Description:

The Jacer F2k3 is Jacer's current Formula Vee 1600. It is available only in CAMS specification. Note: SCCA rules do not accomodate 100mm extra length. 

The Jacer F2k3 is 100mm longer in wheelbase than the F2k2 model, 25mm of this resides in the cockpit to enable much taller drivers, and change the weight distribution to assist handling.

The Jacer F2k3 is a three level mild steel tubular chassis. Driver protection and safety in the event of a side collision is the prime factor in the design of the F2k3. The bodywork comes standard with built in Carbon-Aramid Panels to meet all side impact protection rules worldwide. The cockpit has ample room, whether the driver is tall, short, thin or wide. The driver's head and body is protected by the multi - bulkheaded chassis, which is braced to stiffen the chassis for greater suspension control, and also to increase load disipation in an impact. The floor is braced to eliminate lozengeing. The frontal area of the bodywork is reduced to increase aerodynamic efficiency. The bodywork is more streamlined than the 99 around the cockpit, and also allows for better head cooling with its "undercut" styling. The F2k2 features an adjustable pedal unit which can be moved 4" forward or back without having to adjust pushrods or even remove a bolt. This innovation literally takes minutes to get the right comfort for a driver. The Jacer F2k3 also has a larger dash panel for more instrument room, and incorporated front roll over protection via an additional bulkhead, forward of the dash. The F2k3 is a culmination of 7 years of Jacer development.

The Jacer F2k3 features the Jacer Monoshock (zero-roll principle) suspension that allows greater handling adjustments, better speed and easier ride height adjustments than conventional Formula Vee designs. It also utilises the Jacer adjustable gas shock absorber, made exclusively for Jacer by PROFLEX. The shock has Slow Bump and Rebound, and Fast Bump adjustments. The Jacer F2k3 also incorporates inboard dual front shock absorbers to allow removal of the H-Beam towers.

Jacer has produced optional extras for the F2k3, including rear Oil Cooler / Body mount tray, Droop adjusters for the front shocks, and incorporated Side Impact protection Kevlar panels.

The F2k3 is available in kit form, as a rolling chassis, or a complete car, ready to race.

From June 2003, all kits will come complete with assembly instructions and hints, and a free setup guide.
