from donnington, locosts where there, but the one's that interested me was the "bike engined kit car" class, 18 of them at full chat remind'ed me i done the rite thing, oh the noise..........
oh, and going back to an earlier discussion, wich one end'd up with a hole in the side of the transmission tunnel ? correct, the one with the inline reverse g/box, nuff said.

Just curious, what were the average lap times of the bike engined locost vs the car engine locosts?

Should've filmed the event. Ahhh... the sound of bike power...drool!

was a wet meeting, but they where around 10 secs faster, but due to the conditions the bike lads suffered for grip, thought the locost drivers behaved themselves very well expected a bit of carnage in the conditions and a ful grid, was dissapointed at some of the locost cars, a few of them where not "pretty" to say the least.

there i will get slated for that one.....

just gor official results, bike engined where a full 21 sec's faster, not bad in just under 2 miles, i can live with hornets in my ears.......

Dayum! 21secs? That's a LOT of time. I remember being unbeatable at Solo2 with just a 4 second advantage. 21? Holy sh!t :eek:

Now I'm more than motivated in getting Bike power in my Locost!
