Formula Ford Drivers Reach Out

The Formula Ford drivers of BC have put together a website aimed at informing both up and coming and current racers about the merits of racing a Formula Ford in the province of BC.

The website claims that there is “no other class in the price range with the driving feel characteristic of pre-electronics Formula One days. With its high-revving engine and an easily reconfigured gearbox that allows the perfect set of ratios for any track, Formula Fords give the driver the feel of true race car, something that is not easily found in other race classes.”

If you’re new to road racing and are searching for the right race car and class or are a seasoned racer weighing entry into open wheel racing, take a look at the Formula Ford BC website.
