2015 Formula SPEED 2.0 Race Car

The 2015 Formula SPEED 2.0 is a purpose-built open-wheel race car designed to deliver accessible, competitive performance while remaining straightforward to drive and maintain. Built in 2015 and first raced in 2016, this car has been thoroughly gone through and recently repainted, presenting a fresh appearance for its next racing season.

One of the defining characteristics of the Formula SPEED 2.0 is its emphasis on driver accessibility. The car is described as easy to drive fast and easy to maintain, making it an appealing platform for drivers looking for a responsive formula car without unnecessarily complicated maintenance requirements.

Power comes from a 2.0-liter Mazda MZR engine, with the supplied specifications indicating an expected engine life of more than 11,000 miles. The engine is paired with a custom MAZDASPEED racing clutch and a Hewland 6-speed transmission equipped with no-lift shifting capability. This combination provides a purpose-built drivetrain for formula-car competition.

The chassis has been designed around a lightweight racing philosophy, with the supplied race weight listed at 1,325 pounds with driver. Steering is handled through a rack-and-pinion system with a quick-release steering wheel, providing direct control and allowing rapid steering-wheel removal when entering or exiting the cockpit.

Braking is handled by aluminum Wilwood calipers and floating discs, with cockpit-adjustable brake bias allowing the driver to tune front-to-rear braking characteristics according to track conditions and personal preference.

Aerodynamic performance is adjustable at both ends of the car. The front uses a multi-element adjustable wing, while the rear features a dual-element adjustable rear wing. These adjustments allow aerodynamic balance to be configured for different circuits and driver preferences.

The Formula SPEED was designed around the Goodyear Formula Eagle racing tire, providing a dedicated tire platform for the chassis. This particular car includes two sets of newer aluminum wheels as well as one set of new rain tires, giving the package useful dry and wet-weather equipment.

Driver accommodation is another notable feature. The car is designed to accommodate drivers up to approximately 6 feet 5 inches, providing a relatively broad fit range for a formula car.

Overall, this 2015 Formula SPEED 2.0 combines a lightweight chassis, Mazda MZR power, Hewland six-speed transmission, adjustable aerodynamics, Wilwood brakes, quick-release steering, multiple wheel sets, and rain tires into a complete package that has been recently refreshed and repainted.
