Nice video, and I had lots of fun watching it. One question.... if you move that fast, why isn't that Locost done yet? :-)

[dhempy]

ohh...You cut me deep.

[blackdubsociety]

did you use the rear suspension assembly from the miata?

[dhempy]

Yeah. That saves a bunch of time, particularly for a beginner like me. Also gives a pretty good assurance that it will actually work right out of the box.

I also used the frame rails to mount the rear subframe, which is a bit more unusual. It might add a tiny bit of weight (5 pounds, tops), but makes mounting easy, gives a good spot to mount the rear roll bar tubes, and the upper shock mounts. We'll see if it pans out.

P.S. tell Russ I'm still looking for my seat cushion! He'll know what I mean!

Well done Hempy.
