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.

“The reason American cars don’t sell anymore is that they have forgotten how to design the American Dream. What does it matter if you buy a car today or six months from now, because cars are not beautiful. That’s why the American auto industry is in trouble: no design, no desire.”
—Karl Lagerfeld (b. 1938)
