Hi,
The Right Coast Formula F Series presented by American Pen Company is proud to offer all Formula F and Club Formula F cars an opportunity to celebrate the golden anniversary of the best class of race car (in our very humble opinion) ever conceived. We are now about 16 days from load in for the The Golden Part 1 50th Anniversary of Formula F race at Mid Ohio.
Registration has been open for quite some time. You can go to www.rcffs.org; go to Schedule page and scroll down to the Mid Ohio event and “Register for this event”. Or you can go directly to MotorsportReg.com and go to the FRP – Mid Ohio event and register there. Select RCFFS when you register. This is an SCCA sanctioned event so all you need is your regular SCCA competition license. We also have a weekend schedule on the RCFFS website.
While you are on the Right Coast website checking out the Mid Ohio event, take a look at Jim Kearney’s incredible guide to driving Mid Ohio. It is worth a couple of reads if you want to learn how to go fast at MO.
We believe that this event and the Golden Part 2 at Road Atlanta later this season will be the only two events where ANY Formula F or Club Formula F, regardless of what resides in the engine bay, can come and race to commemorate this significant anniversary for our class. Ford Cortina or Kent, Honda Fit, slicks or treads, makes no difference, all are welcome.
This is an all purpose built race car weekend as our hosts will be Formula Race Promotions and their F1600, F2000 and Formula Atlantic classes as well as the Formula Vee Challenge Cup Series. There has been a very recent schedule change and load in begins at 5 PM on Thursday, June 27. The track sponsored twilight test session on Thursday evening has been cancelled.
On Friday evening we will have a pizza party sponsored by the fine folks from American Pen Company. We will have liquid refreshments available as well. We will also have our drawings for corporate partner awards including two drawings for half sets of Hoosier tires.
As is usual with our Right Coast/FRP weekends, we will have two practice sessions on Friday, Saturday morning qualifying and Race 1 of the weekend on Saturday afternoon. We will have another evening social on Saturday. On Sunday we will have Race 2 and the Golden Part 1 50th Anniversary of Formula F in the US feature race on Sunday afternoon.
The Hoosier Tire folks have sent us a form that they would like all of us to use to order tires. If you are racing with us and want to get a copy of the form, please e-mail me at joemffracer@comcast.net.
So we look forward to having you come and race with us at Mid Ohio in this very special year for Formula F.
Thanks,
Joe Marcinski
