Morning all
Been doing a bit of looking at the 750 motorclub lowcost series.
My missus doesnt want me to race bikes anymore but didnt say anything about cars. Got a bit of saving up but give me a shout as and when cars come
available full set up required
U2U sent
If you love bike racing, check out RGB series run by the 750mc, closest thing to bike racing on 4 wheels
Coming from bike racing I would also say the RGB would be a better route for you.
I can't agree with suggestion to race RGB - probably because I have a 750MC Locost for Sale, ready to race...!
Its on this site under Market Place - For Sale. Posted 19-1-12 (sorry, can’t connect to the thread)
Reluctant sale of 750MC Locost race car. Comes complete and ready to race in 2012 series.
(Currently fitted with front lights which are no longer required by this year’s regs but easily removed [6 bolts], if you wish.)
Extinguisher serviced and refilled by FEV March 2011. New belts also in March 2011. Includes transponder, lap timer etc
Car was originally built around 2002, raced once in 2004 and 6 times in 2011. – and that’s all the use it has had.
Rolling road set up in April 2011 (Tom Airey) and Procomp chassis/suspension set up in June 2011.
Straight, light 529kg (currently carries 10kg of ballast to meet the regs) and still loads of development potential.
Excellent tyres and spares include unused set of “wets” on rims, diff etc
Lightweight custom made (Warwick) trailer with hydraulic brakes also available separately.
£3995.00 – almost free...!

Hi
If you are looking to find a Locost racer in the near future there are one or two currently available but they may have been sold by the time you are
looking to purchase. Ill keep you updated with whats available as the season progresses.
As has been mentioned by the others ( Vultures) there are other formulas within the 750MC that use kitcars such as the F class in RGB and off
course the Sports specials ( old KIT CARS Class ). These formulas allow the driver owner to spend money developing there car if that is what takes
your fancy as the Locost formula has a set off very tightly controlled regulations specifically to keep the running costs down to a realistic level as
an entry formula into motorsport within the 750MC part off that package is the heats and finals so you get double the races for the same entry fee as
other formulas.
Ill send a U2U with some details and contact numbers for various teams and driver who have cars / parts etc etc.
Cheers Matt

Yeah sorry about that ! It also stole my "who"!
Cheers for the input gonna, check rgb out. I have always looked at 7 derived kits so they already float my boat.
Works been slow so funds need to pick up before i can purchase any new toys
Check-in here to get a feel for RGB, its the forum for RGB Drivers.

It looks and sounds belting, but think id rather start with locost then maybe move on to somthing faster : )
Hi
Don't get thinking that the speeds are that different between the RGB / Kitcars and Locost. They carry 20Mph more down the straights but come the
corners the apex speeds are not that different.
I also spot that your in Leicester which is not that far from ourselves. If you fancy a trip down to J6 M6 i have a few locosts around the workshop
that you can cast an eye over to get a feel for whats what on one, Bring a camera if like helps you recall relevant bits and pieces that you may
forget Etc.
