Hummer Guy

The Showdown in the Desert is normally a grueling 89 one-mile laps in the Las Vegas desert, but torrential downpours forced race officials to adopt a “Grand Prix” style finish whereby every classes’ last lap would occur once the first overall finisher crossed the finish line. It forced all the teams to race each lap as though it were their last — and it paid off for Team Hummer. Rod Hall (Driver and Owner of Team Hummer) brought the Team HUMMER H3 across the finish line first in its class, after 5:16:14 hours of intense racing and nearly 45-minutes faster than the nearest mini-stock SUV competitor. Hall’s victory in the 178-mile race marked the 15th consecutive race in which the team has placed a HUMMER on the podium.
