I agree. I'm a poor college student racing my old zink in solo. The car is
super fast and i'm guessing alot easier to work on than the formula fords. I
had most of my car apart and was able to put it back together in one week. We
may be able to add dampers and motorcycle engines cheaply, but don't forget
we'd be making a very simple car complex. I'm VP of the pennstate auto club
right now, and my car has been generating alot of interest among the members
because of how helpful the other FM drivers are and how simple the car is.

about what the class should do to make it better.I really have to be honest
trying to make the class better is not putting bike motors in them and putting
shocks and springs and all that crap on them. That's what they have FF,FC,FA,FV
and all those other classes for that's what makes F500 different.
This class is not for everyone but it is for all ages that want to race and not
go broke doing it.My dad has been saying for years and years that this class is
the best bang for the buck and when I was younger I really didn't care because
I ran circle track on other peoples money. Now I have rebuilt my Dads old 86
red devil and I have been doing solo with it.Since I have been spending my
money on this I would have to say that he is right.I would like in the future
to get a F500 that I can club race and run against my ole man.
With that said all this talk I think the class is just fine the way it is. Let
the people that want bike motors they can go to Sports racer or this F1000.Most
people that have cars that race don't want to have to buy a hole new motor and
cut there car all apart to make it legal.I know we can still get motors that we
can buy and people are still building cars.As people always say if it ain't
broke done fix it.The class ain't broke just needs a new edge to put it on the
map.A cool exciting marketing plan.This is a class that I can afford to race
and maintain I just need to money to get the car to go races and that's what I
saving up for so I can add to the number of cars..
