Locost R1- I'm back in a Seven!

[spitfun]

I sold my autocross Locost a little while back and missed it so I picked this up to fill the void! The picture with the clamshell fenders is what it looked like when I first got it (I think it is a nice transformation). It is R1 powered and has chain drive,quite a blast to drive. I picked up a little trailer and next year I will bring my slicks to the autocrosses and have some fun... Rich

Holy Carp! Does one chain run all the way from the trans to the diff? That's a lot of chain. Better check with the insane bikers for the bst cahin in the world. Or, is there an idler in between. Looks like fast fun.

There are 2 chains,with 2 sprockets next to each other to connect them-from diff to 1st sprocket,then from 2nd sprocket to trans. Rich
