We’re hoping this previously untested, experimental method of driver selection will ultimately bring us championship glory and that our model will be rolled out to NASCAR, Indy & eventually, Formula 1!
The Cars:
Formula Sheane cars are all mechanically identical and the engines and gearboxes are sealed at the factory. They produce in the region of 140bhp and weigh less then 600kg's
Formula Sheane is the fastest one-make formula in the country, lapping Mondello in fifty-six seconds and Kirkistown in sixty-one. They have a top speed of around 150 MPH and will hit 60 MPH in under four seconds.
We'd love to see you at one of the events so why not come on down, bring the family for a great day out and enjoy one of the fastest, most exciting classes in Irish motorsport!
