The cars
Formula Mirage was an open chassis class, open for all manufacturers. Only Van Diemen and Reynard Motorsports entered the series using converted Formula Ford 2000 chassis. All competitors had to use the same engine, the 2-liter, DOHC, 4-valve, Mitsubishi 4G63 engine.[1] Despite the series name, the 4G63 engine was never used in a Mirage model, although the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution series of cars which used the engines were based on the Mirage platform at the time the series ran.
