Holy crap. Not good....

Great to hear everyone is ok.

prayers that all are physically OK- my heart goes out to the owners.......

Talk about bad taste ..... posting before the man even has a chance to do it himself, making assumptions even though you have never seen the machine and where not there, then posting information that is just plain incorrect .......

Why type on an iPad keyboard if the posts just get deleted? There were a couple of wrecks, but only one sling, a newborn, and minor. We should take this up in another sub forum if there is still interest.
Most importantly, nobody got hurt.

I heard 2 Invaders crashed but only saw one with my own eyes. It was a blue one that went front/passenger side into a wall and it appeared he lost most of the front body work, damaged the front of the framework and passenger side tire suspension and wheel. This happened on the very first session, cold track, cold tires about 6 or 7 minutes in.
@Tangos happened at the end of the day. I did talk to him and even saw some video, even after that I'm still not sure what happened. He has some front end damage, I'm sure you guys have seen some pics posted by some others that just can't seem to wait to stir the pot, for what ever reason I cannot even begin to understand. Either way, the important thing is that @Tango is okay. If he wants to discuss further what happened, I feel we should leave that to him. If it were I, I'd probably just want to leave it at I'm fine, I don't want to talk about it!! LOL... He is much wiser than me and seems to understand shit happens and you move on. I think I told him verbatim that I would have been laying in the fetal position crying on the track...

I know everyone in those pics. If there is any takeaway, it is that a sling attracts nice people. Nice to see the crew took care of their own. Not surprised. Ride safe all!

If you're going to make a comment like this at least proof read it. That would be improper. Do you have proof that it is the case or are you just making wild accusations? You are making comments about another vendor's product @Turbosling and about a member @Tango that some of us consider family. So, yes like @Orangeman said, this is in bad (horrible) taste.
The only positive part about your post is that it shows "the family" coming together and getting the Slingshot back in the trailer.
I'll be sure to mark Cyclesprings/SlingshotOnly down as places to disregard.
