Evans Motorsport launches into Formula Ford
Evans Motorsport will make their National Formula Ford Championship debut at the up coming Norton 360 Sandown Challenge.
The team will campaign two Mygale chassis in selected rounds of the highly competitive open wheeler series.
The upcoming event will see Trent Harrison and Martin Short piloting the Evans Motorsport machines.
The Australian Formula Ford Championship allows young drivers to gather experience and develop their motor racing skills, and has been instrumental in assisting the careers of many of Australia’s top drivers, such as Craig Lowndes, Jamie Whincup and Mark Webber, to progress into open wheeler racing in Europe or V8 Supercar in Australia.
Team owner Joshua Evans is thrilled that Evans Motorsport will be competing in the championship.
“Australian Formula Ford always provides fantastic racing.” Evans said.
“The drivers are young, fast and very talented and they come from all over Australia, and even New Zealand to compete. I have been looking at entering my own team in the championship for some time now, and after witnessing the racing and the professionalism of the series – the decision was easy.”
The assistance both the drivers and I have received from Mygale Australia has made it possible for me to build the team at the most professional level. Mygale chassis, from a number of different teams, have won every race this year. They are comprehensively the best engineered Formula Fords in the world today.
“We realize it will be a great challenge to be on the pace right away, but our team has a wealth of experience in various aspects of the motor racing industry and we believe that once we find our feet, we will be able to achieve some strong results.”
