The MX-5 is a real sports car, and motor sport is about the best way to experience your MX-5. You don't need to be a fast driver, or an experienced one. Just bring your enthusiasm and a desire to get the most from your car and yourself.

The following information is by no means authoritative, just a general guide aimed at newcomers. Plenty more information about specific topics can be obtained from the web, books, talking to competitors or by gaining experience for yourself.
