Just picked up a prerunner tiregate for my 2nd spare. Got a great deal as well. Apparently, they have a garage sale area where they sell items with minor blemishes. This one had minor scratches and cost me $620 vs $850. I figure spray paint should fix any noticeable scratches.

I am working on the pre-run the course and as usual things get tweaked as we go..
Nv Guy is helping with layout. Looks to be the first stop will be Fernly as the meeting point and from there I know Austin, but between the two working on dirt roads that dont dead end..

Thats a great deal. Did you also get the bed stiffeners? The reason I ask is because I was looking into the Race Runner, I emailed them for the installation instructions to get an idea what I was getting myself into. They sent me the instructions with a recommendation that I also install the bed stiffeners. Don't know if this holds true for the Prerunner, but fyi.

I'm not sure but they said it would be set up and come with everything needed to work with the Raptor. I was considering the race runner or extended vt to add cargo room but I was up in the air. When I saw the deal I just went with the prerunner.

I am slowly getting a course down using the google maps and NV Guys is helping me plan it out. The course looks to be starting around Carson City Nevada and going over the mountains towards Fallon, and Fernly. Until I actually pre-run this area it is hard to tell. The roads I am looking at look like roads then turn to trails and crawl over the mountains and then back to high speed dirt roads... Of course it may go the other way and start in Fernly Fallon area and go back towards Carson City. It looks to be about a total of 125 to 175 miles of road trail running. Probably one night on top of the mountain to sleep and then head out again after breakfst... My pursuit trailer is comming along slowly looks better and better... pictures soon.... Thanks guys/gals for your patience...

Thanks for the update Ice. Looking forward to this one. Looking forward to seeing what the trailer ends up looking like.
