Rick, I am going call you out on this you were running in unlimited class.. One Rpg truck did hit the cattle gate. The other was a 2010 that sheared the splines off the axle (there is a TSB about heat treatment on earily 2010).. The bent frames that did occur were caused by the g outs and jumps NOT from trying keeping up with you.

-Greg

Ok..I exaggerated. It was early and I was still drunk :p My buddy Mike did start bending his frame and he was keeping up with me until we hit the rocky and technical stuff. He installed Outlaw Raptors bump stop kit to keep from bending his frame further. Don't post when drunk :p I do not even remember making that post. Combination of the muscle relaxers and alcohol. When I took out my oil cooler I took a pretty big hit and messed up my neck.

I thought I heard that someone ran out of gas ? Ha Ha.
Seem like so many people are having a blast

That axle was changed before midnight I think. Busy shop:peace:

Yes, I did run out of fuel. Rookie mistake. Figured 1/3 of a tank was enough for a lap but I forgot that since my gas filler had been moved I have been having issues with it. Gotta keep it full and not think about it after that.

I am def running mine next time!

Thanks for all the folks that I got to chat with and Ryan for taking me down the course.

It was so awesome to see 'why' I paid $40k+ for my truck! The Raptor is an amazing vehicle.

I'll tell him... He isn't on here very much but we are putting the videos together between us so stay tune.... Might be next week but it should be pretty good.

I wonder how many photos we got on the midnight run. That was pretty cool. Those hill climbs were pretty steep, and going down the hill descent worked nice.

Anyone know where we can find the photos they took?

And didn't they say they were going to make a movie type thing for us? Or did I dream that??
