Looks like an awesome trip fellas. As mentioned in the pre-run thread, the duneside camping is pretty sweet. The mosquito shots, very cool :waytogo:

Thank you sir! It is indeed...wish we had more time to hang out there.

I only wish i lived close enough to participate.

Let us know if you ever want to make a trip out. We had a guy from Washington drive out and a guy ship his truck from Georgia for the run.

Chicago is a long way from Cali compared to Washington. I'll make it out for one run

If you do, make it a Baja expedition... Having run the route now, we're confident that this will be one of the best runs of every owners experiences!

Compared to what we have in Illinois (nothing, dirt roads are hard to find) the Carson run looks sweet. Labraptor and I will have to sign up for the next Baja, it was close this time just couldn't get the logistics of getting trucks out there. Maybe we will have to ship a truck and run it together on one truck

Not for the price you're charging. I get that it's memorable and you guys put in a lot of your time pre running the course. But I could save $2k and off road in California.

With that said, I wish I had an extra $2k laying around so I can go on the run

So you think $2000 is too much for a fully Prerun mapped course, two chase trucks, mechanics, spare parts, dinner every night, rooms, a run in another country and everything else we provide? Maybe you should just stay in CA and do your own thing then. This run is not for you.

I will semi admit 2k is a lot.

But for all that is involved, and its pure distance from me, and the support given.

I think its reasonable. Especially planned routes through baja. if it wasn't for work schedules, id be going this fall

Hit up Geoff Falzone over at Giant Motorsports, he does Mexico runs similar to Raptor Expeditions but your not gonna pay a Raptor tax. If I remember right his price is $500, only down side is that your not going to have the same size support at RE has

I look forward to the day when I'm finally able to turn key on my very own Raptor. As a prospective buyer seeing all the great pictures from the Raptor Expeditions runs and all the awesome comments in the post run reports is really great motivation. One of the first things I'll do with my Raptor is becoming Raptor Expeditions member and a FRF support member. Godspeed.
