WOW! Great ride and great Tour of the Huntsville Slingshot Factory!

We had about 30-35 Slingshots show up, a group from north Georgia and a group from Chattanooga,

Tour was awesome, got to see the factory assembly line and many of the processes used to build the new Slingshots! Polaris also served us BBQ lunch and provided a gift package (sunglasses) for all the group!

It was a long ride, about 3-4 hours each way for the Georgia group and well worth the trip! Pretty country, nice backroads ride and great weather!

Special Thanks go out to Wayne and our Senic City Slingshots, Crockett Motorsports in Chattanooga and the Polaris Factory and their staff for putting together the event! It was a great job everyone!

One interesting tidbit of information- the new 2019 will have a new Polaris designed engine .... we will have to find out more ...... but one of the first major changes for the Slingshot line!

Great ride, great tour and great time by all!

Heh @StingrayHawaii when you say the 2019 will have a Polaris engine , did they give any indication, is this an option on a new model , or will there only be that engine in all 2019 ?

No real details on the new engine other than lighter and more powerful? No real specifics yet!

Fuji Industries/Subaru, as installed in other Polaris vehicles?? One thing I believe that one can take to the bank that if a new engine is installed, it will most assuredly be lighter so to allow Polaris some breathing room to add future accessories, and here I was convinced that Polaris was reaching the end of their rope..................... :oops:
