Eligibility of Formula Vauxhall JNR - Mono 1800 only?

[al_sami]

Am I right in that the only series these cars can run in is Mono 1800?

I looked at formula 4 regs and they dont mention Formula Vauxhall JNR's... if anyone knows of other series they can be used in?

I answered this in the F4 Snetterton thread but I guess that its off topic there. As a result, I'll repeat it here:

It depends on which version of the FVJ you are talking about. The original 8 Valve version has raced in F4 invitation class but will not be competitive. It is better off in Mono 1600 where there are a couple racing already against FF 1600s.

The 16 Valve Mk2 version has also raced in the invitation class of F4 - I raced a 16 Valve version a few times in the invitation class about 3 years ago. Should be competitive against a FF Zetec - similar power to weight and tyres. For the same reason, the 16 Valve version is also competive in Mono 1800 where i mostly used to race mine and there are couple of others out. The competition there comes from FF Zetecs and FF 2000 (Pinto) cars.

Which version do you have?

Thanks Andy, I am finalising the purchase of a 16v MKII chassis.
