Vest Racing F-150 Raptor SVT Set For BITD Debut
JAN. 17, 2013

The Vest Racing Team has made the leap to a state of the art Jimco Racing trophy truck. The new truck sports a Ford Raptor body painted in the team’s signature blue. The truck is powered by a Dougan 800 hp small block V8 engine, a Rancho Drivetrain Turbo 400, a Gearworks third member and a diff housing by Collins Motor Sports all rolling on 39” BFG tires.

“After our huge success in the Protruck class over the past three years, I am very excited for the move to the Unlimited Class," says Troy Vest. "Our team is ready to step into the next level of competition in off road desert racing. Casey Folks and his BITD team always put on safe and enjoyable races, attracting the best drivers and teams in the desert. Vest Racing is anticipating another successful season!”

The new #46 truck, sponsored by Troy’s Diesel, PIAA Lights, BFGoodrich Tires, Price Auto Body and KMC Wheels will make its debut at the Parker Bluewater 425 on February 2nd in Parker, AZ.
