And I caught a kicker out there somewhere we thought compromised our driver-side front wheel, so my pit crew changed it. These wheels are bomb-proof tough, but I just didn\u2019t want to take a chance. We have done that before, split a wheel in half, and it ended up costing us several positions,\u201d said Jones. \u00a0Jones has had a goal to win at King of the Hammers for the last 10 years.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_6565\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"640\"]![\"\"](\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2023KOH_EMC_Healy-1024x683.jpg\")
