The United States F3 series,second year to be, was officially cancelled today. The series backer pulled out a couple weeks ago and has been in question since.

Many of the teams started to try sell their equipment when the backer pulled out. However most other series have already started or about to start next weekend so it probably is going to impact 20 or so drivers I would say. Lots of man hours down thats for sure.
In America the three top road racing series are: (in no particular order) USF2000, Skip Barber Pro, Toyota Atlantics, Hopefully they might be able to find there way in one of those series. Or possibly another F3000 series in another country. Rob Hogenmiller rob@nationalkarting.com www.nationalkarting.com |

I always feel so sorry for the people involved when things like this happen. It's going to make this year a whole lot more complicated for a lot of people, and especially making the next few weeks very stressful.

20 or so drivers, thought there was only about 10 drivers in 2000 , more people were obviously geared up for the 2nd season of USF3......still, in my view, no sad loss - f2000, barber dodge, toyota atlantic,indy lights, cart and irl, surely the yanks arent that greedy
