NEW CONTENT // Super Formula Lights

Super Formula Lights is the final step that drivers face on the Super Formula ladder before heading into the top-level series. With a history of taking its basis from global Formula 3 regulations, for 2024, the series will feature Dallara's latest addition to one of the most impressive portfolios of open-wheel cars in racing history.

Known as the Dallara 324, the current Super Formula Lights car is a successor to the 320 model that the series featured over the previous four years. Aside from chassis and aerodynamic upgrades, the new car sees a big departure from years past as it moves to the first spec engine in series history. It features a turbocharged, three-cylinder, 1.6-liter Toyota TGE33 engine developed by TOM'S, capable of producing roughly 275 horsepower. This is the same caliber of machinery that most of the world's top young open-wheel racers to go through as they climb to the highest level, so don't underestimate it!

Please, we need Sugo and Autopolis to complete the Super Formula tracks!

[charliebeckey]

I bet this will be a popular class. Fast enough to be challenging but not death at every corner haha

[GitGudRacing]

Looking forward to see the difference between this and the F3!

[satido]

this is just the sweet middle point between f4 and sf. great job as always. thank you guys!

[StevenYanni]

Just finished a season of F3 officials and F3.5 with my league. This is ideal

[fitnesschefen]

OMG this looks SO nice. Im loving the Super Formula, but I need this also

Looks like it'll be great training for accelerating in the SF. The balance of speed against the snap oversteer limit takes time to learn.

I love those dramatic presentations showing off a bathtub as it was James Web Space Telescope.

Great to see the F3 class get the updated model. iRacing in 2024 is on fire!!! That turbo 🤤

[Random_Driver...]

If you bought the Dallara F3 less then a year ago, will you get something like a discount on this new car?

[nielhekkens]

That shift moment on 0:45! I can't remember seeing shifter pedals animated before.

[JohnLOfficial]

Great, more f4/f3 type open wheelers, exactly what iRacing didn't have enough of!

[StMediaNL]

These cars look fricking awesome! So good, so much fun. Nice job guys! Can't wait to rock these with VR muhaha.

Hope this means the older dallara F317 is retired... This new car (324)
is just a regional F3 car for japan.

Generally excited but a few concerns:

Naming it SF Lights leads me to think it will not replace the current F3 championship. This is bad for multiple reasons.

First, it will split participation.

Second, players that recently bought the F3 will most likely pay full price for this as it is a new series with the F3 coexisting on paper despite most likely dying on participation.

Third, we will most likely have again pressure to put Japanese tracks on it, while F3 was a global series without any bias to one country.

Fourth, and this is a minor one, the brand SF Lights will be unknown to many people while F3 was a known brand despite the car technically not being a modern representation of F3 anymore.

Would be a way better solution to just replace the Formula C with it, keep it without any country-bias and give people some money back after buying the soon outdated F3.

Also, I really hoped this would get rid of the "red on dark red" rev lights steering wheel, but at least it seems like the rev limiter is WAY more forgiving than in the current F3.

So good. I can't wait to get behind the wheel and drive this one.

[caralrahe]

[advilpm]
