Ford Performance have proven time and time again that they can take any vehicle and make it the absolute best of the road, track, and off-road. And, once again, the Ford Bronco took a clean 1-2-3 finish at the recent King of the Hammers off-road competition in the Ultra4 4600 Stock Class. Oh, by the way, they did the exact same thing at the same race in the same class last year. So, two years in a row, Bronco absolutely dominated.
You may be asking at this point, what is the King of the Hammers? To put it simply, it’s an off-road race that’s held every year that puts vehicles through both high-speed desert racing and intense rock crawling. This year was the 18th running of the event, and it obviously didn’t disappoint.
Don’t Let Me Down HOSS
Ford Performance runs the Bronco in the 4600 class, which means it’s a stock, road-legal vehicle. Each Bronco entered into the race starts life the same way as any other 2-door model being made in Ford’s Michigan Assembly Plant. They use the 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 that makes 330 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque and the High-Performance Off-Road Stability Suspension, or HOSS as Ford calls it.
When asked why they bring the Bronco to the King of the Hammers race, Ford Performance Motorsports’ global director, Mark Rushbrook, said, “Racing and off-road competition like King of the Hammers lead to better products, like Bronco and Bronco Raptor. The stock class Every Man Bronco 4600s continue to showcase the development of new technologies, and these learnings can help us improve the vehicles our customers drive every day.”
