- Well, was it worth it?? It sure was fun taking Troy's Speed Car out! Whether it was worth it or not is up to one's own opinion. The suspension is definitely super nice! It has some really awesome features with the display options. Ride with us and see for yourself. We'll get more aggressive driving done in future videos when it's broken in.

The speed seems very cool. Great interior great suspension and kept majority of the dust out. Thank you Robby. Love the steering wheel and screen.
I agree! I know there are a lot of haters out there, but I like the design and potential of these! My other buddy gets his 2 seater here within a week so I'll get some video of that one also!
Only sxs with a complete Dom chassis and cage and 4130 suspension arms can be raced the way you buy it with door bars and fuel cell if mandatory.
The Toyota babysitter system had me laughing. Thanks for following the SPEED UTV car and getting footage to share.
Hahaha, that traction control was really annoying. 😂 If we would have had phone reception we would have googled a way to turn it off maybe. It would have been fun to follow in my RZR, but my steering rack is currently broken. I really look forward to getting out on a ride with him so we can compare the cars back and forth!
Dunefest last week I met with the owner of car #69 it was pretty legit. Spent some time chatting with him and he had a grin ear to ear. His previous ride was xp1000 and didn’t have much seat time in other
Platforms. I’m sure Glad to see 2 in oregon! I’m sure it won’t be long before someone tosses me a key to one for test drive as more head this!! . 🤘🏻
We were trying to get Troy to bring it to Dunefest, but he really wanted to get some miles on it first to make sure he wasn't going to have any issues. It sure was fun to ride in and I'm bummed I missed the dunes part. 🤙
Believe every UTV will have its ups and downs, knowing the fact the owner and founder of speed utv is Robby Gordon. Robby very transparent with his videos and constantly working to make it better at the Race track with him and his son. They were at at the king of the hammers and participated in the mint 400 this past year
I agree with this! When all the haters were dogging on this car I was still confident because Robby is a professional and knows how to make things work! I'm pretty sure he'll get the kinks out!! 🤙
@@PapaWheeliesWorld exactly, he’s gonna have one hell of a product once he’s done
I do believe that! I hope not everyone jumps ship and continues to give him time to figure out the bugs.
While I thinks it is great to have another performance UTV on the market, I am truly amazed at how little cars are in the public's hands 4 or so years later. To buy a like-priced car as the "other" guys with no dealer support is ridiculous. On top of that, we watched video after video of Robby "perfecting" and "revising" component after component, only to deliver a car that has proven to be no better than the competition.
I suspect that "if" Speed actually releases 500-1000 to the public, only then will we get the answer to that age-old question "Was It Worth It?"
I hope your buddies car works flawlessly for him, but with what we have already seen, we know that will not be the case.
I have the same thoughts as you! What I don't understand is who is actually testing the Speed UTV cars during pre production. Don't get me wrong, I love a ton of things about the car, but I don't get how there're so many little things that come up failing. I know part of it has to do with billion dollar companies vs million dollar company, but it wouldn't take long to figure out the issues that we've seen them have. I know there will be growing pains, but I'm sure most people would wait just a little longer for a product that they know won't have issues. With Robby's skills in the racing scene I hope they can overcome the issues and put out a product that keeps up with the competition in cost, performance, and reliability. We're definitely anxious to get more miles on my friend's and see how it does. I will always be honest about any issues that come up in the future.
Great video !
Thanks!!
frickin awesome 👌 👍👍😀😀
It seems pretty good so far!! 🤙
Is its exhaust ok? Sounds like a straight piped civic
It's actually not bad in person. It's not loud at all. I think it would be cool to hear it with a different muffler though.
I going to drop this in here, RG should use DCT on those UTV.
Now you're talking!! That would be pretty awesome!!
Jealous! That’s awesome you know someone that picked one up.
Truly a unicorn, haha. Two of my other buddies that were in that video have them on order.
It is a unicorn. The few people that have them are embarrassed to even post videos of oil leaks , transmission problems ....it's sad they keep promoting this junk. Can't believe people have to pay hundreds in fuel to take these utv back to havasu to fix them, no response on parts, warranty or anything.
I will make sure to update as it gets more time on it. Hopefully he'll have good luck with it! 🤞
@@cautionontherun30I would never buy a sxs that don't have dealerships to fix or get parts. It will probably take 2 years to get parts
Any issues with overheating and belt’s breaking often ?
One belt broken so far. The belt temp does run fairly high normally. Hopefully there will be some design upgrades to help lower belt temps.
#66 wow I would of assumed there was way more out then 66.
Yeah, you'd think!! I have another friend who is eagerly waiting to get #130. Still no word on that one though.
That was cute!!😂
Hahaha, thanks...I think! 😁😎
The 2 seat bandit, with 300hp will rip
That'll definitely be awesome to see those!!
What are you talking about 250miles before all the power? ??
We had heard that there was limited power during the break in miles, but I think somewhere along the lines we were mistaken.
Awesome! Did you have any issues shifting gears?
No issues with shifting when I was with him. I'll ask him if he's had any.
I know it’s up north but how were the belt temps with the windshield
They said that when they were riding around the dunes they saw 250 degrees fairly often. That could potentially be the biggest issue. Time will tell. 🤞👍
@@PapaWheeliesWorld Wow....that is very discouraging to hear, after all, the car was still in "break-in" mode from what I gathered in the video. That is belt destruction temp, unless that is some type of specially formulated Robby rubber?
Chupacabra has blow 2 belts (different cars) in his videos, that I've seen so far and now I kinda get why.....
@@FreedomIsntFree2023 agreed! That's way higher than my RZR ever runs, unless I'm rallying hard for a long period and blow a belt.
@@FreedomIsntFree2023ya belts are blowing left and right I hear motor getting hot cracking turbos
The 2024 Can Am X3 Has just put Speed UTV out of Business...
I think Speed will have a certain amount of followers that stick with it, but I think you're right about it taking many customers away! Had it come out a year or two ago I think it would have done MUCH better. With the Pro R and new Can Am it's going to make sales much tougher. It's going to be hard coming into market against billion dollar companies!
I think they will put themselves out of business with all of the problems there having belts turbos overheating axles front diff drive shafts and so on
Damn, dude does not know how to keep a steady throttle. Horrible! My brother in law drives like that in his RZR1k and ALL his family, including a friend who had to ride in it hated his driving!
In all fairness, he was trying to take it a little easy on it for the first chunk of miles. Normally Troy is WOT all the time. ;-)
Kinda sounds like a weed whacker!
I can hear it! ;-)
Where is this at?
Oregon. The dunes part was in Florence dunes. The rest was at our buddy Troy's property. 👍
Bad ass. Looks like oregon dunes?
Thanks! Yes, that was at Florence. We'll get some better footage when he gets some miles on it.
@@PapaWheeliesWorld that's awesome. I knew I would see them on the oregon dunes soon. I'm in Oregon and waiting for #2602.
That's awesome! Unfortunately it sounds like you may still have a while to wait. Hopefully we see you out there next season!!
@PapaWheeliesWorld haha yeah I'm not too worried about the wait. At least by then they should have most the kinks out.
That's a good point! It would be worth the wait if you don't have to deal with the early release bugs.
Where is your location
We are in Oregon. (Willamette Valley area)
Seems kinda doggy. It’ll struggle in dune season.
He was sort of taking it easy to break it in. I'm really curious though to see it with paddles on! Hard to say what the power will be like on the sand. It's definitely big and heavy!
@@PapaWheeliesWorld yeah it’ll suck in sand. Reminds me of a 2 stroke dirt bike. Belts going to be flying off of them.
@@RaceMentally you were right belts flying off. Turbos cracking getting beat by a stock Turbo s and getting stuck in glamis
@@CarlMitchell-we6tn I’m usually kinda close on predictions. I’m also someone who does more miles than most likely anyone out there as I live there. Reminds me of the fully built 1000 I had. We called it the turd. It would circle the bowls and make its way to the bottom. They better turn the boost up on those cars otherwise they’re great for hardpack only.
Sounds like a lawn mower and not liking the square body style..
Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of the exhaust, though in person it sounds better. I do really like the squareness of the body because it makes it look more like a mini trophy truck. I know it's not for everyone though. Thanks for your comments!
Definitely a great machine that probably excels in the deserts but doesn’t seem as well mannered or powered even after break in than the Pro R or new Can-Am R. I might be wrong though.
I don't think you're wrong! I think you have a valid point. My buddy's Pro R Ultimate was fantastic! Hopefully I'll get a chance to ride in a friend's Can Am R very soon. I want more time in the Speed car too so I can get a better feel for it. I think about 4 years ago it would have been top dog, but now it might just be another sxs. We do mostly duning, so it'll be interesting... 👍
The engine sounds really obnoxious !!!
I feel like it sounds better in person! I don't mind the sound at all.
It's overpriced for a 2 cylinder engine
Truth! But to be fair, they are all overpriced. 😎
@PapaWheeliesWorld yeah, but polaris has more to offer for a little less than that, specially the 4 cylinder engine that has a lot a room for upgrades. I saw this company that can squeeze over 500whp with a turbo and a tune.
But everyone has different brand preferences.
Look at one of my more recent videos where I reviewed the new 2 seat Speed car. It did really well! If I had to choose though, I'd go with the Pro R and 4 cylinder!
Kinda sounds like cow in labor
lol
Lmfao,,, I’m floored!
Hopefully that Speed car will be floored soon! 😁
