Best in the Desert 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor Race Truck

So they needed to have made at least 4000 in the past 36 months so I guess they're relying on us gen1 guys to even be able to race.

All I have to say when you Gen 2 owners upgrade your shocks send those POS 3.0 shocks to me. I'm sure they'll work on my Mall Crawler.

Worth it just to see the Robby video.

People may hate him, but I love watching him run!

I've always been a Robby fan since his early Parker days. Just wished he'd go back to Ford. You could always hear Robby coming in his 66 Ford back then. Everyone was racing but then there was Robby. All out, all the time. Might be his downfall but it's just Robby.

He's in it to win it 100%, I respect that.

No doubt there! If his machine holds together, he's tough to beat.

He's always going 100 mph even when he's not racing. One year it's me and him pushing his truck up to tech inspection and then all of a sudden
he's off doing something else and I'm stuck pushing his 66 to the line. Good times...

Having raced 7s for a year, I can tell you first hand that there is NOTHING stock about a "stock" class. This is just marketing for the average Joe, who knows nothing about racing, sees an ad in a magazine or commercial on TV saying "a stock Ford Raptor just won the Parker 250/Mint 400/Baja 1000/etc". When in all reality, it won it's class, that was made specifically for this truck, with no other entries. It's all smoke and mirrors.

I chased at the Baja 1000 for Team Oskosh a few years ago. They were trying to sell their military vehicle to replace the Hummer. Score created a class for them to run in, one of the two trucks finished the race, and they marketed it as the Oskosh truck conquering the Baja 1000.

It's all smoke and mirrors when it comes to stock.

With that said, I'm sure Foutz did a great job on the truck, he does very good work. But stock... please!

From Foutz's Facebook page.

hey that doesn't look that much "lifted " then the stock one maybe softer spring to give it better squish?? hey I still dig that they are out running these races!!! no one else has anything close that us poor people can buy
