Super Formula Lights is set to become a one-make engine series in future, with a new Toyota-derived turbocharged unit already being tested: SFormula
Open engine competition was a feature of the old All-Japan Formula 3 series, and has continued in Super Formula Lights, which began in 2020 with the arrival of the current Dallara 320 chassis.
Super Formula Lights has now revealed that, in the coming seasons, a new engine developed by TOM'S, dubbed the TGE33, will be introduced for all competitors. It signifies a move away from the current generation of normally-aspirated engines, bringing the series more in line with Super Formula, which has long since used turbo-powered cars, as well as international categories such as FIA Formula 3 and Formula 2.
"Because the current normally-aspirated engine is becoming a turbo, I was a little worried about the response, but in fact from start to finish I didn't have any uncomfortable feeling for the whole two days," commented Kimura.
