The FV cars are nice for their simplicity but most are not built for larger guys.

A step up is the Super Vee. They have better suspension and larger engines. Unfortunately, most FSV cars are expensive due to their collectible status. For about the same money as a FSV, you can get into a newer Formula Ford.

This website has LOTS of info on FV, FSV, and Formula First.
FORMULAVEE.ORG • Index page

Also, check out SR Racing: Race Car Supply

Both sites have classifieds to help you get into the Vee of your dreams.


This is me in the Zink on a wet day.

It will be a few years before I can afford another car... I've got a racecar to finish yet...

I'm about 5'10" 150... Think I'd fit?

I would not hesitate to do it. That beast needs to run on the open road, and there's a whole generation of young kids out there who need the inspiration of seeing it drive past them as they ride in the back of their folks' minivan.

Go.

Beautiful car... looks great without the ubiquitous stripes... they obscure the design of the car, IMO... wish more people would forego 'em. *thumbs up*

Apologies for the late post but this reminded me of something from many years back. It also may be posted in this or some other thread. Does anybody recall the "Super-Chauvinist Denbiegh"? It might have been a (now defunct) 'Sports Car Graphic' magazine's version of the Cyclops. It has been so long & one's mind is the 2nd thing to go. I need some help.

Cheers
