MX5 CHALLENGE

We are in the process of organising a control category for the NC MX5. The intention is to have identical NC MX5's with strict controls limiting modifications to ensure close, budget friendly racing. At present we have 6 NC's completed with another 6 in the process of being built. The regulations are currently being finalised and should be available soon. We endeavour to have turn key racecars available from just $35,000. If you wish to build your own this is possible, so long as the car is available for inspection and tagging upon completion of the build.

Unlike other categories there will be NO RESTRICTIONS on other racing you do with YOUR car. The only requirements will be that when doing our events it must meet our rules!!

Initial response from track promoters has been very encouraging and in our first year we have intentions of racing at numerous circuits in NSW and QLD.

If you are interested in being part of this exciting new venture please contact Chris at MX5 Racing or Simone at MX5 Mania
