RATING: 8.4 OUT OF 10.
Let's dive into the first drink in the line-up of Speed Energy Drinks. These drinks are your typical energy drinks with standard 16 ounce cans and edgy packaging. Speed Energy is endorsed by Race Car Driver Robby Gordon. Gordon has been all over the board with racing, but as a NASCAR driver he had questionable success, earning only 3 wins and 39 top tens in his 18 year career. And contrary to popular belief, he is not related to 4-time NASCAR Sprint Cup Champion Jeff Gordon. But enough about NASCAR, let's dive into this bad boy.
The "description" of the flavor is called Fuel, but other reviews have led me to expect an orange soda flavor. As it turns out, this does taste just like orange soda, and a good one at that. As far as full-on, sugar-laden energy drinks go, this nails the flavor aspect. I'm a fan of orange soda and this worked perfectly. There was also no aftertaste which is extremely rare in energy drinks.
Robby Gordon's Speed Fuel Energy Drink packs some V8 power under the hood. In other words, it has 260 percent daily value of vitamin b2, 240 percent daily value of vitamin b3, 240 percent daily value of vitamin b5, 540 percent daily value of vitamin b6, 1,000 percent daily value of vitamin b12, 1,811 milligrams of taurine, 186 milligrams of caffeine, 114 milligrams of inositol, and 111 milligrams of glucuronolactone. It also sports 60 percent daily value of vitamin c.
So, the ingredients are similar to your typical energy drink: chock full of b vitamins, caffeine, taurine, and sugar. As you would expect, the effect is also similar to your typical energy drink. The caffeine content is slightly higher than a Monster (186 versus 160 for a Monster), and I would say it worked just as well. I experienced a satisfactory level of effectiveness from this drink with no signs of jitters or uncomfortableness.
Overall, Robby Gordon's Speed Fuel Energy Drink is pretty solid. It's strong point is clearly its orange soda flavor. I recommend you give this drink a try, just for the flavor alone. The energy blend and the drink's effectiveness also get the job done nicely. 8.4 out of 10.
Very informative thanks for sharing.
