I am one of those guys that is trying to sort through tons of great info and make as intelligent a decision as I possibly can. My first decision is that I'm still confused and need a little extra direction. So any advice or direction you can give would be greatly appreciated. My situation is that I am looking for a car that is going to competitive, at least at the regional level and not get left in the dust at a national race. I have a couple years in a formula vee and have spent the last couple years doing driver's eds with the PCA clubs. I would like to come back to formula cars, race on a more consistant basis, and certainly do it on a budget. I have read the boards from the FF site and this site, and have seen there are varying opinions on where to start and even more controversy regarding the type of engines and even a new formula. There are a couple of 90-95 FCs that are on the site and within my price range that I would consider. However, when you dig into the boards, some of you suggest that you start at the FF level. I'm not opposed to that at all. (although wings are pretty cool) I'm looking for a good reliable car that I can go out with and at least have a chance of finishing well. I certainly realize that there is still alot to be learned about driving and my limitations. So finishing and having fun are my hot buttons. Finishing well would be the icing. If any of you have any advice and or advice on a particular car that would be great. Thanks for you time. Fl.
