Saturday’s B2 vs. B3 Grudge Match as part of the King of the Hammers Desert Invitational attempted to answer one question: which is faster, a Class 10 car or a UTV? At least for now, we’ve got a definitive answer to that question.
Wheeler Morgan topped Saturday’s showdown between the two classes, the first time any divisions other than T1 unlimited trucks ran as part of the Desert Invitational, by completing five laps of the course in 6:16:09.627. Of the seven entries that finished every lap, Class 10 entries made for five, and locked out the entire top five with drivers Jeremy Davis, Brent Fox, Blaine Conrad, and Chase Warren.
Kyle Chaney and Phil Blurton were the only two UTV racers to finish all five laps, coming home sixth and seventh overall. Kaden Wells, Travis Zollinger, and Dean Wheeler completed the overall top 10 at four laps apiece. Morgan and Chaney would take home $10,000 apiece for their class wins, but Morgan would claim the $50,000 bonus for winning overall.
The B2 vs. B3 Grudge Match was joined on Saturday by qualifying for all three classes racing Sunday: the T1 unlimited trucks, T2 spec trucks, and B1 division for Class 1 and Ultra4 entries. Defending Desert Invitational winner Bryce Menzies was best of the group at 6:26.949, more than 10 seconds faster than any other driver and almost 23 seconds faster than Kyle Jergensen in the nearest T1 entry. Cody Parkhouse was second fastest overall and topped the B1 division, while Pierce Herbst’s T2 entry ensured that at least one team from every division would crack the top six.
Finally, Blake Wilkey topped Saturday night’s Class 11 Showdown, taking home a $20,000 bonus of his own after holding off a hard-charging Bryan Croft. 16 Class 11 entries did battle over 25 grueling laps on the short course.
