New Locost Racer Owner... Hello!
edthedrummer - 20/11/13 at 09:30 PM

Howdy folks,

Been a member on here for a little while now, posted a few odds and sods, so thought now would be a good time to say hello!

I'm Ed, a 22 year old Competition engine builder from south lincs!

I've just purchased a locost built to 750mc rules and regulations, but used mainly in hillclimbing of recent years I am led to believe. I plan on stripping it completely, with the intention of putting it on the road. Once that is completed, I'll be looking to change the engine from the 1300 X-flow to a "nicely worked" duratec or honda unit.

Look forward to getting to know a few of you, I'm sure I'll be picking plenty of brains!

Ed

Ed, have you stumbled over from the PPC forum mate? I'm TTW over there but don't get on much these days since it went all 'spammy'

Yeah not a million miles away from Deeping st Nicholas!! I'm Holbeach.

Yeah Nick, I was present on the PPC forum for years!! But also stopped when it got a bit spammy and now I can't login again.

I can still login but TBH it's hardly worth it these days. Shame as it used to be a decent forum

Yeah it did used to be one of the best I frequented. Learned many a thing on there as a 14 year old young un!
