Does anyone know of any self build single seater or plans for the same.

Why not adapt the locost plans. It'd be very simple to narrow it, and all the hard work has been done with designing the suspension properly.....well, almost!

Agree with Rorty - would be simple BUT you'll be sitting on the propshaft so quite a bit higher.

Some of the old (50's) racing cars got round this by running the prop down the outside if the car (not aesthetically pleasing/complex to achieve/what will SVA man say). Could replicate 50's style car, which would be nice.

Alternatively go mid engine - contact one of the many on here going mid engine or possibly look at Tiger Sportscars who are doing a replica of the ERA HSS which looks fabulous, though don't know if they are planning on "road legalising" it.
