Nearly 30 drivers are confirmed for a two-day new driver test at Carolina Motorsports Park in Kershaw, S.C. next Tuesday and Wednesday. Coordinated by Ligier Automotive North America, the test days will provide drivers with the opportunity to get behind the wheel of a Ligier JS F4, the new JS F422 or the Ligier JS F3. The cars are raced in the Ligier JS F4 Series (JS F4), Formula 4 United States Championship (F4 U.S.), and Formula Regional Americas Championship (FR Americas), respectively. Ligier CEO Mo Murray expressed excitement, stating, “We’re excited to provide prospective drivers with this opportunity to try out the various cars that we manufacture at Ligier.” The test aims to introduce prospective drivers to new cars and series, allowing newcomers to experience cars used in FR Americas, F4 U.S., and JS F4, and enabling current drivers to consider stepping up a class. Educational sessions on sponsorship, social media, branding, driver fitness, nutrition, engine talks, and setting up a race car are also planned. Race director Scott Goodyear noted, “This is a great opportunity to connect with up-and-coming racers and give them a taste of what they can expect racing in one of the series on PMH’s open-wheel ladder.” Interested drivers can reach out to David Cooper, sales director for Ligier Automotive North America, to participate.
