Hey all,
Wondering if anyone has used the tow dolly as featured on the all things slingshot site. I know you can't back up with one, but wondered how it was at interstate speeds.
Any guidance would be appreciated.

I took this video heading to Alabama going 70mph next to kev owner of allthingsslingshot. I was very impressed with the way it handled that I just bought one -

They have been around for over 5 years with lots of miles. Probably not the easiest to 'back up' --- but with practice it can be. A trailer is easy, a FARM wagon not so easy.

I've had kev 's tow dolly for over 3 years and love it!! It's relatively easy to set up and get the Sling fastened in. We've towed our Sling to several events over 1,000 miles away and have had zero issues while towing it. I do recommend strapping the steering wheel just as an extra precaution, but it's not a requirement, as the Sling tracks nicely. Backing is not a real issue if you take your time have patience. I also love how little space the tow dolly takes up in my garage when I'm not using it. I simply tilt the tongue straight up and lean it against the wall, with blocks around each wheel. Almost no foot print that way..

Bummer thanks for the inquiry , if you have any more questions you can contact me here any time or with a private conversation, or email me at allthingsslingshot@gmail.com
The Dollies have been around without incident since day one .One of the original forum guys here, Scootertrash , built a few for himself and his Indy friends but didnt have any intentions of doing it commercially so with his input, we designed the new self centering and lower trays and put out well over 100 now . They truly are the simplest, fastest way to load and transport your Slingshot , especially for those who dont have the room or desire for a full size trailer year round..

These are nice units and can be towed with a much 'smaller' tow vechiel than a flat bed or a box trailer. Need to balance the trailer/Slingshot with the tow vechiel.

How is the steering on the slingshot locked when using the dolly?

The front wheels are self centering by nature, so they track pretty good. Just for added confidence, I always thread a ratchet strap through the steering wheel and tighten the steering wheel in place. I've never had an issue with towing the Slingshot this way.
