Hey let’s have an interview on the side of a highway. Should be great audio.
Yeah, we'll have to make it work,, 'cause I don't think the racetrack is open today.
🤔😀👍.
What a stupid idea
My thoughts exactly
Just another guy that loves the sound of his own voice....and the sound of passing cars.
Why doesn't it say "this was a horrible idea"... if you love it. Click bated me in, not cool 👎
Trakhamr needs to donate a conversion for a full in depth review of installation and then mileage.
I am baffled as to why youtube videos on this topic of 4 wheel conversion barely show the converted car (not just your video btw). I think the conversation had great info but I wish you had included more video of the actual vehicle. I especially like the capt america theme. I would have loved to have seen more video of the whole vehicle. BTW the automatic slingshot is coming, the video has been leaked online.
I appreciate the feedback. You're right, I probably should have taken more video. Things were super busy last weekend and I had a ton of interviews left to do. Fortunately, Grant only lives about and hour and a half from me and we will be doing more videos together soon
@@BillyandBobbySlingshotShow good on you for covering this interesting topic. You should do a video on the 2020 model once the promo video is officially released. The video is leaked on facebook btw. I would hold off until the actual specs get released in the coming weeks so there is enough to talk about.
BTW here is my batman themed slingshot :)

Man that thing looks niceeeee
@@BillyandBobbySlingshotShowNice job overall, and I really enjoy your paint theme.
Can I ask? Is there any downfall to it? Why did the title say what it said?
when can we see this one in motion? I'd like to see what 300hp looks like on a slingshot
1 minute in and couldn't take the music any longer.
Next time I'd do the interview in the middle of the road instead of off to the side. That way we won't be able to hear anything at all instead of just a few parts
Although, it is no longer a Slingshot when this conversion is done, I personally when feel more comfortable driving it having 2 wheels in the rear instead of 1.
Just wonder if it will be a off road version of this (and don't say the RZR because that doesn't count)???
Hold the FUCK UP! @Colorado Sling Blade, I know Grant! We were both in Afghanistan back in 09.
Salute you guys are legends
Magnifique bonne idée...
The clickbait caption said this was a horrible idea. Must have meant the *captain america* paint theme.? because the conversion looks cool.
Granted I'll give you a trophy for the clickbait status.... But it is possible that people are modifying these incorrectly, creating a slingshot that does not handle properly. It's not like you can just add to wheels and start driving. It takes expert fabrication to do this stuff. You need to have a lot of the information that the original manufacturer had. Weight distribution, suspension everything
Love it... But needs tear fenders.
What are the main problems with the three wheel vehicle that would entice you to spend another 10 grand to add a 4th wheel ? Can anyone answer that question ?
Mainly to put down addition power to the ground when you are supercharged or turbo or if you like the look.
It’s highly homosexual…. That’s the main problem
Still cheaper than buying a lotus/Ariel atom. Power to weight in this would still be greater than a lotus Elise even with the 4th wheel.
6:46 Interesting..... So you know when there's a Green light?
Seriously. You couldn’t find anywhere else to do an interview?
You might as well have bought a frickin car! 😎
Dude please show the conversion, to much talking.
The highway noise is almost unbearable.
question idomt,t understand why would make a sling shot 4 wheel
So this conversion would be legal in Illinois
Why wouldn't it? Register the slingshot do the modification after
11k for the rear-end is stupid brainstorm some more and figure out how to market this around 4k volume my friends is key
That conversion will never be a high volume item.
Maybe show this thing?
Good god, I thought, well that was the worst possible location for him to chose to record without mics... Well, at least its just the intro.... Oh wait. They literally just stood next to the road and talked the entire video. Cmon guys...
Voted world worst audio for an interview
Why do I just want to look at y'all talking? 👎
IN the state of MICHIGAN the police could summons you take your ride and impound at your expense as well as other costly expenses providing you do not injure or kill some one your INS will not even pay as they never want to anyway SECRETERY of state clearly states the rules for 3 and 4 wheel vehicles as well as motorcycles and mopeds. All it takes is a officer having a bad day or has to fill their quota for the month.
These guys make me wanna sell my slingshot. Yeeesh!
I think you guys should have found a noisier place to do this.
yea, we dont need to see you talk. We dont have to read lips. point camera at car while you talk.
Captain Puerto Rico.
Did you get stopped by the Illinois State police
Looks like a chinese go kart and a slingshot had a baby...😂
An interview next to a busy road is an idiotic idea.
I want to see more of the vehicles and performance less talking
First buy a force induction system before you even think doing the 4 wheel conversion. Otherwise you loose a lot more money in the long run. Just my opinion
This could have been a good interview if it weren't for the traffic behind you.
I don't give thumbs down without careful consideration but most of the comments reflect my opinion as well unfortunately.
At least show some picture/video backing up wth they talking about 🤷♂️
It's only a bad idea if the person doing the fabrication doesn't know what they're doing. It's a lot more complicated than just adding wheels.
When companies build equipment like this they do months upon months of testing and failure through EXPERT fabrication. If you go through the same process it can be
1. Obviously way better looking
2. Unique one of only a few.
3. Again with proper fabrication, it will handle better.
Also - All the people stressing about registration lol calm down... Buy it register it do the conversion and drive it end of story. Stop thinking that you're under the authority of the government over stupid shit like this. Just do it and drive it Christ man. Besides like he clearly said in the video, it's about VIN number
A gocart dats legal to drive on the road
We want to see 300hp car, NOT 300 pounds fat guys. #justsaying
No other shots of the car after the first 90 seconds, just waffle and noise from the highway. WTH were they thinking about with the location? If all you’re gonna do is flap your gums do it inside ffs.
You do a lot of talking about BS, and showing less of what people wanna see which is a nice far away view of the vehicle. How it drives, how it sounds etc. you mite get more likes.
Adding a 4th wheel makes it classified as a car and that ends up requiring other features to be added on. So adding a 4th wheel makes this an illegal vehicle on the road.
I was thinking the same, airbags, safety features etc.
Only if it's from the factory.
I mean can you show off the product next time instead of us staring at y'all's mug for 15 minutes?
We don’t need to see you guys, it would have been better to see the bike
If you wanted a conversion it would have been cheaper just to buy that little pontiac 🤣🤣
I don't want to hear the yada yada yada I want to SEE the mechanical conversion! WHAT is involved?? I believe that is why you have as many thumbs down as up ...want to SEE it! NOT subscribing
Show the car!
Most owners I've seen driving these, look like these two. 3 wheels to get out of automobile requirements, just voided. Automatic, terrible 💡 indeed.
Lamest youtube video ive seen. Didnt show the subject at all.
This was a boring video! First of all the traffic over powered the video.We didn't see the Slingshot conversion kit to look at it close.The guy on the right likes to talk and say nothing.
Hideous conversion. Theres other newer ones thst look much better
14:00 minutes of yucking!
what a joke! the fact that its a 3 wheeler is what drew me to it! want 4 wheels? buy a car! 4 wheel conversion is just ugly
