    Default Looking for fellow A.P.A.L. Vintage Vee racers

    Hi,

    I just got myself a "new" race car. An A.P.A.L. FVee and was wondering if there are any other APAL racers around here in the US?

    If so, please contact me at Yves@HistoricRaceCar.com.

    Thanks,

    Yves

    Was this the car on craigs list out of charlotte?

    While there were quite a few made there is only one other one running in Germany right now. We have no idea how another of the cars ended up in NC.

    We are really excited about having another variety of Formula Vee running with us in VSCDA. This is a great series with average entries of around 20 cars per race this year.

    For any other ApexSpeed member who are interested the VSCDA run a 5 races FV series each year at the following tracks:

    Gingerman
    Black Hawk
    Autobahn
    Grattan
    and Road America.

    There are cars available for sale within all budgets - and often for rent as well.

    Entry fees are reasonable and track time is plentiful.

    Typically the Vees will have their own race groups for the weekend.

    We have social events for the FV drivers at each race weekend.

    Anyone interested please visit.
