I actually live 20 minutes from the Lincoln AirPark (nationals site). I own a Locost and would not consider running in the nationals. I consider my car a very stock 7. 150hp, street tires etc..... Even "local" events here are becoming less attractive for stockish 7's due to the problems listed in previous posts. The highly modified 7's show up at even local events, probably because of the venue. When possible I show up for local events, with no illusions about being competative. It would be nice to compete in a class where my car had a chance of being competative with a good driver(not me.:blush:)
