Hi,
The Right Coast Formula F Series is very pleased to announce its six-race schedule for 2018. We are very fortunate to again be able to race at six challenging tracks that lend themselves to great racing.
· June 2, 3 & 4 New Jersey Motorsports Park – Lightning Circuit – South Jersey Region SCCA
· June 29, 30 July 1 Mid Ohio Sports Car Course – Formula Race Promotions (USAC?)
· August 11 & 12 Pittsburgh International Race Complex – Steel Cities Region SCCA
· August 24, 25 & 26 Summit Point Raceway – Formula Race Promotions (USAC?)
· September 15 & 16 Watkins Glen International – Finger Lakes Region SCCA
· November 2, 3 & 4 Road Atlanta, ARRC – Atlanta Region SCCA
Our season kicks off with the South Jersey Region of SCCA on June 1-3 at New Jersey Motorsports Park on the Lightning Circuit. The event will be as it has been for the past two seasons. We will be racing as part of the NJRRS Regional race with stand alone RCFFS racing as part of the program.
Our second event is over the early-in-2018 Fourth of July holiday weekend, June 29-30 & July 1, at Mid-Ohio. Again we will be with Formula Race Promotions as a support event for the Pro F1600/F2000/FAtlantic series. It looks like this will be another all formula car weekend with the Formula Vee Challenge Cup series joining in as well.
Event number three will be with the Steel Cities Region of SCCA at the Pittsburgh International Race Complex on August 11 & 12. This weekend will be very similar to the first weekend at NJMP in that we will be racing as part of the SCCA Regional race with stand alone RCFFS racing as part of the program. The full PIRC circuit is just spectacular with lots of elevation changes, several great passing zones and a challenging set of esses.
Weekend number four will be August 24-26, at the recently completely repaved Summit Point Raceway with the Woodbridge Karting Club and Formula Race Promotions, as in 2017. Summit Point is the ancestral home of DUFFUS/Right Coast and has long been one of everyone’s favorites. The Summit Point Circuit provides another venue that lends itself to great racing. A challenging track with a couple of great passing opportunities and a good mix of slow, medium and fast corners. We also get to see the great racing in the pro F1600/F2000/FAtlantic series, and the karts are spectacular.
The fifth race weekend takes place on the historical Watkins Glen International for the Fun One on September 15-16. We will be on the regional race program with the Finger Lakes Region of SCCA. This too will be regional racing with stand alone RCFFS racing as well. The FV Challenge Group is also on the program. The 3.4-mile Grand Prix course on Saturday and the ultra-fast 2.4 mile so called NASCAR course on Sunday, two tracks over one weekend !
The sixth and final race of the 2018 Right Coast season takes place on November 2-4 at Road Atlanta with the Atlanta Region of SCCA at the American Road Race of Champions. This will be the Prelude to the 50th Anniversary of Formula F in the US in 2019. We will be racing as part of the ARRC championship weekend program with stand alone RCFFS racing on Sunday. Once again, we will be on one of the destination tracks in the country and certainly one of the most challenging race tracks anywhere. This offers a great opportunity to familiarize yourself with the track that the 50th Anniversary event takes place on November 1-3, 2019.
We hope you are as excited about this race schedule as we are and that you will join us at all six in 2018.
Thanks,
Joe Marcinski
