- Welcome to the other half of our group! For our first SoCal Raptor Runs event, we went all out! Brining the same effort, organization and style to SoCal, we went to Anza Borrego! We hit HARD trails! From jumps, flat out sections for miles, awesome canyons, landscape, washes, and MUCH more. This trip was one for the books.
We spanned this run over two days and a couple hundred miles surrounding the Eastern San Diego deserts. Starting with 16 trucks, we hit the trails day, and night for almost two days solid, headquartering at La Casa Del Zorro. Our group dinner and massive raffle are always a huge hit. The jokes and laughs, cowbells, epic family memories, and more were all shared.

Great footage and great music! It’s not often I can say that. We’ll done!
Thank you!
Good times Offroad. Looking like a blast down there, one day my wife and I will be down there to stir up some dust
great video!!
Nice! I didn’t see any Scabs or jumps! I will have to join next time on the Segundo!
There was a SCAB Gen 2! And there were a few jumps mixed throughout the video. Hope to see you out on our next run!
Awesome video! How did the Superduty with the Carli kit keep up with the raptors?
Thanks! That's just our chase truck. So, it mainly does the roads and meets us at various spots. It did go through the wash and everything to get out to Fish Creek Wash and did fine. It's also done portions of the Mint 400 race course when we were doing another run. Overall, the Carli kit is great. But I wouldn't say it could "keep up" with the Raptors. It's a massive improvement over stock though, and I wouldn't run any other kit.
Thanks for the feedback! I guess it’s the best at tow rig will do though.
This looks like a ton of fun!
Looks like alot of fyn . Raptors are nice and good off road go not get me wrong. I moght hsve wamted to but one but I understand , The way I drive and offfroad surprises will happen now and then. My dad had a Bronco I liked it a lot so when I needed to replace my little toy TRD block 4 cylinder Makuni cam snd intake headers 2"pipe all the way back the rings might be going bad? Smog was going crazy in Commie firnia I like clean air and visability but what can I do, I sold it to a couple buffalo that took it down across the border maybe home and I know why, When kicked out of my house by my mom one morning . She walked into my room and s girk was in my bed. I was not doing her not even sure if I did; She asked me who rhat is and I fouout to be sure and told herand I was gone so thisis what I did. Loaded up my 4 whell drive toy truck doing so walked by my dad on the couch who shrugged his shoulders with a smile and when I had my surfboard that really ripped the waves big or small for this. It road California pipeline double overhead with thick powerful barrels crashing way out front of the wav they looked almost squaRE ! It only breaks tjis good on te right degrees south swell. So good when big not crowded most would not have the balls to padddle out. Living close enough to hear its thunder waking upwhen oing off and see it going off big and can snap your board and hold you down in the washing machine intill you push up with your legs when your feet can touch the sand! I took off in my toy it was quick 4or a little 4 banger with a big webber carb and counterforce clutch I was gone sounding really good. I went straight to a good surf spot iIknow a nice right point break in a nice cove and rocks kept it there and from learning from my firstdive 80 feet down thats where they live so there must be those too. Brought fins and mask Hawaiian sling and rod a lock chain CD's ob arleyFreaky styley Sublime Ice Chest etc.. and headed south. Got there within a couple hours to the spot I stayed before. A little abandon house people must have left before it fell off the litte cliff . Only about 5 feet away to it 20 feet down was the water and sand but looking over though. K38 breaing into its cove sometimes surfing with dolphins jumping over the nose of my board. It was Paradise for me at 17 had a block wall around with a fire pit. A rod Iron Gate to lock in front of the gate and a little shed shack thing for a few things. I kept brooms and stuff to keep it clean as I could and the other bonus when not odd roading is no ID and way cheap drinks and great food a nice bonus for me . Coming from Cali did not have lots of visitors much but San Diego girls for a fire pit after party. But getting back yo why I started this Post I needed to get a another truck to off road. I had been diong this with the litttle roys and going faster getting chased by security on Irvine Company Land. knew the dirt roads some from riding my 2 strokes there a lot in my souped up little toy they could not catch me but would land good over little raised road landing on the downhill slope side not much air at all but was nice on some dual ranchos but now and then I would shatter front shock mounts andhad to gix yhat and did putting steel pipe in the box frame and dessert steel dual mounts it was on again. But replacing that tslking to a friend who raced and had a teamHis dad raced and hestarted too Toyota ave him a 4 runner do build it for that He sold a lot of off roadparts I would see them in a FORD DEALERSHIP SOME. i WAS TOLD BY THEM WHEN ASKED THEM WHAT TO GET THEY TOLD ME THE bronco IS THE BEST CHOICE FROM WHAT iAIDwas HE fULL size LIKE bRONCO87 AND UP WITH THE TTB can be built up with out as nuch money and I could do some of it from what I learned at work installing elevators & escalators working with metal andsubmiting needed changes to pass structural engineers that do all thee math AND KNOW WHAT IS STRONG AND NOT i HAD A COUPLE JOBS TO DO THAT ONE WAS ALOT AND MY DAD HAD A SHOP WITH A GAS STATION THAT HAD MECHANICS YJAT WOULD HELP ME IF NEEDED. sPECIAL TOOLS NEEDED LIKE TO CENTER THE CLUTCH, i PULLED THE TRANSFER CASE AND TRANSMISSION MYSELF DID THE CLUTCH AND PUT IT BACK AGAIN.
