  • REAR TIRE

    The only parameters that the dealer has available to change is from the base to the s/l, l/e or slr. Without checking the sizes, off hand I'd say if you wanted to use a 275 width tire, you should have gone with a 275/30/20 and not the 35 series

    I got my wife’s converted to an automatic by performance Autowerks with the standard shifter for 3700. It looks great and is a blast to drive but I’m keeping mines manual.

    What did they use for the transmission? New crate one, remanufactured one, or used from a bone yard. Just wondering since there's a few different conversion guys doing different things

  • Bill Martin Needs our Prayers

    Thanks for the kind words guys, but PLEASE pray for Bill. I'm going to be fine. I really shouldn't have said anything and looking back, the smart thing to do would have been to leave it out. I appreciate the kind words and prayers, but this is about Bill. He's a big part of this forum and the slingshot community and we all bleed for him every day he's not able to ride. What we have going between ourselves was only mentioned so you can see that he's helping me as much as I'm trying to help him. Angie and Bill (in case some of you haven't had the pleasure of meeting) are two people that you wouldn't want to see go through this. I'm sure he'll agree, but until then he's got a long road to recovery.


    Bro, you know I'm always a phone call away

  • New forum software will be available soon. Going to need some help from members that are tech savvy.




    The time for prepping your summer body has come and gone. Summer is here, and do you know what that means? My friends — it is time to treat yoself, because 'tis the season to find your happy place, a.k.a. a nice place to rest with a box of donuts.


    Krispy Kreme, the be all end all of donuts, is rolling out two new flavors for warmer day,s and they're both stuffed with dreamy fillings.
    Strawberry & Kreme and Banana Pudding are the newest editions to the fried dough roster. The Strawberries & Kreme Doughnut is loaded with strawberry and the chain's famous filling and topped with strawberry icing. That just feels like strawberry shortcake shoved in fried dough. Yum. It clocks in at 330 calories, but that's not the focus here ya'll. The Banana Pudding Doughnut has a sweet banana custard blended with Kreme's filling and then dipped in icing with Nilla wafer pieces on top. This one's 360 calories.



    The Banana Pudding Doughnut may not be better than sex, but nothing says you can't have one AFTER sex

  • Bill Martin Needs our Prayers

    Bill has taken a turn in the wrong direction. Everything was starting to look good and he was able to drive to DDM to pick up his slingshot as well as bringing it to Welters to have the exhaust done. He had a doctor visit yesterday and was hospitalized. The bone infection had returned and to keep it from spreading too far as well as to save Bill's life (my words not his, but he's dealing with a bad infection) they had to amputate his leg just below the knee. It appears to have worked, but I'm sure they're going to keep an eye on it for a while. Bill is resting comfortably and on heavy pain meds, so if you don't hear from him for a while, you now will know why.


    Bad things happen to good people at times. He's come through a lot so far in the past 3 years. Let's pray that he comes through this and is able to get back to enjoying his retirement and slingshot events soon. Angie is by his side helping him get through this. She's his rock.


    We talked about Eureka Springs and we're both pulling for each other to make it there. So there's some comfort in knowing that the two amigos are helping each other along and we both will beat whatever obstacles are placed in our way.


    Bill, I'm sure this posting is going to get more than 50 likes, so when you get home you'll see just how big your family really is. You da man Bill. Glad you're part of my family - or more importantly, I'm glad I'M a part of YOURS!

  • Custom Paint

    OUCH. Glad he's not hurt after that one. I can see the reluctance to get in another one this soon. I'm sure Mims had second thoughts when his took the long way into the guard rails on the way home

    ~ THE EXAM ~


    The husband was a bit embarrassed and told the doctor he had trouble getting an erection with his wife and she was getting frustrated.


    The doc checked the man's blood pressure and other vitals, then after a thorough examination said he wanted to check with the wife.


    He took her to another cubicle and asked her to disrobe. Then he told her to turn all the way around slowly.


    She did as instructed. He then told her to raise her arms above her head, then bend over, touch her toes and cough.


    Finally he said, "Ok, good. You can get dressed now, and I will go talk to your husband".


    The doctor went back to the other cubicle and said to the husband, "Well, you can relax, there is nothing wrong with you. I couldn't get an erection either."






  • QA1 questions

    Asking someone how to adjust the shocks is as difficult as asking people which women to date. It's all a personal choice. One wants to think he's riding a
    Barcalounger, and the next guy wants to think he's in Indy racer. I'd say to adjust all three in the middle and adjust the fronts 2 clicks in either direction until it gets too much one way vs the other, then split the difference. Do the same with the rear and you'll have it set the way YOU want it on the roads you ride. Then make any fine tuning adjustments as your riding routine changed ie; Highway driving, tail of the dragon runs, etc

  • best action camera for the sling shot?

    You didn't say what the camera is going to be used on. We all know that camera would work fine on any Painter painted works or art or the FASTER RED ones. But if you have the slower grey ones, you need to use the proper equipment to film all of it's capabilities.
