IT'S HAPPENING - SPEED UTV RELEASE PARTY | CARL SYKES REVEALED ?!?!?!
It's hard to believe, but we are here, Robby Gordon and his team have come to market with a new UTV, which is an incredible feat. I'm in the lucky position to be #6, here is my new car, let me know what you think. We are driving it this weekend, tune in for some live reviews and reports over the coming days. My first impression, is the quality of all the accessories, the seats, the dash, the custom wrap, are all very high quality. You can tell the shocks use quality aluminum, as I spend more time with it I can show you more of what i mean. I uploaded this project in 4K so you can see the details a little better. By the way, Carl Sykes is in this video, can you spot him?

(0:39) [Music] [Applause] [Applause] (0:57) Come on, hold on. (1:01) First, I want to say thank you. Thanks everybody for your support, especially all the ones that support us and I want to also thank all the haters. (1:10) They hated us, yes, because uh you're not getting hated on you're not doing it right. Is that what they say? Um, it's been a long journey, a lot of a lot of late nights, a lot of all-nighters, uh, you know, a lot of people talk about COVID they said, oh, you know, COVID delayed them there was so many days at COVID that we worked instead of went racing. It probably helped us, it's crazy to say, and all the other factors were done, but it helped Daniel and myself, uh, in the engineering side of it. Daniel, Kyle, myself, we basically lived in the shop for about eight months and we worked seven days a week on getting the project done. So a lot of people say COVID has slowed it down when he's in the manufacturing side, but it helped us to be experience side of things for sure. We're really excited about being in this building, a lot of people have been saying it all, you know, the building's sitting vacant, uh, why is that? Um, I got to be honest, I had a hard time taking this many deposits and then building a building. I just didn't feel right doing it. So we did the car and now we'll get out from the building. So when you look at the building, this is not what it's going to be. This is just going to get us by for, uh, call it 90 days and this will be a completely different facility in 90 days and be a profit facility. (2:24) I want to thank Todd for for doing this ride with me. Robbie's ride, it's a new RZR, they wrote me a letter this morning and would you please explain you maybe think for like a half hour. Um, the best thing about being busy all the time is you don't read everything and when you write it you don't prove everything so between the two of us we half the time don't know what the hell we're saying so I knew I get them because I was we had been up late last night and I I was in there you're still in bed I was in the bedroom all right he doesn't mean hey nice to get up and go to work early I'm like man I'm in the office so as he left I wrote him like Hey dude I work my ass off I'm working a hundred and ten percent sixty percent of the time.
