Open Road

Just got back from Raptor Assault. It’s a full one day program that has you rock crawling, switchback driving, Baja racing and jumping their trucks. This was my second time doing this and they improved the program significantly. The program is provided by Ford Performance Racing School and free to owners of a new Raptor. All Ford Performance vehicles come with a “racing” class opportunity. If you have the opportunity to go to one, take it. Ford doesn’t mess around with this program, you legit beat on their vehicles and have a blast doing it. My vehicle had just under 11k miles and felt as solid as my new Raptor. I asked the instructor how many classes 11k miles would cover and he thought for a bit and said he thinks around 200 classes. For my truck, that would have been a minimum of 800 jumps. It had rained the night before, so our trucks started clean and changed colors to mud rather quickly.

If there was ever a case to be made for headlight washers, that's it! Looks like a lot of fun!

I’m jealous, always wanted to do Raptor Assault but never made it work yet. Maybe when I get the next one!

Thanks for the cool pics.

What kind of speeds were you carrying through those jumps where you're airborne? Looks like loads of fun!

Very cool!!!

I paid off my Raptor last month.

Just got this email. Ford marketing doesn't wait long...

Time for some mods then, cough cough
