F1 professional Yuki Tsunoda and Aaron Colton, a professional motorbike stunt rider, sped down the makeshift raceway.
KRON4's Lindsey Ford asked Colton, “A lot of people were in the crowd wondering, how did you even learn you could do that?"
“Well, first and foremost everything in a parking lot, but I learned on smaller bikes climbing up," said Colton. "Even as an adult, because it's really tough. These bikes are really powerful and expensive, and I learned mostly on smaller equipment.”
Mitch Guthrie had fun doing some donuts. “Yes, so this is Ford Raptor T1 Plus, so it's built for… it goes for the craziest terrain — dunes, rocks, sand, a little bit of everything.”
Even San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie hitched a ride in the Ford Raptor T1.
Suzanne Ford, the executive director for San Francisco Pride, attended.
“I’m super excited to see it in San Francisco," said Ford. "I’m a huge fan of Formula 1. I’ve been a NASCAR fan my whole life. Red Bull is sponsoring SF Pride, so I got a full itinerary."
Guthrie’s next move is heading to Argentina, Abu Dhabi and Morocco.
"This truck is all over the world and it's cool that everyone can get a taste of it in California. It’s rarely here, so everyone got to see it in person," said Guthrie.
