Nope, I didn't get to meet anyone. I literally got there for the first driver meeting, and got called down to Austin. Really disappointed that I didn't get to hang out and meet folks and get to do some runs.

Yep, that was me. I had to leave TRR on Thursday to go to Austin for work all of a sudden. But I live about 40 minutes from TRR hence why I was heading back. @TheButcher

That explains why a Raptor with a TRR sticker was headed that direction! Sorry you missed it. The rain kind of sucked, but it was great fun. Hopefully you can make Raptoberfest.

TRR was a blast. other than a bad MAF sensor from my stupid AirRaid falling off (again...) and one lost center cap off my Methods, truck worked like a champ.

spent about 4 hours cleaning it Sunday, and I will say, I ******* about the mud when I was there, but at least it mostly stayed outside the truck, unlike the blowing wind and sand last year that took forever to get out of the truck.

Just want to say thanks to everyone that attended. The pits were kept clean, everyone was super respectful of the land, no one got hurt, and other than a few broken alternators, the carnage was minimal. I am 3 for 3 on the last events when it comes to mud. Hopefully Raptoberfest will be better!

We raised somewhere around $10,000 for Race For The Wounded, I need to do the math, but I think that pushes the TRR charity fundraising close to $200K in 4 years.

Looking for a Harbor Freight race jack with skid. It was sitting near the swing set in the pits. A Raptor owner had to haul his truck out on a trailer late at night and forgot it. Apparently it sat there for a while, so I am assuming it got picked up by accident. Please let me know if you have it so I can get it back to it's rightful owner.

Took about an hour to get the big chunks off at the carwash, then brought it home to let the auto detail guys go at it. They started about 9:00, and it's noon now. I'd guess they have another couple hours left, but it's pretty much back to normal now. Quite a few "pin stripes" from the brush, but I think most will buff out.

We lost the inner fender liners on the first lap. Those were pretty worthless. Need to figure out a better solution for that. Oh, and fiberglass covers don't work well off road when you beat on it hard. Finally just removed it after all the latches broke and the struts bent.
