With the upcoming Australian Formula Future Titles at St George this Sunday we have been getting some enquiries regarding just what is this FORMULA FUTURE racing all about and how can kids get into it.
Basically Formula Future is the "junior" class of our sport catering for 8 to 16 years old
Formula Futures race in three classes based on age and horsepower rating.
The J1 Class is for the youngest of our racers 8 years old and above. These racers may use an engine of up to 6hp manufacturers rating.
The J2 Class is for racers aged 10 years & older. These racers may use an engine of up to 10hp manufacturers rating.
The J3 Class is for racers aged 12 years and older up to 16 years old. These racers may use an engine of up to 15hp manufacturers rating.
Formula Future racing is conducted under handicap rules so it is not necessarily the fastest boat in the class that wins rather the most consistent driver.
