It rather depends on state of tune, weight of car, grip, driver skill gearing etc, etc.
I'm guessing that a Locost of around 650 kgs, with a standard engine will hit 60 in around 7 secs. But it will have covered a lot more ground than the average tintop.

Conversely, my mates Westy is a completely stripped out, aeroscreened pinto powered monster, with an awesome engine, and a trick gearbox. Just under 5 secs, and good for 130+mph.

Speed is money. How fast can you afford to go?

HTH Stu.
