| Team Garry Hall Enters XJ for King of the Hammers |
 Team Garry Hall has entered an XJ for the King of the Hammers race for 2008. The XJ labeled as Blue 52 is owned and will be driven by Richard "GoatMan" Gauthier. His co-pilot and navigator is Paul Sinclair.
KOH is the first race of its kind. The event will take place on February 22, 2008, and is a non-spectator event. The event will part rock race, and part desert race. Race teams will start at 30 second intervals from Means Dry Lake bed, and will navigate through the desert on a set race course to their first rock course. As of today, the official course has not been released, and is not going to be released until race week. What we do know is there will be approximately 50-60 miles of desert racing, and approximately 7 Johnson Valley trails (aka: Hammer Trails - Sledgehammer, Jackhammer, Wrecking Ball, etc) to make up the course.
More info about the XJ (#52) is posted at NAXJA.org

UPDATE!
Goatman and Paul have physically finished in 6th place but for actual position based on time, it's currently looking like 7th place.
Congratulations!!!
