just wondering with the new haynes manuel for the locost based on the sierra out now. will it be allowed to race?

I think the Haynes Roadster may be eligible for the 750mc RGB series (aslong as you have a motorbike engine in it) but not the kit car series. This is one of the reasons why I am going to still build the original Locost for the 750mc Locost series

i'm also thinking of building to enter the locost class but escort parts seem to become more and more scarse to get hold of easily.

Nope Locost Champs is for original Ron Champion design only!

Hi the 750mc have confirmed that the new haynes roadster will definetly not be elegible for the the locost class of racing.

If it is locost spares such as axle and front uprights dont worry.

There are people whithin the formula who have collections of spares for people who are seriously interested in racing in the formula.

cheers matt
