How a STOCK Ford Raptor Can Survive Baja

  • When Ford released the Raptor back in 2010, it was in a class of its own. There was nothing like it, and to this day (the TRX isn’t out yet), holds the crown for the ultimate production off road pickup. And that’s because Ford went about building and testing this prehistoric 4 wheeler in one of the toughest terrains in the world. The Baja 1000 is one of the most extreme off-road races on the planet, pushing your machine to it’s limit. So how is the Raptor capable of tackling such extreme terrain with limited modifications? And why does Ford let you buy one of these? And why do they give you a full factory warranty as well!? Today we are going to look at both versions of Baja tested Raptor - the SVT Raptor R, and the Ford Raptor Race truck!

      Umm.. 2016 was roughly 850 miles, it took them 36hours giving an average speed of 24 mph (probably did some repairs on the road, being a factory team, they probably had a good amount of resources not available to smaller teams)... they posted the slowest time of all finishers (slower than the Baja Bugs) and twice as long as the big boys (the unlimited trophy trucks).

      @brandonreder9869 Před 3 lety

      The Raptor won't be killed by the TRX, I guarantee you that Ford will have an answer to the TRX, whether it's simply beefing up the 3.5 ecoboost in the Raptor to the GT's power level or more, dropping the GT500's engine in it, or dropping the Godzilla motor in it and bolting a supercharger to it!

    Well done. As an owner of a Gen1 that off roads, I think this was much better than the original B2B on the Raptor.
    More important than the live valve, from Gen1 to 2 the shocks were upgraded from 2.5" to 3". Not as fancy, but way more important functionally.

    This was a very good showcase on the new modular tech coming out these days, esp the electronic wastegates. Those in my time will remember it as a rumor or something that couldnt compete with a mechanical wastegate considering the high pressure, temps etc a wastegate sees.
    If im not mistaken ford is the first company that made a buzz and told the world they are here and they are durable.
