Who we are...

The Atlantic Formula Racing Association (AFRA) was formed in 1992 by a group of Formula 1600 racers and others dedicated to the advancement of Formula Car racing in the Atlantic region.

In 1992, AFRA organized a racing series for Formula 1600 race cars, known as the Atlantic Formula 1600 Championship Series or Atlantic F1600 Championship Series.

Since that time, AFRA has organized an annual racing series for Formula race cars, with races being held at the 2.575 km, 11-turn road circuit at Atlantic Motorsport Park near Shubenacadie, Nova Scotia.

In 1997, the Atlantic Formula Racing Association incorporated as a non-profit association under the societies act of Nova Scotia and will continue to organize racing for Formula 1600 race cars.

In 2010, AFRA will run a Formula Libre championship series.
Fifteen races will make up the 2010 Atlantic Formula Championship. All races will be held on the Atlantic Motorsport Park 2.575 km, 11-turn road circuit at Shubenacdie, NS.

Formula racing is considered an excellent training ground for competitors interested in pursuing a career in professional motor racing, with many drivers who got their start in the formula going on to the top echelons of motor racing, such as Formula 1, Indy Car and Formula Atlantic.more ...
