In this episode of The SXS Guys Offroad Podcast, I get to sit down with the one and only Todd Romano of Speed UTV! We get to talk about his past racing career, sponsorship, developing a brand, building the Speed brand and Speed UTV with Robby Gordon, why they even are building a Speed UTV, how they approach the aftermarket, and much much more! This is a great episode that will resonate with anybody that appreciates desert racing, Robby Gordon, Speed UTV, or just offroad in general!
