Ford F-150 SVT Raptor R completes inaugural run of Baja 1000

http://www.autoblog.com/2008/11/25/f...-of-baja-1000/

The SVT team entered with realistic expectations, hoping to simply finish a race that has a knack for providing unexpected challenges at every turn. Mission: accomplished. The SVT Raptor not only crossed the finish line, but it did so with flying colors by finishing third in the Class 8 division. This is especially impressive considering the Raptor is built for the lower-level Stock Full class in which it couldn't compete because the production version is not yet for sale.
