The way I understand the classes KOH (King of the Hammers) is just one event or class of Ultra4. KOH is the unlimited class for the most radical rigs.
Nothing found as to if all classes will be involved in the SF event.

King of the hammers is a specific event in California. It’s a place called the hammers and it’s a rock crawling race. This is an event in the ultra4 series. Kinda like score is a series.
Ultra4 is usually buggies built to not break doing anything(insane not right in the head types of terrain to the normal person). I think it’s more fun to watch them than score style races. They typically make the courses pretty crazy and the racers just go. They’ll keep driving until the car won’t go anymore.

Is the winner basically the last vehicle running?

KOH is the Big race of the year for that class, they just do it first instead of last like the B1k in Score.

Just like SCORE. Winner and finisher has elapsed best time wins. These racers have a similar non finishing rate as most off road races.
