Speed UTV take 3

[sandshark1]

His dad lives somewhere up in the Lake Elsinore Temecula area I thought and he has an hanger at the French Valley airport in the same general area with all of his toys and shit in it.

For some reason on thought he was in AZ.

If one was to order a RG edition 4 door speed today, when could they expect delivery? 2025,26,27?

My buddy has one (on order) he would be more than happy to part with, IF you are serious?

Send me a PM if you are.

I’m wondering what a feasible timeline is. If there’s over 20,000 on order now, and the current numbers delivered are under 1,000, what would be realistic if I order now and go to the back of the line?

if you ordered one right now. My guess its 3-4 years out. could be less but it doesnt look promising.

you can pick up 4 seats for no markup all day long right now. pick your poison of loaded or no options

no options will run you 35k. Loaded about 45K

 

[Fishd00d]

My friend has a 4 seater fully loaded whatever the top model is, even did the big brake kit and eibach springs added, 48 month warranty, its got like 200 miles I think. He will take 55K right now for it. Its available to pickup in Orange County right now. Lemme know if anyone is SERIOUS and ill get all the specs. He paid 56K for it so hes not trying to make any $$.

Everyone is wondering. Nobody knows. I doubt RG even knows.

That number includes dealer orders and I don’t see dealers following though on those orders.
The last number I heard was apx 5k direct to consumer orders.

What a way to run your business. ETA? No idea. lol.

You must be new to this debacle...

Welcome!

I didn’t see RG respond here.. I saw a bunch of people theorize on something’s..

 

[rivermobster]

True.

But since RG has been promising delivery dates for Years without coming through, I wouldn't expect a solid answer out of him either.

If @FROGMAN524 Seriously wants one, buying one on the ground, or an order with a low number, would probably be his best bet.

Ready to rock & roll!

 

[Bpracing1127]

At the current rate it’s 6.5 years to full fill the 5k pre orders they had. We’re 15 months into that 6.5 years lol.

Basically business is not sustainable. If they can’t double their output by sand show they are in serious trouble. But what do I know I am just a Polaris owner.

 

[FROGMAN524]

I didn’t see RG respond here.. I saw a bunch of people theorize on something’s..

You’re right. His marketing sucks. I could be a buyer but am not convinced his company will be around in 5 years for support nor am I confident I’d even have the car in that time frame anyway. At least with a canned ham or a poor laris id have an enormous dealer network to deal with and wouldn’t be going to havasu every time there’s an issue. Unlike yourself, I don’t live there nor do I have a second home there nor do I boat there.

$51K and no dealer network to take it to for service or repairs. It is a long drive to Utah to get that one.

RG did open up that faucet or hose or whatever he said. First deliver was February last year and I think they might be up to 800 cars delivered.

Exactly.

What is really interesting that I read about often is how customer can never get a hold them through any media or platform for assistance either with a car in hand or a car on order or the worst part a car to pick up.

I’ve said it many times but speed is a garage shop run business. Because of that it’s not scalable.

Let’s face it the drive train is extremely unreliable.

 

[FROGMAN524]

To be clear, I think the car is cool, and I wish RG and his customers the best of luck, I just don’t think it’s a wise decision to drop that kind of coin on a UTV I don’t need with so many question marks surrounding the entire operation and timeline. My neighbor just picked up a new Polaris RZR Turbo R 4 Premium and it’s a sweet rig with about 15 dealers in Phoenix or more to bring it to for service.

 

[pixrthis]

I have a friend who just sold his gently used mid three digit Speed car for $400 more than he paid for it. He said and continues to say the car is bitchen but he went and bought a new RZR leaving me wondering how bitchen was his Speed car. Lots of great ideas didn’t pan out, is this one of them? We shall see.

You pulled a Monster flagship sponsor, damn?! Nicely done dude!

You got some accountability to finish good with that on the side of the car lol

Ya Monster has helped me with stuff since I started Fishgistics so it was cool they were in when I asked about racing this year! Cant wait to get down there, come and say hi! You guys are racing too right??

 

[RiverDave]

Ya all keep talking but here we are ready to rock and roll.. I love my car and no offense to the shit talkers. But I have owned some Offroad shit.. dare I say per year probably more then they have ever owned. (Anyone on here want to compare?).

But what do I know? lol.

 

[RiverDave]

My long travel industriies built teryx.

You guys are fucking idiots.. BPRacing is more like bp stock as fuck with some slow as shit.. lol.

I watch this thread.. nobody has driven one. Nobody owns one. Nobody has any actual information..

Let me give you a clue. If it sucked I wouldn’t own one. Yet here we are.

 

[RiverDave]

Anyone that wants to go.. any hater that wants to go.. I’m ready. Here’s the car.

Don’t believe all the bullshit you read on the internet

Your posts come off like a drunk teenager no offense

Im just giving him a hard time. I honestly couldn’t care less. His windshield is on though, so he either found a fix, or that thing isn’t being driven. Looks cool

I had to check the time they were posted at too lol

Dave remind me how many motors and turbos your car has been through? How many miles do you have again? And last how many time has it been to speed for fixes?

That’s right STFU, you know my shit is far from stock. You know I routinely do 3500 plus miles a season. Your car wouldn’t even make to the first gas stop on the first day.

Btw still on stock motor and trans, still on stock turbo but did upgrade to a billet compressor wheel.

You are right I don’t own a car or have any interest in owning a car.

Last question where is your boat? After all you are the leader of a BOATING forum. If the prerequisite is to own a speed car to post in this thread then you cant post in the forum cuz you don’t own a boat.

Seems to be hit or miss with contact with Speed. Some say they have no issues getting ahold of someone at Speed.

I certainly would not plan any long trips around a Speed UTV, if I had one.

Skipped NORRA this year unfortunately. Racing the Baja 500 instead.

Good luck bud. You guys are gonna have a ton of fun.

Wont this fix the windshield overheating deal?

No, it's not solving it, still not enough air getting into the cab to keep it cool.

The only thing that fixes the windshield overheating deal is 50 degree weather or removing it.
