    Raptor Sightings/Spotting (on the road or parked)

    I saw a HEAVILY modded Black Screw a week ago in Benbrook, TX. I don't know if he's a forum member. ADD front bumper with lime green skid plates, wide stance wheels, ADD chase rack/roll bar with 50" light, looked like King Shocks, Retrofit headlights. Any one local know the guy?

    Racing a Cummins?

    Many would be surprised at the power a diesel can make. We used to manufacture diesel performance parts and had 2 diesel powered prostock drag trucks and a diesel dragster. Back then it was the fastest diesel in the world. Ran high 7's in the 1/4 at 170mph. They made 1400 hp and about 2800 ft...

    35x12.50 20 General Grabbers $1300

    Work maybe a partial trade? I have 35X12.50 R18 General Red Letters. About 200 miles on them so basically brand new. I'm thinking I want to run 20's instead of 18's. I'm pretty local to you I think. If you are the one that had these on craigslist then I've talked to you before. I bought the...

    Successful Raptor Owners

    Did I or anyone say anything about success being measure by how much stuff you have? I was trying to be nice in my first response, you bitter ol' blow hard. It doesn't take authority to invite someone to leave, it's an "invitation"... You are the one to choose whether you go or stay... Your...

    Successful Raptor Owners

    Don't be bitter. Many of us find it interesting to learn what others do for a living and how they have achieved their success. Success is defined under many different opinions. It's fun to see what "toys" everyone has which defines their preference in interests. If you don't care to learn about...

    Raptor Sightings/Spotting (on the road or parked)

    Saw this ol girl in Vegas last weekend. I heard they were having a desert race from Vegas to Reno. There were several teams in town. This was set up for what I'd assume as the chase truck.

    Successful Raptor Owners

    You can assume that most Raptor owners have a pretty decent day gig and do pretty well for themselves financially. I want to start a thread where you all explain your daily job and what you do for a living. Also, post pictures of your most prized toys (Raptor included). Racecars, sportscars...

    Transmission: What the HP Limit

    Well it's a combination on a set stall torque converter, ceramic coated clutch packs, and line pressure. Of course billet input and output shafts. I don't know these specific transmissions that well so there may or may not be an intermediate shaft. Does anyone build a transmission controller...

    Transmission: What the HP Limit

    What is the horsepower limit on the factory transmission? Just how far can you take it before it self destructs? I have the ProCharged Hennessey 575 and they said the factory tranny is good to go with that set up. It's at the dealer now getting the SW headers installed, new tune to come when...

    Stupid Things People Say About Raptors

    Same here, I had a 3/4 ton diesel truck, lift, 14 inch wide wheels, the whole deal. People ask me, "why did you get rid of your badass truck for a Raptor?" I'm, so aggravated at hearing this over and over. The Raptor cost twice as much as the other truck too. I just don't understand why other...

    Testing of new Raptor caught

    Definitely not a new raptor. Just because it has super gay exhaust and unpainted fenders and bed doesn't mean anything except it looks like one wore out truck. SPY SHOTS!!!! not...

    TRR Fall Run Planning

    I definitely want to do this! I have been hoping another TRR would be scheduled this year since I didn't get to be a part of the last one. Also my buddies truck will be out of the body shop by then and he will want to come too. That deer he smoked was over $12,000 in damage...

    One Word... Deer!

    His wheels are the 20 inch Raceline Raptors. The tires are the normal Toyo M/T. He was running about 80 and had no time to even hit the brake. The deer was stuck in the grill for about 200 ft before the tire grabbed it and ripped it out.
