The Formula Vee concept was brought to New Zealand by Burt Munro. Munro was an Officer in the New Zealand Army and built the first Formula Vee in the country. The chassis design was started in 1966 with the first mock-up being completed in November that year before the car was completed in March the following year (1967). Back then, all racing cars needed to be registered. The Munro Vee was first registered on February 10, 1967. It was built with affordability in mind and limited technology available to him. Munro made the nose cone by using a wool coat shaped over metal ribs and set with a resin. During the 1967 season, Munro entered the car in its first race at Levin in March and raced the car as much as he could, entering it in any class he could to build the profile of the car and start creating interest for others to join him in making a Formula Vee. Digby Taylor was the next to build a Formula Vee and it didn't take long before the first all Formula Vee race was ready to take place.
