This is a long one and it is full of pics and a short video describing the process and light selection for me to see further at night. First, I am cheap...I would love to be able to do the 4" pencil beams for $750 a pair Featured Products | Outlaw Raptor However, it is just not in my budget...

MarkT called me up at 11:00 and said let's run the Mormon Wells trail as I can see the snow is covering most of the mountains and into the valleys. This is one of our favorite local trails to run, especially when it snows. We have so much video footage of it that we decided to not take the Go...

MarkT and I went to Afton Canyon last week and had a fun day. I wanted to drive in a little deeper sand and he put me through the paces. Wifey went along so it is on the slower side, she does not enjoy the whoops! There was more water in the Mojave river bed than when we did the Mojave run about...

There have been a little interest lately about ham radios with all the questions surrounding race radio's, frequencies, etc. I am copying most of this post from a friends website about how to become a "ham". I am a ham and know that several people on here are too. Moderators, if you could...

Here is my version of the Mojave Road trip, it is a long one but it shows all the types of terrain from whoops to sand to rock to dry lake bed. I hope you enjoy. Watch it in HD!!! 4SPnwsw58TE

This is the Desert National Wildlife Refuge located north of Las Vegas. The Mormon Wells trail runs east to west from roughly SR 95 to SR93. About 48 miles long. You start at the desert floor around 2000' and rise up to about 6800' then back to the floor on the other side. This area goes from...

MarkT and I have run the trail and most of its tributaries 3 times in the last five weeks. Here are a few pictures of the mormon spring and the old corral. The corral is about 100 years old. This is located in the Desert National Wildlife Refuge north of Las Vegas. We have plenty of video but...

We have received quite a bit of rain for the desert over the past couple of days. I went to the closest playground to my house. The Jean Dry Lake Bed. As you can see it is not dry. I was by myself so I did not venture out into the water. There were a couple of jacked up F150's in the area but...

After seeing MMC racings pics and quicksinners comments on the Bitter Spring Trail, MarkT and I made the run last week. What a beautiful run, it has something for everyone. Sand Washes, rock hopping, tight squeezes, some beautiful scenery!!! This trail is 28 miles long and is located northest of...

Wifey and I have been to the Valley of Fire many times but we decided to go the back way along Lake Meade, Northshore Drive. This is a beautiful day trip that can be augmented with many of the available hikes. We stopped at Rogers Spring, a true desert oasis. This is an on road trip for those of...

MarkT and I went back into the Callville washes after the flash flooding of a week or so ago. We wanted to investigate and see the changes. Boy did it make some changes. Where there used to be sandy runs, there was nothing but rock and vice versa. On the positive side we were able to pass...

This trail is just east of Las Vegas. You can see the LV strip at the western end of the run. This is a scenic ride and we wnt slow on the run. Those that attended the raptor roundup and made th run with us afterwards will recognize the starting point as we ran the Lava Butte and Rainbow Gardens...

I would not have believed that I would have attempted this latest modification to the 6.2. There is a massive 15% horsepower increase while improving mpg by 10%. Everyone needs this mod. :cactus::cactus::cactus:

This is a slide show of a trip that MarkT and I did back in June before I got my video camera. This was one of the first trips that MarkT took me on and I was so amazed at the abilities of the raptor. Beautiful scenery along the way to the narrows. We did not hike to the narrows when our...

Vegas to Primm to Boulder City to Henderson 85 miles offroad starting just south of the M Resort off I-15, going through Hidden Valley to the Jean dry lake beds, running the powerline roads to Primm. Back across to Beer Bottle Pass to the desert to McCullough Pass. Down into the edge of the...

This is a high speed wash that is flat, wide and runs for about 4 1/2 miles. MarkT and I ran this wash in late June a couple of times. My speed was over 55 for most of the run with occasional bursts to 75. MarkT was leaving me behind so his speed was 75+ in places. I could not capture it on the...

MarkT and I have been exploring Hidden Valley off and on for the last month. It is just a short ride from Vegas to get into the north end of the Valley. The terrain is really varied and is made for the Raptor, there are flats in middle of the valley for high speed runs. There are big whoops in...

I had already had my skid plate line-xed about a month ago after seeing Riku's at the Raptor Round Up. Can you see the other change???? :cactus::cactus::cactus:

This video is all about the scenery of the washes, this video is not high speed runs or raptor jumps. This 1/2 day trip is slow to moderate speed runs through the washes wiith the GPS coordinates for the trailhead. This wash had six "fingers" and we explored each of them until we could not fit...

Several high speed runs across the Jean Dry Lake beds earlier this month. All runs were at the speed limiter. There are short clips of picture in picture shots coming in the opposite direction. The dust was so bad that we would have to wait several minutes before making a new run. This is...
