This run will be a two day event leaving early Saturday and returning Sunday afternoon. We’ll stage equipment Saturday, June 4th, 2011 at 9:00 am in Barstow, Ca and be hitting the trail by 10:00 am sharp. Outlaw Raptor will e-mail you the meeting location (so we don't get any non supporters following us). Outlaw Raptor will provide a chase support truck with a 25ft flat bed trailer and spare parts that will pace alongside the 15 freeway. We’ll be making our way through some of California's most challenging desert terrain. This will give most of the drivers a new found respect for how well the Ford Raptor is built. The 240 mile course will consist of several different types of terrain ranging from hard packed trails (easily conquered in 2wd) to tire flatting rocked out billy goat trails only done in 4wd. You'll need to bring your "A" game on this run as you'll be hitting speed in excess of 80 mph off road then rock crawling down the side of a mountain at 5 mph. The run should take about 5 hours to complete with one gas stop along the way (keep in mind we are in the desert and anything could happen!). After battling the California deserts and dealing with challenges along the run we’ll end up in Las Vegas, NV. Upon arrival in Las Vegas, we will check into the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and rest up for the nights festivities. At 8:00 pm we will have a catered dinner that is included in the package. An Awards Ceremony for 3 categories (Most Challenged Driver, Close Call, & Top Raptor) will be voted on by you. Following the award ceremony, you can choose to retreat to your room, meet with awaiting friends/family or go out on the town with the others.
REMEMBER! Don’t have too much fun in Vegas due to leaving at 8 am sharp and will return on a different trail home Don’t be left behind!!!

Emergency contact info
Money (hotel, drinks, gas, etc)
Water (for in the truck on the trail)

Read this !!!!!
Remember this is a group event. Families and kids are welcome on the run. There is no drinking of alcohol or drug use of any type permitted on the trail. If you get out of hand, you will be asked to leave or be eaten by your fellow Raptors and your truck will be used for spare parts! So please, keep it clean.
So how do you get involved ?
We are limited to only 10 raptors on the trail. Outlaw Raptor will also have 2 additional Raptors on the trail that will carry the Outlaw Raptor staff, production guy, tools and parts. So that puts a total of 12 raptors on the same trail. The logistics will be a challenge all in itself!
Dust: If there is little to no wind the dust will linger and distort vision. Stay alert, and off the tail of the Raptor ahead of you. It is advised that you drive at a pace that you feel comfortable with.
Time: This trail is awesome and with 10 Raptors we will make good time. Any more and we will run in to time delays.
Different driving abilities: With 10 Raptors we will be able to help out those new to offroad driving so the pace will slowly increase as drivers feel more comfortable.
WE ARE 100% BOOKED FOR THE RUN ON THE 4th and 5th OF JUNE. We are now booking for the run on July 23rd and 24th. If you want to reserve your spot feel free to call Nate at the shop 949-581-5001. We have received a huge response so we are taking first come first served. P.S I'll be out of the office till next week due to having a baby this Friday. I'll get you e mail and respond when I can.
