Over the years it has provided hundreds of young men and some young women, in South Africa, the opportunity to compete in Motor Sport at National Championship level. The Formula has always been run by a band of true Motor Sport enthusiasts. This has ensured that it never deviated from its original objective. To provide close competitive racing, at an affordable cost, in real racing cars. The tremendous support for the Formula today, shows that the need for such a class of racing still exists and has in fact done so throughout the existence of Formula Vee racing in this country.
 The idea behind Formula Vee racing was born in the United States of America. It all began when Hurbert Brundage conceived the idea of a single seater racing car, powered by a Volkswagen Beetle engine and using a number of other Volkswagen components. The first prototype, was built for Hurbert Brundage, by Enrico Nardi in 1959 and has been lovingly restored by Paul Schiemer, for Herbert's son Jan Brundage. |
