Type of Cars
The United States Endurance Racing Association, or USERA, sanctions sports car road racing events in North America. There are three main series that have been sanctioned by USERA, including the USERA Spec Racer Challenge, the Formula USERA and the USERA Endurance Championship. The USERA Endurance Championship has been conducted with two spec series cars. The first was the Mazda Miata built to club racing "Spec Miata" specifications. The second was the SCCA's Spec Racer Ford purpose built sports racer. The Spec Racer Ford is also used in the USERA Spec Racer Challenge series.
Formula USERA is designed for open wheel road race cars built to club racing specifications including cars from SCCA Formula Enterprises (FE), Formula Continental (FC), Formula Mazda (FM) and Formula BMW (FB). Unlike in club racing events, for Formula USERA, all cars run together for the overall race victory, making Formula USERA a rarity today where cars from different manufacturers with different engines are competing for a single championship.

“How is freedom measured, in individuals as in nations? By the resistance which has to be overcome, by the effort it costs to stay aloft. One would have to seek the highest type of free man where the greatest resistance is constantly being overcome: five steps from tyranny, near the threshold of the danger of servitude.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
“The Republican form of government is the highest form of government; but because of this it requires the highest type of human naturea type nowhere at present existing.”
—Herbert Spencer (18201903)
“I think that cars today are almost the exact equivalent of the great Gothic cathedrals: I mean the supreme creation of an era, conceived with passion by unknown artists, and consumed in image if not in usage by a whole population which appropriates them as a purely magical object.”
—Roland Barthes (19151980)
