Description[]

Sling Shot is an exotic, mid-engine V12 race car rated at 900 horsepower. The name allegedly comes from the tail's slight resemblance to a slingshot when seen in bird's-eye view.

Sling Shot starred as car #08 of the Highway 35 anniversary event, driven by Street Breed team leader Kurt Wylde and Zed-36. The very same car would later go on to appear (and be destroyed) in AcceleRacers.

In 2014, the casting was retooled to have the fins at the back connected, with a rivet post moved to under the fins. The base was also changed from metal to plastic.
