ATTENTION IN THE PADDOCK

AJ pugliese:

It is with great sadness that we at the FRCCA announce the passing of our founder AJ Pugliese who died yesterday May 13th, although not as active with the club in the last few years he would always be there with the answer to any questions you may of had and his knowledge of formula fords will be something that can not be replaced.

He founded the then RCCA ( Race Car Club of America ) after being frustrated with the high costs of running competitively with the SCCA

He wrote new rules and implemented some small modifications to the cars to keep the running costs down and also introduced a hard compound spec tire, all this was to make racing affordable to all that wished to drive a race car.

Those rules and regulations are still in place today and certainly made it possible for this writer to live a dream of racing a Formula car .

He will be greatly missed by all of us here at the FRCCA

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all his family and friends

Next up and coming up quick is the next event at Palmer Motorsports Park in Ma on May 18 and 19 go to motorsportreg.com and register for the event ( search EMRA events )
