at Lakeside International Raceway. Greg Ritter, in his third year of Formula Ford, won the 1999 championship, the first Australian Championship win for a Mygale driver. In a close contest, Ritter beat Steve Owen driving a Spectrum and Alex Davison driving a Van Diemen by two points. Luke Youlden won the championship driving a Mygale in 2000. Between 2001 and 2006 Mygale played a marginal role with only a few entries. 2007 was a strong season when it provided the Sonic Motor Racing Services with chassis. Tim Blanchard won the championship and James Moffat was placed second. Both drove 2007 model Mygale Formula Fords. The following years Mygale and Spectrum were the only chassis with full-time entries. Van Diemen played a marginal role. Mygale drivers won the championship in 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012 and 2013. After the 2013 season the national championship was cancelled to be replaced by the Australian Formula Ford Series. USF2000 In 1999 Mygale produced a USF2000 car for the American market. DSTP Motorsports fielded two Mygales, for Bobby Oergel and Ian Lacy. Oergel achieved three podium finishes and Lacy one. The first half of the season was particularly strong. Oergel finished sixth and Lacy 17th in the championship. In 2000 the Mygale chassis were entered in the American Continental Championship class, for cars built before 2000. Tõnis Kasemets drove a Mygale at Road America, here he captured a podium finish in class in the second race. Another Mygale was entered by Jeff Sakowicz at Road Atlanta. At Homestead-Miami Speedway was an unsuccessful season for Mygale in the USF2000. Bryan Sellers and Daniel Muniz were fielded by DSTP Motorsports. But after a disappointing opening race the team switched to Van Diemen. For 2002 Jonathan Urlin was fielded by OTM Motorsports in a new Mygale. It was Mygales most successful season in USF2000 yet, Urlin scored two pole-positions and four podium finishes. The Canadian driver finished behind Sellers and Jeffrey Jones third in the standings. Sakowicz drove a Mygale car at Sebring International Raceway in 2002 and 2003 but without success. Further Formula Ford success After Mygale's departure from Formula Renault Mygale continued in Formula Ford. Mygale scored a one-two finish at the Formula Ford Festival in 2000 with Anthony Davidson and Danica Patrick.
