Winning two years in a row seems like the impossible. Not for Kyle Chaney, who secured his second win at this year\u2019s UTV race at King of the Hammers. Chaney started seventh in a field of one-hundred twenty-two starters.\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\nThe UTV\u2019s raced the same rock sections that the big Ultra4 superstars will race on this weekend. The smaller wheelbase still makes things challenging. for the normally nimble UTV\u2019s that seem like they can crawl up anything. Only twenty-seven finishers made it to the checkered flag.\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\nCan Am had a great day at the King of the Hammers UTV race. Their drivers which included Chaney finished in the top three on the podium. Hunter Miller finished second. Miller won the King of the UTV\u2019s in 2020. Paul Wolff from Texas took third place.\r\n\r\nI grew up racing in the woods, and you have to be very precise,\u201d said Chaney at the finish line. \u201cThe more technical the better.\u201d\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\nThe top twenty finishers transferred over to a $10,000 grudge match held on a 1.3-mile qualifying course. Brian Deegan, another Can-Am driver took home that big check. Deegan and his co-driver Terry Madden ran out of gas during the main race. Madden walked a mile to the nearest pit. The crew strapped a dump can to his back as he sprinted back to the disabled UTV, so they could finish the race.\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\nInterestingly enough, the top three finishers in the main race will also race in the 4400 class with the same Can-Am UTV\u2019s they raced today.\r\n\r\nImages courtesy of King of the Hammers","excerpt":"
