Track Only S2000 Powered Locost

Post by Lonnie-S »

Bring A Trailer has a recently listed Locost 7 powered by a Honda S2000 Engine. The car is in Arizona and is for track use only, not street licensed. He claims he bought the car as an unfinished roller and had a professional outfit finish it. It looks to be well done.

I have no association with the vehicle, owner or Bring A Trailer. I'm just sharing information. You can find it here.

Cheers,
Damn! That front slip angle is way too large and the Ackerman is just a muddle.

While there are certainly things I would have done differently, I agree that it looks to be VERY well done. There are some rather well thought out (and executed) solutions in it too. At $15k so far, for the right buyer, I think that still has plenty of room to keep climbing over the next week.
