Words cannot even describe how much fun we had off-roading with Vaughn Gittin Jr. just before Formula Drift Las Vegas. A nice public park behind the Air Force Base and the LVMS CORR truck course gave us every opportunity to test and enjoy this SVT Raptor. It was quite a treat to have Vaughn Gittin Jr. manhandle the completely stock Ford truck for hours off-road and then hand it back to us so we can take it to the hotel. It was quite impressive and we have a few hundred photos packed in a gallery of our day out in the dirt.

That's great and this pic is pretty damn funny! (We've all been there one time or another)

This location should look familiar to those of you/us who were in Vegas for the Raptor Roundup...

Yep, this is where the KC headlight cover flew off...

Good pics (thanks for posting the link). Always good to be sitting at the computer getting reminded of why the Raptor is soooo much fun!

That launch is incredible. I'd never heard of that guy, but I was just showing it to my brother and he recognized him. Says he is one of the best American drift racers and he drives a Ford Mustang for Falken tires.

I'm willing to bet from those shots that he's now a fan of the Raptor.

Here's a vid I found of him putting his Mustang sideways....
