Championship Overview

The 2012 Hanmore Formula Overdrive season is the current season for the Formula Overdrive series, which featured yet another change in ownership, this time from former promoter ARLA to executives from the Hanmore corporation, which also signed on to be the title sponsor.

Ownership and engine rules have been relaxed in contrast to the strict two-car operation and one-engine-per-team rules seen in the 2008 and 2011 seasons. Four engine suppliers will be seen in 2012; Xenos, ClarTech, Atsuro Technologies, and TTE. There will also be two chassis for teams to choose from; Duncan and Mascroft. In 2013, the two-car and one-engine-per-team rules will return.
