I want to go track riding locally and heard that Carolina Motorsports Park was one of the best places around Charlotte. Has anyone ever gone??
Based on the tracks... it would be really cool to have a get together there!
Thoughts/opinions??

SWEET!! Pre (or) Post MV?
Unless something happens real soon, I probably say post MV... and here is why. You are probably gonna have to wear some gear and the middle of summer months can be pretty hot, especially with all that gear on. Track days are most comfortable in Spring/Fall time. That being said, as long as I can get the time off from work, I'll make the trek down for the track just about anytime. The fun factor makes the comfortability issue a non-issue.

I'll put this on the back-burner then until we return from Thailand in the Fall... (by then, DDM would have dropped in some more HP which should add to the fun factor)!
Not really track related, but I like the new avatar @ericastar76.
I have ran CMP quite a bit, pretty fun track, lots of run off room which makes it pretty safe. Since they can split it up into different courses, it is pretty fun because they will run the shorter course in the morning so everyone gets used to it, then run full course in the afternoon. If there is a track day for Slingshots, let me know, I am in! They usually have pretty reasonable pricing also, especially for weekdays if that can be setup.

It's settled then... I'll setup an event with the group!
Side note: Keep your eyes out for a quote request from Mitch ( MACAWS and I are scheming to do some work on my sling! ) ~> WOULD LOVE to unveil everything at MV (but it can wait if your build schedule is too tight... I know y'all are busy).
Very cool, set it up and let us know!
We will bring the trailer with supplies also and can offer tech support while we are there

I think this would be best done at the shop... besides ~> that would be cutting into our ride time (and we can't have that now can we)! LOL
@KayTwo and @sideseatdriver ~> When DDM makes it happen, @MACAWS, @Sideslinger and I want to swing by and grab dinner with you both ~> see the kiddos too! Miss you two!!

HAHA ~> just realized you were talking about the track day... the spark plugs in my brain are not all firing right now!

I figured since all the "cool kids" have branding unique to themselves... I would do the same!
*Mitch is etching it on to the new Front Protection Kit I ordered yesterday...
Indeed!
Very cool , cool kid @ericastar76, that will look good on there. Exact same as your avatar?

Months ago I sent them an E-Mail explaining what we wanted to do and asking them if they would be interested in letting us bring the Slings to the park. I never received a response back from them so I just dropped it. It was not a simple request it was a right long e-mail. I am in on this if we can get it done.
@ericastar76 go ahead and try working something up with them (CMP) starting now.
Motorcycle exitement, the company @TheRock goes through. Does some of the same track days in Garysburg, NC. It's an hour from the Motorsports track. You may have better luck with them.
