The chassis—with its elegant carbon and aluminium honeycomb construction, striking aerodynamic efficiency, raised nose, and protective cockpit, it has the look and feel of a scaled-down Formula one car.  The cars efficient power and light weight make it particularly nimble on the track.

Designed to be a useful learning tool for young drivers around the world, the car maintains driver safety as a priority. The monocoque, crash box, and roll hoop all meet the strict FIA safety standards applied to Formula Three.

The cars are powered by a 2.0-litre Renault Clio engine. This four-cylinder, 16-valve engine develops 186 BHP. Mated to a six speed, sequential gear box featuring a twin-plate hydraulic clutch, the engine’s power is applied though a limited slip differential.

The cars are slowed by four large vented brake disks, each with four-piston callipers to ensure powerful and reliable braking. Drivers are able to adjust brake bias from the cockpit for additional control.

The suspension is designed for easy adjustments—to suit any race circuit—and is mounted to the chassis in a way that prevents it from perforating the monocoque in the event of an accident.

In all, it is a very well thought out racecar and race series that demands the most from driver and teams.  Modeled after the very successful European Formula Renault series that has spawned drivers such as Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Masa, the American counterpart is poised to be the stage for talented drivers in our nation that are looking to move up the ranks in professional auto racing.  Watch for Welch Racing and Derek DeBoer as they will be teaming up to become an unstoppable force in the Formula TR Pro Series.
