A Locost is a high school shop project level of difficulty stand-back-and-squint "replica" of a 50 year old Lotus sports car. I have gobs of aero work to do (fortunately it's my specialty) and right now I'm just getting baseline data, but in my one drive-it-like-you-stole-it hundred mile blast down twisty roads I got 50+ mpg, which ain't bad for a guy having too much fun in a roadster.
