I took a look at the new CRB and was surprised to see that several new types of cars were added to the new catch-all FX class, including Formula FX Ireland (looks like an FE), FRP Zetecs (I guess now any non-Pinto FC can compete in the class if they want), the defunct Pro Super Vee, and Formula Renault 2.0.
Now I understand that car classes run their course and this new idea has merit on getting cars out of garages and on a track, but I'm concerned at the speed disparity. FR2.0 is a near-FA car, similar to (maybe even faster than) a Pro Mazda. Same with a Super Vee, especially with modern tires and suspension bits. All SVs are at least 35 years old; do these aluminum monocoque cars even meet current safety specs?
I know all the cars must be ready to have a data logger hung on them at any time for use by The Club, but I don't see how this motley bunch will ever approach parity. Perhaps someday we have most of our open-wheel cars in FX1 and FX2 classes?
