Speed UTV take 3

[Tank]

They looked brand new. Sorry for the shitty pics.

Any chance they were delivered to Port Hueneme? @Tank

All kinds of stuff comes into port Hueneme. Any and everything goes in and out of there. Total sleeper port but I’d suspect if they were factory delivered they’d be in a single large trailer or car trailer .

 

[FlyByWire]

Well speed put the giant ass Trump banner back on the side of the building from 4 years ago. So that’s cool.

Anyone been to glamis dunes.com to see any info….

 

[desrtrat256]

If you go into AGM make sure you ask for Kyle and give him some shit for me. Tell him I sent you and it might help with something

Dont be name dropping me Fishy! haha. They hide me upstairs in a office now.

 

[desrtrat256]

When your AGM Jack is on back order and you have a flat.

Did you buy the jack directly through us or through speed?

Why new belts? Should they be changed that often?

I got mine over at Morgan’s right now installing the front oil cooler and roof vent.. then doing the service and getting ready for San Felipe.

I am hoping Hollander can get out here for all his upgrades before the trip but probably happen after.

No, they are fine, just my personal preference. It's my son's car and he tends to go a bit harder than most so I requested we change them.

Maybe because that's what the manufacture recommends to be safe?

Why You Should Replace Your Harnesses Every Two Years

Off-road enthusiasts are told to replace their harnesses every two years. For racing, SFI tags only last two years from the date sold, and need to be replaced if you want to pass tech. Most of us (hopefully) know this. But why is it two years? Are the belts really “unsafe” after that time? If...

Thanks.

I’ve seen aftermarket belts with date codes but not on the stock ones.

Actually quite the contrary, for the money the car is very capable, especially for the price.
Yes it's a first year car and its had it's issues but the bones are very solid. Speed has been very helpful the entire way.
My son is very happy with his purchase and we are having fun working on it togeather and doing the upgrades to personalize it.

The one on its side is the POS

Just kidding, we can all find the limits of a car if we try....

I wish you guys were doing this in Havasu I’d love to jump on that bandwagon.. lol.

To echo your thoughts I love my car as well. It’s incredibly capable and fun to drive.

What happened to the sleeping can am ?

Some cars like to sleep on their belly and others are side sleepers!

Need to be careful of the BS sleepers !

Back sleepers

It's great to see TWO owners enjoying their cars.

We're the only 3 on here with a Speed, so that's 100% satisfaction.

CBR oil cooler installed with the thermostat etc.. adds four more quarts of oil and between this and the roof scoop overheating problems are a thing of the past..

Cars run less than 200 degrees even on hot summer days running the shit out of them.

I don’t see RG racing on the list for NORRA next week. Max and Todd are.

We’re gonna nerf’em or honk on the way past them when they’re broken

My money says "broken".

Kick some azz down there!!!

 

[screwball]

I like mine now that it's dialed in.

 

[rivermobster]

So that makes five?

I did some math, cause I was curious...

My friends car is just shy of the 2600 number. He told me the base deposit was 3000.

So....

2600 x 3000 = $7,800,000.00

Pretty sure I could live off the interest of that with no issues.

Does that effect cabin heat?

I’ll make it six for my Diablo taking it out again tomorrow just trying to find a cooler place to go and I was a couple days ago though.

Just think if they only sold 1500 at $30,000 apiece which the average price is a lot more than that with all the options people added.

What’s the story with the exhaust and that piece of sheet metal in the 7th pic?

 

[BHC Vic]

So if i recall the big thing about these cars were they were ready to go out of the box. Didn’t need to spend a bunch of money after buying…. So how much have we put into these things to make them right? How much was the over heating issue to fix? If it blows a motor now is it still covered?

Race ready.

I would guess it would depend on what warranty was in effect? Same as anything else you would buy?

Off-road use warranties are Normaly extremely limited. Lots of em just cover you to the curb.

Hopefully Speed would step up for the major mechanical issues, warranty in effect, or not.
