Yea, I'm a little biased. lol. But I'm not on a licensing agreement or anything. They can sell the one they sold or 2000, and its the same to me. I designed it for myself, but decided they needed it.

When I was looking for a Cobra, on must have was IRS. Lone Star was my choice over all the others, except for that one big problem. I studied their frame and a few race car suspension design books for about 6 months, then the Locost forum and a few others and decided I could do this, and did. I also spent a lot of time deconstructing the T bird and Jag IRS designs and didn't like some of the compromises and ways forces were applied, and came up with my own true double wishbone.
