Watcher went down

[Steel]

He Hydroplaned into a guardrail doing about 55mph and was ejected from the slingshot.

55? I didn't think he knew how to go that slow.

In a moment of disenfranchisement I actually went to look at one - they're huge.
I really wanted to like them - really. But from my POV - impractical for me.

So sorry to hear about this!
Thanks Morris, for posting this.
Slings have traction control as well.
Speedy recovery, Adam!

Oh Bugger!!...Thanx for explaining the "Slingshot"...nice ride by the look....dont have to belt in then??
Here in NZ seat belts are compulsory and will incur a fine if your'e caught not wearing one...but not on a trike. Is that deemed to be a 'car' or a 'bike'?...just wondering. Either way, he is very lucky to be around still.

Just found this so answered my own question...

Powered by a 129kW GM 2.4-litre Ecotec with 225 Nm of torque, and sending power to the single rear wheel through a conventionally shifted gearbox and a carbon fibre drive belt, the Slingshot will be a blast to shoot through the twisties.
