C.
C.1. Definition
A formula for single-seat, open wheel racing cars
based on a standard Volkswagen 1200 Series Type 1, U.S. model sedan (imported by VW)
components, and restrictive in specifications so as to emphasize driver ability rather
than design and preparation of the car.
Formula Vee is a restrictive class. Therefore, any
allowable modifications, changes, or additions are as stated in the Formula Vee
Preparation Rules. There are no exceptions.
No component of the engine, power train, front
suspension, or brakes shall be altered, modified, or changed, nor be of other than VW
manufacture, unless specifically authorized.
Engine components shall be assembled in standard
configuration. Exceeding the wear limits specified in the VW manual or other official
guides is not prohibited provided that tolerances, dimensions, and specifications stated
in the General Competition Rules are met.
