King of the HAMMERS! I have watched a lot of videos from King of the Hammers but wow it is way more impressive when you are there in person! Some of those boulders were huge and those cars were crawling right over! It was a super fun day in the Speed UTV. I'm glad Chad didn't wreck his car trying to get up Chocolate Thunder. Will be back for next year! Subscribe to see the rest of the Desert SXS action!

Nice coverage guys👍🏼 something about beating the crap out of my machine trying to go over a rock doesn’t appeal to me 🤣 I’m more of a sand and hard pack scenario is what I prefer.
😂Chad beating the crap out of his bad ass unit to say I concurred the 10’ boulder. 🤦🏻♂️ it’s painful to watch. Had to comment again as the video progressed 🫡 thanks again fellas and stay safe 👊🏼
Sometimes you just got to give it a shot and see what happens
She sustained some minor scratches
Seems like the gearing is way too high in low. Makes me wonder how much Robby actually changes on the Speed to race KOH.
Go Ranger go...
Gettin it!
Props to Chad for trying. Good job.
Thanks man, just out there having fun!
Got have low gears and clutching take on that stuff .
Fo sho, but it was fun, and I definitely have a baseline of what the stock car can do
I was at the King Of The Hammers this year I watch Robbie Gordon. He broke the car. He put other professional drivers in that car, the speed car to run it, and they couldn’t even drive it because it broke again it kept breaking, breaking, breaking. The car should go back on the pavement where it belongs The car didn’t perform like Robbie Gordon thought it was it needs to stay out on the desert not in the rocks. It’s not a rock buggy
Bummer i didnt run into you guys out there
Next time
Ha, attempting to rock crawl up chocolate thunder in a bone stock four seater Speed UTV is just ridiculous. Some people just have to learn the hard way the capabilities of what’s essentially just a toy. You do realize that all of these UTV’s that race king of the hammers are far from stock.
so hard to watch this vid, speed is just not made for rock crawling, too long, too wide, need bigger tires. sounded like the front diff was broke.
Ya it’s more for desert riding
Good baseline, next time it will have clutching and 35’s
As number 976, everything I've seen says my el hefe won't rock crawl at Sand Hollow or Moab.
It’s a blast at Sand Hollow, Have not taken it to Moab yet. Speed is developing some super sticky 35’s that will be awesome in this terrain. Speed was a blast, a little clutching and it will do the obstacles no problem
I’m the one in the red Toyota jamming up the hard lines and the steep hills. Thanks for getting the vids of me!! You guys were gettin it in the speed utv!
Dude you were the highlight awesome job
@@desertsxs thanks man I appreciate that!
Holy crap man! You were crushing it out there! Hopefully we can wheel with you the next time out….
No offense to your red Toyota because it’s obviously a very capable machine, but you just proved that money cannot buy talent. You probably have less money in your entire set up than some of these guys have in just their tires. yet, the little red Toyota out crawled almost all of them. Nice work!
Abort abort...!! Wow not gonna lie that was hard 2 watch... the sounds that thing was makein.. good try tho chad..!!! Bet your old xrc would have made it..!!
Need some bigger tires and some clutching!
Started watching the channel because of that XRC.
Hey guys, The XRC is still around. Tell Bo to pull it out of the garage and drive it! That car is built now!
Damn that speed is painful to watch. So much potential yet so disappointing
Tell you what. Bring that speed car to Moab. I have a can am X3 max on 36s. We can run them together and really see how that car does. Everything I have seen is they do not do well in the rocks. I’ll be in Moab mar 13th-16th. Also doesn’t look like he aired down.
This was painful to watch. Considering it's factory tires on factory wheels, the Speed shouldn't have all that slipping, clunking, stalling, front end not locking up, and just a number of extremely severe issues all the way around.
Haha, It was a blast. Probably should have warmed it up a little more. It was a good Gauge, I’ll be back on 35’s with some clutching
I'll take my wildcat sport up it first then you can see if the speed will make it
I need to work on the clutching a bit.
That clutch slip is bad. You get the upgraded springs from push yet?
All stock, great place to have a baseline for rock crawling. Loving the car in the desert!
Yeah hard stuff for sure… we did it in a 4ws V8 buggy, but can’t imagine trying to get thru unscathed in a Speed 🤣… next time 🤘
My talon would have done better, sorry haters.
You should bring your Talon out. We legitimately haven’t driven or ridden in one yet
Will be out in the morning love your video's and if u see a orange and black 85 4runner and want to do some crawling I got a couple extra seats
That would have been fun we already left. Had to get back to work
Awesome video guys. The camera really doesn’t do these rocks justice. It’s so much bigger when you’re there
Ya I was shocked after standing in the hole how much bigger it was than when sitting above it for a hour
Just ordered MTS limit straps through your link. Worked great. Thanks for the discount!
Awesome! Thank you! I appreciate it we need to go rip at the dunes sometime your mav r looks good
@@desertsxs thinking about Presidents in Glamis. Installing EVO tunes this weekend
@@HooverManeuvers nice I want to go but I don’t think I’ll make it that weekend I might do a quick one day out there
Ive been racing king of hammers in utvs for 5 years. You can’t really “crawl” rock bouncing is the best way to hit it to not smoke your belt. I’ve been up chocolate thunder many times. But trying it in a 4 seater speed sxs something I wouldn’t do. That low gear doesn’t seem that low haha.
speed needs to take a look at the torque limiters. Just to much safety in it.
Truth!
Gives me even more reason not to go with a speed
Do you know what i just realized robby gordon is the steve seagal of the off road world 😂
😂 forsure
I can’t wait! Headed out tomorrow after work.
The speed car seemed like it was in high range or something, it would barely even spin the tires 🧐
I thought he returned the Speed?
No it was just in the shop. I didn’t take delivery on mine is probably what the confusion is.
Amazing footage, very cool!
Thanks
Really enjoy your videos guys. This looked fun but i really enjoy your dune vids. Keep doing to Pro R boost shootouts!
Thanks! Will do!
Was that the torque limiter making all that noise? A couple times it looked like the front tires were not spinning with the rear. Or was the belt slipping?
Belt slippage! Working on some clutching then will try again
“Uh, that’s two.” 😂
What's with all the stalling on the Speed? That doesn't seem normal.
She was still a little under temperature, these cars like to run above 170° oil temp.
Robby built such a great car 😂
The car is all stock on 32 inch tires. I could’ve made it up, but it would’ve ripped the drivers rear panel off the car. Sorry, it wasn’t worth the glory!
@@UTV-A I’ve seen yxz’s on 30’s go up with out touching a body panel. Not rippin you I understand. But the belt slipping that bad under power is pretty rough to watch.
Fo sho! I’m gonna work on the clutching and try again next time. It was a great time! I was pretty impressed with everyone who tried and made it up!
Chad you suck at driving in the rocks. It’s fun watching u hurt that car tho 🎉
I feel like the low range isn’t low enough for that level of rock crawling
He didn’t care about his plastics 😂
Why Chad Why?
Hahaha, I just couldn’t resist! Plus I needed a baseline, I’ll be back to conquer!
SPEED CARNAGE --> @ 25:00
You spoiling it lol
Torque limiters are alittle soft. Momentum is your friend on rocks. Looked goof
Bigger tires, a little clutching, and warming it up a little more, and she’ll do it.
CnD coming in hot!
Speed car not ment for rock bouncing !! Ha ha ha looks like fun
You got to try it out for fun tho haha
Where n when is the next one i will like to check it out looks cool
Check what out?
@@desertsxs next event
Rip transmission
Tranny was okay, but the clutch just kept slipping so I couldn't get the torque I needed to get the front tires up on that rock.
@@UTV-A thats good
I hate to tell you guys, but that speed car is in the wrong country. It should be on the pavement, so it won’t get scratched.
When you are out there and a steering wheel is in your hands sometimes curiosity gets the best of you. So you have to try and see for fun. Even if you know it could end badly.
Just out having fun. The Speed #97 will be back to try again
