1958 FORMULA 2 RACE RESULTS |
This series of races began on 3rd March 2008.
To give myself a break from the Avgas F.1 races, I decided to run, concurrently, a series for Formula 2 cars from the same year.
The impetus for this series came when I built my first resin bodied Cooper T.45 and realised that having made one, I could then make many more. The Cooper T.45 was the mainstay of F.2 racing in 1958 and at the time of setting up this new results page, I have nineteeen of them!
Most of the races I am running with these cars actually took place but I am adding several more races to make the series worthwhile.
