As UK is switching to Dunlop tires for Formula Fords (see earlier blog on test results), the Finnish Formula Ford Association is likely to follow. Price discussions seem to be underway, and preliminary estimates put a set at 510€ (w/o VAT), or around 622€ (incl. 22% VAT). This is a tad higher than the AVONs used last year, but given that the Dunlops are radials and should maintain consistent performance a bit longer this seems reasonable. I should note that these are still preliminary indications, and that the discussions will continue. Nevertheless, to ensure our Finnish series is compatible with the international (de facto, UK) regulations, it seems a good idea to switch to Dunlops. This also makes sense given that several drivers are likely to go from the Finnish Championships onto the BRSCC Formula Ford Festival at the season end. Stay tuned for more info as it appears...
