Can-Am is looking to repeat its UTV Hammers Championship victory.

Can-Am is executing a full-court press on King of the Hammers, which kicks off this weekend in Johnson Valley, California. After finishing first and second in the UTV Hammers Championship last year with Kyle Chaney and Phil Blurton, Can-Am has its own big shoes to fill. Chaney finished first in his Can-Am Maverick R last year in the championship, followed by Blurton in a race-prepared Maverick X3.

Can-Am is the official UTV partner of King of the Hammers, so it’s no big shock that it is throwing everything it can at the event. Can-Am drivers will compete in the King of the Hammers Desert Challenge this weekend, the UTV Hammers Championship February 6, and the Race of Kings 4400 Unlimited race February 8.

In addition to the races, Can-Am will have a booth right next to the stage and firepit in Hammertown, and a Maverick demo area just outside the main gate, and a Defender demo area in Hammertown itself. If you’re shopping for a rig and you need to try before you buy, there’s one more excuse to head to KOH this year.

The driver lineup this year reads like an off-roading all-star team, and includes Dustin Jones, who won the Silver State 300 overall in 2023 in a Maverick R, returning Dakar Rally rookie Hunter Miller and his brother Cody Miller, Phil Blurton, Kyle Chaney, Brian Deegan, and Rodrigo Ampudia, to name a few.
