2024 Tatts Finke Desert Race | Ranger Raptor | Ford Performance

[@darronfenton4145]

After watching this I took the plunge on a Raptor. Picked her up yesterday. What a machine.

[@dwaynE2099]

Next year Ford Performance should bring the Raptor trio for Finke... Ranger Raptor, Bronco Raptor and F150 Raptor all deserve the "Raptor" name and would be a wild show for fans :)

[@NathanFrank-qz4dq]

wont be allowed to race as the bronco and f150 are both not sold in aus, therefore cant compete in the class

[@bendgeddes]

It is only the Ranger Raptor that is actively encouraged by the manufacturer to jump in stock form, to the best of my knowledge. Do you think Ford has the same confidence in the other two? 🤔

[@NathanFrank-qz4dq]

@@bendgeddes yes? or else they wouldnt race them in the baja 1000...

[@justana3507]

@@NathanFrank-qz4dqthey have the 150 in Australia this year

[@NathanFrank-qz4dq]

@@justana3507 it’s not the 150 raptor, therefore cannot compete in production class

[@mikecurtis2585]

Love seeing those Ford's racing! Go FORD!!!!!!

[@skyoung419z]

Ford needs to make a Ranger Raptor “R” with 35s.

[@RyTrapp0]

Ya know, I was gonna say "and the 3.5l EB from the base F150 Raptor!" - but, on second thought, maybe they should just go ahead and drop the Dark Horse Mustang's 500HP 5.0l in there instead(marketing wise, that would pair up nicely with the 5.0l powered Ford Raptor T1+ car being developed for next year's Dakar rally).

[@MalkathiusRecord]

Awesome setup and livery 💯

[@tryplebyte9822]

im so excited for mine to arrive next year you cant imagine !

[@thedumbestdoge881]

As a Chevy guy (Silverado TB and Colorado ZR2 owner), this was so fun to watch! What great production Ford put out! Chevy definetly screwed up racing the Silverado ZR2 and not the Colorado ZR2 though. The Colorado is built so much better for offroad racing than the Silverado, minus the big 6.2L.

[@DavidFigs]

These videos of the Ranger Raptor is why I bought mine! Love seeing it and great work Brad and team! Also how do I get myself one of these FP RR Jackets

[@sizanbarbhuiyan4365]

I love this car

[@CarlosPizano-k3b]

Finke race! 🌵🏁🤙🏻

[@TREVORJB101]

I'm a Chevrolet ZR2 fan, but this was an awesome video!

[@sbushkin]

So the truck comes with 33s but they race this on 35s? What are the specs of the wheels and tires and what needed to be done to the truck to accommodate the 35s?

[@NathanFrank-qz4dq]

they also have revalved shocks that cannot be done to a normal car, u cant replicate this

[@CM303898]

The shocks are threaded, they set the ride height based on the weight they were carrying. For 24, they did a new shim stack and port layout, but all internal to the dampers. The springs are standard, bodies are standard. Live Valve recalibrated to suit.

[@angusmacgyver1390]

Not much more than the correct offset and a wheel alignment to use full size 35's, and then maybe a shock re-valve and spring based on expected weight due to the roll cage and other accessories to re-center the correct ride zones

[@angusmacgyver1390]

@@NathanFrank-qz4dq with the standard FOX shocks fitted to the Ranger Raptor, they can be re-valved for height or zone adjustments as I have done it to my one through Mikes Shock shop in Brisbane, I had it reconfigured for my on board weight and up rated springs. As for fitting the 35" even before I had up rated the springs and with a fitted bullbar and winch, I only needed the correct offset and an alignment to fit them

[@NathanFrank-qz4dq]

@@angusmacgyver1390 and ur revalving has no warranty and will not perform the same as having fox/ford themselves do it

How to get a hold of Ford Raptor hoodie ??

[@juanmanuelvivas6299]

Does anyone know what wheels setup have this RR?

[@Tourn4x4]

Yeahhhh buddy 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

[@nasosnasos8054]

Love

[@gixxer200hp]

Wonder how many times they have to fuel up per race lol. My raptor drinks fuel like Barney drinks beer.

[@nathansharma87]

How many ks do you get per tank on average?

[@tyronvangreunen]

@@nathansharma87 350km. It's actually ridiculous. Put hydrogen kit and now around 650km per tank with 1liter of water per tank.

[@dannyrexknight]

@@tyronvangreunen You don't actually have one do you... Hydrogen kit = 650 km's hahah.

[@thepilotman5378]

I would love to see a video where a stock 3.5l on 35s has to race a truck like this. It would be and AMAZING commercial to show off the F150 platforms... I know that truck is capable of bouncing around like that

[@AaaBbb-ug8qh]

Is V6diesel engine good ?

[@bendgeddes]

Tell us about that snorkel!

[@actofliesEM]

Omg the worst, unskilled drive I have ever seen, no sense. thank God raptor saved itself .♥️♥️

[@kupaloids13]

wheel offset?

[@nathantroutman4728]

Yes sirrr

[@MisterJ.J.]

That is not fair because the Silverado is in a different weight and size class. The Silverado probably has a big V8 where as the Ranger has a 3 l V6.

[@CM303898]

Production truck is production truck.

[@1maplegirl]

Stock tie rods or u upgrade

[@paulpeters5199]

Would really love to be able to buy a sweatshirt like that if it’s possible please

[@MohdFirdaus-lk2dm]

Yup

I'm surprised that they didn't have the rainbow pride livery on it.
