Luego locost race car supply+spares

Hi all having just spoken to steve hill who asked me to pass the
info on here. That although Luego has been sold to new owners the
locost and trike project's still remain as was. It is just the Viento
project that has been sold whith the Luego name. The suply of locost
race kits and parts are unafected. So dont get confused with what is
now called Luego. What was Luego is at the moment nameless.

Steve hill can be contacted on 01733-352682. For spares or kits
required.


Cheers matt (procomp)

Ps the new owners are Bob lord and his (i belive) brother joe AkNA cctkitcars.

How ghey!

So my Luego Velocity is now:

The car formerly known as Luego Velocity!

This reminds me of PRINCE

Oh well - in all fairness - it probably adds to the value

More to the point, why are you advertsing the competition?

Well, that answers the question then: they're called "Ben Lord now owns what used to be called Viento, but doesn't have a different name, and is now called the same thing as before, which was/is Luego". Although I could be wrong because there was a name change of some sort that I didn't quite catch.

Anyways, the man above is now the person to talk to. That, I did get.

Well i havent got a clue who owns what then. All i know is that steve and dean are still supplying a kit and spares for a car that is able to run in the 750mc locost championship. As to what that car is now known as that i also dont know.

This post was only put up so that the owners of the existing luego race cars knew where to get spares such as wishbones ect. Which after a wet practice at combe there is a need for as one or two had a meeting with the tyre wall.

If the new owners are interested in the race side of the locost it might be a good idea to introduce your self somewhere so that your customers currently racing have got at least some idea of what is going on other than the total confusion that exists at the moment.

But as i originaly said if the existing racers want or need chasiss wishbones ect. Then steve and dean are able to supply to keep you running as brands hatch is now less than two weeks away.

Cheers matt (only trying to help by passing a message on)
