In the 1980s the Formula Ford Festival had entries from around 200 drivers. They had testing all week. The paddock was literally jam-packed with cars, trailers, motorhomes, caravans. They needed 8 heats, all with full grids, then quarter finals, semis and the Grand Final. These days it's uncompetitive and the paddock is almost empty. They need to stop calling this meeting the FF Festival.

I want to get to formula v

Too bad, looked like fun until then.

Great drive buddy! I enjoyed that - now subbed 🙂👍

Unlucky mate, great driving otherwise. I would love to get into this category of racing but I have no idea how to. Do I need to keep karting and hope to get spotted by a team or should I try some kind of arrive and drive

The car was driving you at the hairpin almost every lap and put you in the place to get taken out. I was enjoying the dice otherwise. Well done!

I was standing on the inside of Graham Hill bend and saw an Ammonite stuck on the back of your car 😭Looked like a baulky gearchange issue at Clearways too?

Very clean and not your fault. You’ll get them next time! 💪🏻

First one pushed you off, second one finished you off. Not much you could have done about that 🤦

Just a follow up; The tire went on to win the race, setting a new lap record along the way!

Really entertaining, thanks for posting. Thanking all the marshalls at the end makes you a complete driver, cudos to you.

well done

Good drive...l am guessing they are the Irish spec tyre with a lot of understeer. Only went to Ireland once in the early 70's in a Formula Ford as support to Formula 2 race. It was at Pheonix Park, which was literally a park with benches, lamp posts and all....it was a fantastic place to race. Could not afford to go back which was a shame.

That is redgate

Totally wasn't expecting that! Enjoyable to watch up to then

Unusual for you that Ben.

Unlucky mate, what happened at the first corner? Seen it a few times and you can’t really see on the right hand side. That’s unfortunate at the end, Danny should have given you more space so you don’t have to go onto the sausage kerb. From then on you couldn’t do anything else.

that blue car is a fucking wanker!!

Nice drive mate. You got close a couple of times! Shame about hitting the limiter at 14'25''? Looked like you were working hard!

Very enjoyable watching that Vee dance around, thanks.

Great drive....good to see nothing has really changed in Vee, since l was doing it in the 70's.....great racing...fun to watch.

Great drive! Well deserved after the bad luck the previous day. Those Hoosiers look slippery!!

Great drive Ben!!

Well done Ben what a great season 👍🏻

A great drive in very difficult conditions....enjoyed watching it.

nice driving! do you heel toe when downshifting or its not necessary?

I raced in England from 1971-1982 in F/f....F/Vee...a few Saloon races in Mexico series plus 3 years on bikes. Came to America and drove Sports 2000, Ford 2000 on both road and ovals and some Atlantic and finally retired in 2005. I always loved Vee s which is why l watch all the on-board of the series now. Of course most of the tracks are very different now but enjoy watching.

l can assure you it is not only amateurs who do that. l have seen it happen from F1 down over the years. Never had a wheel come off but had a missing break pad.....that was interesting.

Very impressive ,good speed down the straight

Cheers Pete! Yes, left hander was unsighted with Bucko in front - was aiming to go round the outside, should have gone the opposite I think. Don't know why the car was a little loose, other than the oil leak!

Nice spin mate! Lucky tim didnt have you! Car looked more tail happy than usual? you were driving the socks off it! Shame you lost touch with bucko, tim etc...

Why did you raise your hand at the end of the first lap?

Haha I wish!

Nobody saw - just act like it was intentional! ;)

Awesome move at 13:53! :D Car didn't seem to be too great around Clark Curve, though? Well done!
