- Dickie Meaden tries his hand at Formula Ford, the proving ground for many Formula 1 world champions and race winners.
Part four of the 'How to Drive' series. Watch the full series at motorsportmagazine.com/watch
So glad this car is now in iRacing; And it's an absolute riot to drive.
There is no better single seater racing than FF1600. I raced 7 seasons in this class and then moved to road-based cars - there is no comparison.
More people need to watch this content you guys are generating
All the content you guys generate have no waste. Amazing job. The best racing channel by far. Please keep the good job. Cheers! All the best. From Argentina
Great video and so have shared it for our FF1600 group to enjoy - I first drove a FF1600 in 1968 at Silverstone (Lotus 51)
And with another 100 horsepower, you have what amounts to the kind of car that Graham Hill and Jim Clark won world championships with.
I have been arguing for some time that a series for powerful, modern, wingless single racers can succeed. Ever time I see a FFord, I wonder what it would be like with, two litre V8 or V12 in it.
Im gonna get some money and start modding
With the regulation tires on and mid engine your gonna be driving a death machine
Yeah cars as dangerous enough as it is@@Nicholas44566
Dickie, do you think a Formula Ford makes more sense as a 'track day' car, than spending the same or more on a modified road car?
imo yes :)
No. If you've got one, why not go racing with it.
Why do I think of Enzo Ferrari when I see this bad boi
Great stuff. I want to drive one.
ikr
You should. It's the best thing I've ever driven. It is incredible and quite scary when you are almost at the absolute limit.
Am I the only one here because of iRacing? Really nice video!!

Hello,
A car like this, how much cost?
Well in Europe I think they are about 7000€
@@miguelcastanheira7467 Where can I buy these cars and thanks
@@IGTSH_Senseiakos well, there are websites of buying cars, just search a little bit until you find a car like this on a good price and in a place that you can go see the car and eventually buy it
The Australia FFord website says that a new, rolling chassis (w/ gearbox) is $80000-90000AUD and if you build the engine yourself, that’s another $7000AUD. They did mention that you can get second hand ones for $20000+ AUD.
I’m aware you commented over a year ago but this might be useful info for people who see this thread in the future.
@@the_shadow_11 As someone who is looking to start motorsport in FFORD thanks
240 km/h & more
As challenging drive as an F1, much more than a GT3 like beast.
1'54"450 lap @ Hermanos Rodríguez Mexico on AMS, when a 2018 F1 is 1'14" something on qualifying lap... 40" gap, OK.
on game toca this car very hard to handling..
Lol
