Hey
just read your post and thought you might be interested in some info. I am currently building a car (74 super) for the TCRA under 2.2 challenge class. I have been very interested in FV for a few years but did you know that there is a new class that is trying to get off the ground called Formula First. this new class might or might not replace FV in about 10yrs. did you also know that the engine can cost about $7,000 and the trans can run about $5,000 also depending on where u live parts can be scarce that is one of the reasons for the FF idea. anyway E-mail me and we can talk alot more. I have already started on the front beam for the FF car any way ill get u some linnks to some good FV forums and the FV site that has the rules for FF.
