Texas Raptor Run April 13-15

just a thought next time have a recommended speed at the tough spots for stock raptors than the amateurs could hit it at speed and not worry too much about difficulty I know 50+ trucks running it will change the course of the track but it would still give an idea. I've jumped mine and you take it at 50 nothing 52 you might jump nicely 60 you crap your pants but still ok any thing faster you might be in trouble just a thought I was not their so maybe it was all elementary looked like fun

That's a good idea. There was tons of gotchas and really steep creek crossings that you could catch your tow hooks and skid plate on..lots of the jumps didn't have good landings and you could see where people took it too fast and landing on the skidplate

this just made me think of some thing you know how they do that GPS treasure hunt it would be fun to map out spots that are good jumps for raptors lol the treasure is the jump I have a few right in the area be a rating system so people don't drive 200 miles to hit a dog ****.

Even though the lowrance baja gps worked great. I had the course map from Trey. And on the parade lap I made notes and waypoints to mark jumps, yellow double downs, ect... It really helped.. I suggest it for everyone next year..

Wow, that's all I can say. I'v never seen so many Raptors in one spot, so many very nice friendly people from all over the country in one place. Smiles everywhere. You guys are first class A #1 cool folks in my book. Can't wait til the vidio comes out. I hope everyone had a great time at the Ranch. I did. Ya'll come back soon. Hope Trey and Chris can put another Run together for you.

Haha yea Greg hit that last one like a champ we were all standing there and heard him mash the pedal and then te stage 3 kit hit it was insane. I did the same thing as you Greg ran treys map and just marked the bad an good spots that lowrance gps is awesome. Had a blast can't wait til the next one I had no issues at all and the drive home was smooth too

Well I got a few hours of video to edit. Luckily I downloaded it after every lap, because today my Gopro fell off on course. Sucks but oh well.

When cleaning the raptor today, I took a look at the air filter (stock) It was wet and really dirty. Truck has less than 2k miles on it. So, you guys may want to give it a look and replace. some muddy water in the bottom of it as well.
