TA2 Formula
TA2 is based on a relevant, practical and purposeful racing platform that highlights driver talent and promotes close competition.
Designed, built and tuned with only one thing in mind —performance. The TA2 Muscle Car Series formula is built on a cost effective platform, combining the prowess of a purpose-built racing chassis and a 525 horsepower engine package that causes every head in the paddock to turn and take notice.
At 1250kg and over 525hp there is no other car that can compare to the performance of these cars in their price range.
This formula allows drivers to use their skill behind the wheel, not the money spent on the engine, to set them apart and propel them to the top of the pack.
Series Management
The TA2 Muscle Car Series is supported by a dedicated community of teams, drivers and management with a passion for motorsport.
TA2 Muscle Car Series Management was formed to operate the TA2 Muscle Car Series and to establish a competition agreement and racing entitlement policy. With a vision of expanding the class interstate, the group aims to work with established motor-sport authorities to establish a national series and a set of national rules and regulations.
The series management group is headed by former V8 Utes manager Craig Denyer, and PBR Distributions’ Peter Robinson, who manages the importing and distribution of the TA2 cars and equipment from Howe Racing Enterprises in the United States.
