    I am back home safely. I was almost home and got held up in traffic for an hour because of a wreck. Anyone who likes to mash the gas in there Slingshot needs to get on a track the next time we do this. Today was the most fun I have had in a long time and spending time with some of the finest our Slingshot family.

    Same here my friend...great day...great people!

    made it home after I decided to drive to Savannah, get to the track fifteen minutes before the SlingShots were going back on track and say to myself " Self, it would be a good idea to go on the track vwith no practice, no preparation and against doctors and Susi's orders"....... What possibly could go wrong?


    Well after 1 warm-up lap... I spin into the inside grassy area, but no damage. So went back out onto track... Two laps later.....pushing harder than I should, the rear snaps around and I'm heading into a ditch with a culvert. It's amazing how much can go through your mind as you are barreling towards a culvert at a high rate of speed..... Things like "Damn... This is gonna hurt", "How come I had to be this stupid", "Susi is gonna Kill me!", "Oh... There are tires in the culvert, maybe this won't hurt too bad.", and then I hit the tires, flew through the air about 10 feet and landed way way softer than I should have. Some bent brackets, broken plastic.... But no really bad damage.... Drove her home and Will survey the total bike later this week. So the lesson here? Don't be a Dumbass like me.... Take track days seriously and do your prep work first.

    Glad you are OK. The Sling can be fixed.

    Spectacular Track Day,


    I just rolled in parked and now it is time to go to work.


    Huge thank you to everyone who showed up and helped show just how professional our group is. Long talk with the track manager and the organizer and they were very pleased with our performance. Even the fly over from @StickerDick (glad you were unharmed and very happy you made the trip up).


    There will be more track days here and possibly some other similar tracks - Will keep you posted


    This was an awesome track and you guys are the best!
    I had a great time despite my poor track performance. I hope everyone gets home safe and starts posting pictures and video's.
