part of it and don't already know...
