The cost effective concept of the Slingshot keeps the ever growing expense of racing to a minimum, without sacrificing the thrill of being competitive. The Slingshot concept and rules limit those factors by mandating the use of a sealed motor and spec. racing components (tires, rims, shocks, etc.). Winning is no longer determined by your budget but by driving ability and a well-kept maintenance program.

The Slingshot by Tobias is one of the fastest growing racing divisions in America.
Ages of Slingshot drivers have no boundaries, with current driver ages ranging from 6 to 79. It is this concept that has kept the family values of racing progressing forward.
The junior Class encompasses younger drivers from ages 6 to 14. The value of seat-time proves beneficial as the driver’s abilities continue to grow. The Junior Class runs everything the same as the Regular Class or All Star Class except they are required to run a 1 bbl. carburetor and have a different weight rule.
Expansion is greatly improving the recognition of this form of racing as many nationally known events are inquiring and scheduling Slingshots as part of their racing programs. Racing venues here in North Carolina will see the Briggs & Stratton Slingshot by Tobias racers tearing up speedways in 2022 and beyond.
