  • Happy Halloween — Let’s see those costumes.

    The church we go to has a GIANT Halloween night in the parking lot. A safe place where the kids can come and have a fun night with the parents. We started with over 2000 pieces of candy. We were to only give out one piece to each child…we ran out of candy at about 8:30. Fun night with over 6000 people attending.


    Here are a few of what we were asked. Is it real? Did you get it from Universal Studios? Is it a prop? Can you drive it?


    Great night!


  • Cupholders

    @frehleycomet Word of caution. When you get yours in be careful of the under side lower lip. It is very sharp. Once inserted it will not be an issue but when they are out be careful. My forward cupholder had just a tad of a Giggle to it. I took it out, put one wrap of electrical tape around the top portion of the cup and then reinserted it for a nice tight fit. However when putting the tape around the cup I cut my thumb on that sharp edge. I took both out and ran a little sandpaper over that edge just to be sure I don’t do it again X/

    Guess the "blue" is worth a buck more! :D


    The anodized cup may stay better looking longer than my standard aluminum.


    I am thinking of putting a rubber round disk in the bottom of mine - we will see....

  • Cupholders

    Wellllll here they are! Popped out the original plastic cupholders and these slid right in with a comfortable snugness and a perfect fit. I had to smile when I dropped the first one in because it was so perfect! They are a tad less deep but are uniform in size and fit a Cousy perfectly. The material is lightweight aluminum and may dent overtime not sure, but for 6 bucks apiece a great deal! And they come in four colors. Truly plug and play. Having the 4 inch lip made the replacement identical with the width in between the cup
    holders as the stock ones do.


  • Cupholders

    Hummm I knew they were a tad shorter but I was focused on the lip diameter because of the small gap in between the two holders thus the 4” lip. I will know on Tuesday when they come ?( in

    I was checking the sizes just a little while ago, and you are so correct. The SS cup outside Diameter is 3.29 inch. The SS console hole size is 3.35 inch

    @'Bigdog.


    Yes you’re correct in that California has some of the most stringent regulations if not ALL the regulations in the country however.... The rides that you see out here will really snap your head around. There are some of the coolest “what the hell was that?” riding around. Be cool with it and a lot of things get overlooked here enforcement wise.

    :) It is but it’s fun how things evolve. And for the hats I agree however we just kind of felt like we would have them forever.

    isnt it crazy how this happened to a post about some really cool leather hats?
    I will say I do really like the hats, but a bit pricey for something I would only a few times a year

  • What did you drive or ride before you got a Slingshot?

    Evening sir... I’m here to pick up your daughter 8)

    Quote from MiM

    Well, many cars before Sling... But I was modding since my teenage years... My first taste of mod bug:



    I had Mustang side scoops on that thing! Inside was a Playstation 2, TV screens, sub box, glow tube lights, strobes on the outside, an led light up exhaust pipe, just mod crazy... And my budget was very limited! More so than now if you can believe it... I was 17 years old. Working part time after school though.

    Perhaps we are in the “ignorant” zone as well. And I mean that in a nice way. I doubt many police have taken the SS class. They see what looks like a car with a seat and a seatbelt and it ends there.
