Forecast isn't so bad for tomorrow evening. 90 at 2100 and dropping quickly to 80 degrees. Little wind.

Hope some other folks are considering it.

Thanks to SVTDon for coordinating.

I'm damn interested, however not a raptor (do have every RPG part they have for the 2013 f150 fx4 slapped on and then some) and don't have any aftermarket lighting which deceives the purpose of a night run.....not sure what the trail will be like but let me know if not too crazy and I'd be up for it. I'm in Rancho Cucamonga so not too far

Just hitting the trails to where ever it takes us. Think there's one or two with stock lighting to. Might not be able to go as fast as you want because of the lighting but you still got light to see. Up to ya bud, would think you would be fine.

Trails pretty challenging? I've seen some of the videos flash gordon has put out on YouTube with the night raptor expeditions, led by the Outlaw Raptor and honestly wouldn't want to hold you guys up because I'm not prepared.

Although, I am pretty balsy. Here's my truck a couple weeks ago at the Trona Pinnacles in Death Valley

Lol. Barstow is worse with whoops. Guess it depends on where ya go to be honest. You got 4x4? Some high speed trails some decent speed more of a slower. I found some good trails last time deep out in ocotillo but had to turn around because it was getting late and road was getting narrow. Would like to head down that and find some new stuff. There's two raptors with stock suspension. With a stock raptor you can throw a lot at it and you would be surprised. What do you have on your truck

2013 F150 FX4 (4X4)
RPG UCA
2.5 Fox Coilovers up front
RPG Tie Rods
RPG Frame and bump stop kit
2.0 Raptor Fox rear shocks
LGE-CTS rear upper shock bracket brace
Raptor leaf springs
35" Bf Goodrich A/T's
17"American Racing method look alike wheels

Think I should be fine just don't know your guys' level of off road experience and don't want to hold anybody back due to lack of aftermarket lighting and experience


Update: F-it, think I'm just gonna take the leap and meet y'all out there.

Looking on google maps and is the meeting place near Chotta st or Split Mountain rd?
