I just got a call from Speed. The only number that matters is the master, 1377 in my case. The other number does not mean anything and I think they have stopped using those. He did say they will continuously build 4-seaters once they get running and then add a second production line for the 2-seaters (instead of switching the line over from 4-seat to 2-seat). His estimate for my build was that it would probably be around the 800th built based on the mix of 4 and 2 seaters on order and my master 1377.

No worries. I misunderstood my place in line. I've got some interest on the speed facebook group and if it does not sell then I'll continue to wait it out and go through with the purchase. I am convinced it will be bad ass and it is a killer deal at my price. But I have no idea if I'm looking at 1 more year or more.

All this time I thought that you were a “high grosser” Dave. LOL Just heard that term last night and love It. Let it be known that RDP is no longer the home of ”ballers”. But now the home of ”high grosser” from this point forward. LOL

I just want to see these things out in the wild, will be exciting to have another player in this market. Will see what it does to the other manufacturers, or if they develop something similar. Hopefully soon.

Looks fun! Which mountain did you head too? It came down good here in the afternoon, but not much stuck on my side of the valley.

We went across drake to perkinsville up into Williams. Then we just caught forest service roads off of perkinsville.

Didn't get to ambitious as we were alone.
Found a small hill for the girls to sled.

They have shut down the 40 and on our way back i pulled a mini van to the asphalt right where drake meets perkinsville. I dont know how it panned out as now they were going to be facing 8-12" of snow. And the road hasnt been plowed.

So then we were flagging everyone down going across Drake telling them to turn around. Called the sheriff and told them they might wanna post an officer just to warn motorist as them or coconino are probably going to be busy with stranded motorist calls.

I love my Pro R. Does everything I need to do! And does it really well. I was a little worried about the extra weight on the contrary I really like how it takes a set and lets the suspension do its thing.

Doesn’t bounce all over the place. Had a couple of oh shit moments and it really impressed me just flew right through it.

More than enough power for what I am doing.

We had 3 of them out for 200 miles this weekend. And all was flawless.
Checks all the boxes. I really think Polaris crushed it with this one.

If I need more power and more speed, I am getting off the ground and putting on a parachute and flying. And really get my rocks off !!!

I do feel for all you guys. I did consider thie Speed car quite seriously and went the other direction. No regrets

Honest question. If anyone of the big manufacturers releases a side x side with the same features before robby releases his are you waiting it out or would you sell and jump ship?

At this time I went with the Pro R . MAYBE by the time I'm ready for a new sxs if Speed is around and they have proven they are reliable I may look at them !

I always wonder how many GPS travelers get sent down those "roads". Some of them have names, not numbers, so people think they are at least paved. Hell of a learning curve!

Had a great time out at Dumont playing with the toys, the weather was great Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday . Saturday blew most of the day then really turned nice about 10pm then went to shit again after midnight. Today turned out to be a decent day. The Pro R and turbo R are the absolute shit in the dunes. I’m super happy with both of them. And then when you want some adrenaline you jump in the Buckshot 😉
