Video: Formula Ford 1600 - Tarling Charges Through the Pack
Share this Article
Some of the best racing in the UK in recent seasons has been in the HSCCs Formula Ford races, and here you can enjoy series ace Richard Tarling having an outing in Australia at a sun-kissed Phillip Island. This is the first part of the race and the video does end with the field behind the safety car, but the opening lap is like something from a video game and by our counting Richard in a Quest F86 (we think) passes 11 cars before the exit of the first corner!
Ae ever, a quick driver starting from the back of the grid is always going to be entertaining. Enjoy the footage - the rest of the race is on the link below…but it doesn’t end well.
