Hi, I've just sold my dirtbike and looking to get into Formula Vee. It seems like a cheap, fun and competitive form of racing!
I've done a fair bit of research but figured it doesn't hurt to ask around, so does anyone here race fv? thoughts?
cheers
Anyone into Formula Vee?

Best 4 seasons of my life.
Vic championship is very competitive and the national series is awesome.
The "Nationals" are on in Tassie this year and I expect it to be a nail-biter.
I guarantee you'll never look back.
Cheers,
Zane.

Cheers Zane, I'm really looking forward to it!
I'm having a bit of trouble finding car's for sale, there don't seem to be many advertised on the internet.
Do you think I would have better luck if I go to a few races and chat to some owners? There doesn't seem to be much in the way of information on the internet which is a bit of a shame.

Does anyone know what sort of budget you need to be looking at racing these?

Capital outlay ranges from $8k-$40k.
Yearly expense for a 6 round championship including fuel, accom, top-end's, tyres, entries, parts and consumables is at least $8k-$10k.
