Dump your zetec! apparently the USF2000 will be powered by Mazda
The following was posted on the new (IRL series) USF2000.com site in a public shared folder. Albeit difficult to find, but very public.
It's fairly obviously the layout concept for the USF2000 site. Notice the series logo, sporting a large mazda badge.
You make your own call but it sure looks like the zetec isn't going to be the power plant of choice for this series.
I've posted a link to it, below. I've also saved it to another location and posted a secondary link as I'm SURE the primary one will be deleted pretty quickly.
So Dan, what the deal? Whoever designed your site just got really creative and thought that incorporating mazda's logo into your's would just "tickle you pink"? Or more like you'll be incorporating a mazda engine into your series? Lemme guess, your cars will be the mazda "factory team" cars right?

FYI don't leave work in progress and stuff you don't want getting out on unsecured directories on your webserver. It's just bad form.
I can't wait to see the spin from this. :thumbsup:

October 29, 2009 News[SIZE=2]Formulino: Entry-Level Dallara to Make USA Debut at Sebring

The Dallara Formulino is easily converted to three different configurations

The newly-created Dallara Formulino ("little Formula" in Italian) is set to make its North American debut via a test at Sebring International Raceway on November 9th.
Designed and built as an entry-level formula car for use by both racing schools and championships, the Dallara Formulino has an emphasis on durability, reliability and economy. It is a unique concept in the motorsport world, as the same basic car can easily be updated in three steps from a BASE version to a PRO version, with no need to source separate chassis and engine suppliers.
Conforming to the 2008 F3 FIA crash test regulations - making it as safe as a Dallara F3 car - and featuring the Hewland tried and trusted FTR gearbox, the car can go from a from a simple no wing or diffuser configuration (BASE version), to a car with the same suspension and wide range of suspension and aerodynamic configurations of an F3 car (PLUS and PRO versions).
The car that will be tested at Sebring will feature a Mountune 2-litre Duratec engine, with horsepower ranging from 170 bhp in the BASE version to 250 in the PRO version.
