Festival
Savannah, GA - September 1, 2012

The United States Formula Vee racing community will
celebrate its 50th birthday at Savannah’s Roebling Road Raceway
April 5-7, 2013. With the support of the Sports Car Club of
America (SCCA), this race will follow the “Festival” format
during which hundreds of racers and their families will enjoy
this racing milestone and the historic Brundage Cup.
Held every five years, the event draws drivers and cars
from around the globe as well as the “Who’s-Who” of Formula Vee
racing. It will feature
six race groups covering the spectrum of current and vintage Vee,
Formula First, and Super Vees.
“This is going to be a great event for a class that has
rich history, tradition and unparalleled competition,” says 2007
Brundage Cup Winner, Jeremy Grenier of Summit Point, WV.
Close to historic Savannah, Roebling Road offers camaraderie,
the occasional feverish race-car repair, and a challenging
2.02-mile asphalt road course.
“It doesn't take a lot of money to race a Vee, but it
takes a lot of heart, a competitive spirit, and no small amount
of fortitude to race four-wide down into corner one,” says Lisa
Noble, iconic National competitor from Manhattan, KS.
