Mash-It to the Mint -

March 3/9 & 3/10

We are excited to be heading back to the Mint 400 for 2018!

 

We'll be leaving Barstow 7am sharp for to Las Vegas.  We'll reach Vegas around 1pm-2pm where we'll head to VIP parking at contingency. Saturday we'll meet up in the morning and head over to the special roped off viewing area to watch all the action. 

​

What's included:

​

  • Special roped off viewing area in the "Quarry". This is reportedly the best place to take in all the action.

  • Exclusive Mint 400 swag bag

  • Pair of 24" EXO stickers

  • EXO hat

  • EXO T-shirt

​

Truck requirements: 

 

While we were born in the Raptor community we allow all capable trucks. Our expeditions are fast paced so we do ask that your truck be modified to the performance level of a stock Raptor and in working order. For example, a Silverado or Tundra upgraded with bypass shocks would be fine on most of our excursions. We also recommend some sort of bump stop kit to prevent frame damage should you get a little carried away on the trail. Please contact us if you have any questions.

​

  • 50 watt vhf radio - programmed with BFG Relay (151.715). Weatherman (151.625) is also a good idea.  

  • GPS - Preferably lowrance. If you don’t have a lowrance let us know and we can figure something out.

  • 1 and preferably 2 full size spares - flats happen all the time in the desert and you don’t want to have to call it a day if you get just one. Several times we’ve had someone get 2 flats.

  • ALL maintenance done and truck running in good working order. If you have a small problem with your truck it almost always becomes a big problem on the trail.​

​​

Driver expectations:

 

  • Most importantly - a great attitude!

  • Level headed driving - Our runs are not races. We expect you to obey all speed limits and drive at a safe and reasonable speed based on conditions. 

  • Failure to meet these expectations will result in you being asked to leave and will not be invited to participate in any of our future events. 

 

Hotel: 

​

  • We'll be staying at the Golden Nugget Friday and Saturday night. Hotel discount code is: GSMNT50 . You're welcome to stay elsewhere. 

Friday:

 

  • 6:30am - Gather at meet spot in Barstow gassed up and ready to go. We’ll load map files, air down, and have a quick drivers meeting.

  • 7:00am - Departure

  • 1pm - Las Vegas

 

Saturday:

 

  • 10am - Meet to cruise out to the race.
