Slingshot was a car driven by Kurt Wylde in Acceleracers: Ignition and World Race. It was Kurt's from World Race and was repainted in Teku colors.

History[]

It was driven in the beginning of Ignition and was later destroyed at the end of the Storm Realm, when it hit a drone car, flipped over, lost a wheel, and shattered the windshield. With only a few minutes to go, Kurt had to abandon Slingshot in the Realm.
