US and Canadian Formula B programs

Trois Rivieres 1973 program coverFormula B was developed in 1965 and ran as a Professional championship from 1967 to 1972. It was adopted by Canada in 1968 and was their national championship from 1971 to 1973. Canada moved to Formula Atlantic in 1974 and the US adopted the same rules in 1975, but retained the name Formula B at amateur level for several more seasons.

Do you have a program from one of these races and would you be willing to send a scan or photocopy of the entry list?

The main information we need from programs is just that entry list as it typically contains details of cars, entry numbers, drivers, entrants and often also car colours and drivers' home towns. If you find other articles in the program that might help us identify individual cars, we'd be very grateful for those too.

Please contact Allen if you have a copy of any of the outstanding programmes and would be willing to provide a scan or a photocopy of the entry list.

Prior to 1969, The Professional Formula B series raced with Formula A in the Continental Championship. From 1969 to 1972, Formula B had a separate championship. In 1973 and 1974, only a handful of Professional races were held before the SCCA adopted Formula Atlantic rules for 1975.
