Next weekend brings what will no doubt be the biggest formula car event on this year’s Monoposto calendar. Road America is a great venue, and the WeatherTech International Challenge is a great event.
This year the 55th anniversary of Formula Ford is being celebrated with two special run groups. One is for Historic Formula Fords and another is for Club Fords. All together there are over 60 cars in these two groups. In addition to these Classic cars there are 7 Formula Bs entered.
There are 47 wings and slicks cars on the entry list led in count by super Vees, then Formula Atlantic, F5000 and Indy Lights. All-in-all there will be great racing in most of the Monoposto classes.
The entire track was repaved before the beginning of racing in the 2023 season. Over the past 18 months it has matured well. In Monoposto’s visit here earlier this year it became clear that faster lap times and great racing are achievable on the new surface.
In addition to the racing, the weekend schedule is full of non-racing activities from road car and race car concours to a race car parade into downtown Elkhart Lake. The total car entry count for the weekend is well over 400! Because of all the competition for attention due to the activities there will not be a Monoposto party.
