I’m thinking might be the worst life decision ever, but I’m liking how it looks.

What’s the helmet for. To make it easier to identify you by dental records?

They seem pretty popular in the African American community

Get an MX-5 or a used Boxster. You can thank me later. If you want a bike get a bike, if you want a car get a car. The Polaris in some ways is a fun drive but I find them really unbalanced and that is coming from someone that has tracked cars for decades with a strong propensity to oversteer.

Buddy of mine had one for a a little while and let me borrow it one day and I drove it all over.. Pretty fun to drive, sketchy AF on the interstate.. But winding back roads were fun to drive..

And for the record I'm white and so is he..

Stuck me honest answer I've actually driven these a lot, and I always wear a helmet. I don't wear the helmet for safety reasons, I wear the helmet out of sheer embarrassment.

Having said that, they are also stupidly fun to drive.



Jesus Christ speech to text really took a shite on that one

Slingshot is what will happen to your body when you hit something while driving that.

If you want to live life on the edge just get a poorly maintained altima and drive it on the interstate like you stole it.

rented a sling shot out of San Antonio a couple years ago. really a power trip ride. Could spin the rear drive wheel in 4th gear and it hugged the road.

I would not buy one, but a couple hundred dollars for rental easily worth it.

Used it at the three sisters route near banderia texas.
