I don’t know good question I will look it up and see…
Not sure who this poor soul is but when the floods hit Moab Utah this is not a good picture of a sling!
Well, it looks like another Sling flipped, but for a different reason... If anyone knows this guy there is a go fund me for him...
On August 14th, 2022, Carlin Madera aka Krazy Minion, was riding his custom Slingshot (w/ Lite the Night LED's and accessories from SlingMods.com & DDM works) home on the Van Wyck Expressway in Jamaica, Queens, NY. On the way home, his rear tire hit a large pothole that caused the rear wheel to pop off the Slingshot, which sent him and the Slingshot into several barrel rolls. Carlin was ejected out of the Slingshot, once the barrel rolls ended, the Slingshot landed on top of Carlin. The Slingshot landed right side up on top of him and the individuals on the highway flipped it off of him, god bless them. He was taken to Jamaica Hospital in Queens, NY and is still there today. The Slingshot broke all of his ribs, his pelvic bone broke in 6 places and his left arm broke in 3 places. Because the Slingshot landed on him, the exhaust burned through his back and his right leg. It is a miracle Carling is alive. The road to recovery will include multiple surgeries and months of rehabilitation to get him to walk again. Please donate to help a fellow rider on his road to recovery.

My God that’s terrible! That must’ve been a heckuva pothole. I know when we slid sideways through a corner and the rear wheel hit the curb that rear wheel popped off in a split second.

At least with the holes in floorboard it will drain right out!!!

A fully restored wagon similar to this was auctioned for charity at Hot August Nights this month. The money went to a charity that funds children's needs: food, clothes for school, supplies, sports and music equipment, etc. They included a HAN neon sign in the sale and the package sold for $35k. The high bidder then told them to sell it again and it auctioned a second time for $34.5k. A total of $69.5k was raised for the kids in under 10 minutes and it was the coolest thing I saw all week!
I also had a 65 year old buddy that lives in Reno take my brother-in-law-law, John and me for a cannonball run around town in his '69 GTX that he bought when he was 17 years old. The fun part was he drove it like he was 17 years old! He vaporized a bunch of rubber and had John convinced he was going to jail. What John didn't know was that Cong (not real name) knew the cops weren't where he was and most of Reno PD comes by his shop to BS and talk motors. He has some pretty funny stories about 'running' from the cops in his GTX.

That takes the question of is it waterproof to a whole new level.

Wouldn’t have been a problem for you since you equipped your Sling with a boat propeller - I love how you always think ahead

He has been active and positive member of the Slingshot comunity on facebook Fundraiser by Val Lameirao : Carlin Madera's 2nd Chance at Life! (gofundme.com)
Well got my picture from the Dragon already. Thought it would of been longer but they quick.
What I really like about this pic is how level the air ride keeps the sling through the turn. Probably going about 40mph in this pic. Or faster just don’t tell the cops lol
Nice pic. Excalibur!! Was you on the Cherohala Skyway Sunday the 13th around lunch time?
unfortunately NO but it would of been nice to meet up
Went through the White Mountains in NH today. Great ride and my stereo was cranking like we were at a concert. Life is good
