If the cars and drivers end up being more LeMons than LeMans...I would NOT be going out there in a Locost.
Interesting move for SCCA though. It wouldn't make sense to me personally to build, maintain, and house a car with all of the required safety gear specifically for this form of racing, but would use it to have another place to compete with a car classed for another sanctioning body. I hope it is successful for them, and helps encourage them to continue trying new ideas that differ from the status quo.
