TEAM CANADA verses TEAM UNITED STATES of AMERICA
The 50th anniversary is the right time for Canadian and American Formula Fords to show national pride.
Canadian & American national teams will defend their nation’s honour on two of North America’s iconic race tracks, where Formula Fords flourished in their hey day, at:
VARAC’s Vintage Grand Prix at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park (Mosport) on June 13-16, 2019 &
VRG’s Watkins Glen event on October 10-13, 2019.
Race cars will be eligible in three classes: Historic and Club Fords, conforming to Monoposto rules, and Post Club Fords, as raced in VRG’s Formula Ford Challenge Series.
Each National team will accrue points at both events and a Champion will be declared upon completion of the Watkins Glen weekend. Top Americans in class will be recognized at CTMP and top Canadians will be recognized at the Glen.
In addition, there will be three individual Class Champions, based on points scored within their class. The highest point getter will be the overall champion. A tie will be broken. Points will be weighted towards participating and finishing. In order to qualify for individual awards divers must compete in both events, so the points after CTMP will be tentative.
The races will be run concurrently with the Monoposto run group at CTMP and with the VRG Formula Ford Challenge Series at the Glen. We expect a separate run group for our Feature Race at the VARAC VGP with sufficient entries.
The Can-Am Challenge Cup is in no way designed to conflict with the VARAC Monoposto group or VRG’s FF Challenge series. It is extra fun to help increase interest amongst the Vintage Formula Ford community in this, FF’s 50th anniversary.
Registration for the VARAC Vintage Grand Prix is now open at www.motorsportreg.com . All entries received before January 1, 2019 will receive a $100.00 discount.
More information will be released as it becomes available.
