I have not decided if we are staying in Maggie or outside of the valley and riding in to see who will be there. I found this blog thing that may answer some questions as to what is open / closed hope it helps. Not sure how up to date it is but there are phone numbers for all
Good information about the restaurants MACAWS. At least we know we will have a place to eat, even though it might take a little extra time to get in and out, but I am good with that. Does anyone know if a mask is going to be required while inside the fair grounds. I want to make sure I have enough for the week. Don’t know how to contact ivor to ask him.

Anyone interested in another trip to Maggie? 2nd or 3rd week in July
Are you talking about going on one of the weeks after July 4th?

Is anyone running the nascar sportster windshield during the summer months? I was thinking of purchasing one for warmer months or a set of baker air wings to mount to my Slingshade for a little extra air flow.

I can not believe how hot it is in Piedmont SC right now. This heat is unbearable....
You think it’s HOT today, you should have been here earlier in the week. The humidity was unbearable. It’s actually nice today with low humidity. Of course this is the south in the summer time.

Display MoreArrived in Wyoming yesterday afternoon. Contrary to what y'all might expect, its not a very big place...
And imagine my surprise when I pulled up next to a ZZP Camaro!
Well, not so surprising since I'm in Wyoming, Michigan, the home of ZZ Performance! Met here by Kyle D He will be working on Ruby today & tomorrow. (Exhaust system, turbo, & a few other goodies 😎)
I had hoped to hang out for a master class in modding, but no one is allowed in the building 😕 due to Corona Virus. Kyle is a great guy, so I'm not arguing about this. Sitting in a hotel waiting for my Ruby to be ready for the ride home.
Its only a couple miles, so I guess I could hike to downtown Grand Rapids and watch the riots...
Nah. I brought books (All of Physics in 15 Equations, and Mathematics for a Flourishing Humanity) and magazines (Guns & Ammo, Concealed Carry, and Shooting Times.) I'll be fine!
Doc&Ruby I hope you have something to cover your 😃 up on the way home. With the sweet sound that a turbo makes, you want be able to keep from smiling and the bugs may be hard to clean from your 🦷. Congrats on the install and be safe on the way home with all that new power. 😎 Remember the old saying, pictures or it didn’t happen. 😂

Reservations made. See y’all June 1 sometime after lunch. Looking forward to seeing all of you.

Ok Shirl is about to call for reservations. Do you have a block of rooms already reserved to get the $59.00 rate?
I looked at their website and the rooms looked to be $69 for next week. No block of rooms.
No, SlingSC was the one talking to the motel. I need to call also tomorrow.
I need to call them tomorrow also.

Is anyone using the Baker air wings that are made to fit the Slingshade? If so how is the air flow in the cockpit in warmer weather? Is the mounting secure and are they easy to adjust? Once adjusted do they stay in place? Any feedback pro or con would be appreciated.

I was not fortunate enough to me Rob in person, but anytime I made a post on the forum for help, he was one of the first to respond. I could tell that he had a passion of just wanting to be helpful. RIP Rob and hopefully all us will meet up with you at the Slingshot In Heaven event. Prayers for the family at this difficult time. 🙏 ❤️

SlingSC I finally found the one in March of this year.2019 SLR Red Pearl.Got a great deal I could not refuse.I have been lurking and learning,lot's of valuable information to go through on here.Thanks for asking.
SC Slinger , Nice looking Slingshot. Maybe we can get together in the near future for a day of riding. 😎

Finally got to ride with Slopoke and my buddy Dalton running the Gauntlet.....
Hey SC Slinger I haven’t seen many post from you lately. Are you still renting or did you find that perfect Slingshot to purchase?

Happy Birthday!!

Never mind the laws, simply take a string and tie it to the top of the roll bar, now attach the other end to the highest point on the hood, not the top of the windscreen for it is not structural, to the top of the hood. Now sit in your Slingshot and check out how close that string comes to the top of your head, (I raise the string up with my head.) I would think that for anybody with any common sense at all.................................
Bill
Sounds like a MG I use to own, except the string would be from the non structural windshield to the trunk. My head head would be way above the string.

I going to give it at least another week
That’s what I was thinking, about one more week. I was planning on going to Maggie Valley on May 26 and hang out for a couple days. I am going to call the motel I stayed at last year and see if they are open and find out from them about the restaurant situation in Maggie. I will let you know what I find out.

I am planning on going to NC mountains for a couple days of riding in the next couple of weeks. Was planning on staying in Maggie Valley for a couple of days. Does anyone know if the parkway and Maggie are open? (Lodging and restaurants) I also heard that a helmet is not required in NC for the Slingshot any longer. Is this true or just a rumor?

Had Dave@DDMWorks install there oil cooler and filter relocation kit today. Just a little extra protection since I had the DDM Stage 1 turbo Installed back in early February. 😀
-
Hat's off to Dzemboc77 for taking the time to post all of this and hats off to Dave@DDMWorks for taking such great care of him and all of us. I will be doing exactly the same thing with the exact same turbo in the fall. I can't wait. Dzemboc77 it has been a pleasure to follow this thread. Keep us updated.

I had the DDM stage 1 turbo installed in early February this year and have been loving it ever since. It is a blast to drive with a lot more power and the sound of the turbo is sweet. Dave@DDMWorks installed mine and the fit and finish of the turbo kit is just amazing. I am returning to DDM this Monday to have Dave install the oil cooler. If you are looking for a turbo, you can’t go wrong with this setup and the service and support from Dave@DDMWorks is outstanding! Nice write up on your install Dzemboc77. 😎 -
I have recently added a DDM turbo to my Slingshot. After reading this post, I was thinking it would be nice if I could add one gage like the AEM 5” so I could monitor things like boost,air,oil temp, coolant temp and so on. Can the stock ECM with the updated turbo tune be used with the AEM or does the ECM need to be replaced with a aftermarket ECM? rabtech Dave@DDMWorks
