AFJA - Association

Australian Formula Junior Association

Historic car racing in Australia is divided into groups of cars from different eras. Formula Junior is contained in both group L and M which encompasses a variety of cars mostly incompatible with the restrictive regulations of Formula Junior. This situation encouraged historic car owners to adopt later modifications unsuitable to their car for competition purposes, which in turn destroyed the unique value of this international car. To arrest the trend and take advantage of similar interest overseas, a group of owners proposed the forming of an association.

At a meeting of owners held 18th April 1998 it was resolved to form an association with a potential membership of 80 known Formula Junior car owners in Australia. Then at a subsequent meeting held 9th March 2007 it was resolved to incorporate the association, and adopt model rules published by Consumer Affairs Victoria, refer http://www.consumer.vic.gov.au for details.
