    Correct, same as all Formula Ford. Also check what tires your club allows, some clubs spec a brand/size

    Another thing to ask your organization is whether or not they allow aluminum wheels or if they require original style steel wheels. I think most allow aluminum, but check to be sure.

    Default Rules: Check with your club !

    With all questions: John is correct. You MUST check with the sanctioning body ( club ) that you intend to race with. There are variations across the country.

    While Monoposto and a number of clubs (but not all) require steel wheels on the vintage FF's, I think you'll find that alloy wheels are universally allowed in Club Ford.

    To aid in your research of the organizations' rules where you may race, the website for the Vintage Motorsports Council, www.the-vmc.com, has convenient inks to all its member organizations. In turn each organization's rules are usually posted on their respective websites.

    Default Silly question ?

    Well...not really. People new to racing or new to the "vintage" racing scene need to be brought up to speed. At least he was smart enough by asking before buying or committing himself.
