Default Open Wheel to Wheel Racing Video

So ........
I hope this note find you and yours' well and stay safe ............

During this "surreal" time and while Sheltered-in-Place, every couple of days I have been sending videos to friends with subject line (i.e) "CoVIDEO19-4 - Endurance --- A Porsche In-House Movie" (now up to 10)

A friend who has a McLaren and an open wheel race car loved one of the last and said I should share it here "CoVIDEO19-9 - Formula F Nat'l Championship Race "
Asked if he was sure ("Hell yes - They'll love it - better than watching I-Race!") so it follows.

Background:

The Car~ 1985 Swift db-1 Formula Ford - built in USA/SoCal and purchased the same year ........
Specs -https://www.apexspeed.com/community/...t_roadtest.pdf

Driver - Jason Generotti - "Built" in 1985 (same year as the car)
Mechanical Engineer w/ MBA - hockey player - Designs and Builds advance defensive weapon systems and sub-systems - think "anti- I.E.D." protecting G.I.s.

Event - SCCA North American Championship (Canadian's and others participate) Dayton International Speedway - Jason's Rookie Race at the event

Second - International Broadcast (The Grid- Mobile 1) very brief but well done with post race interviews)

I hope you all enjoy -----
