Why does goes like stink seem out of line for Light Sport? You’re limited to 120 Knots maximum level flight. That’s not fast to me…My Piper goes faster than that!

You can build a Sonex for less than 27K if you use the Aerovee or even
a Corvair conversion. The Sonex goes like stink on 80 HP and is still
Light Sport compliant with the Jab 3300 on it.
In another life I did training as an AFI with USUA and used the
Challenger for a trainer. They are great fun to fly although a bit
squirrelly with the doors on. The Challenger is not a fast airplane so
they're not so great for cross-country flying, although many have been
flown for long distances.
