Performance is a hallmark of the Mazda experience, and it's put to the test every time at the tracks of the Mazdaspeed Motorsport Race Series. The Mazda MX-5 Cup is named for the Miata roadster, which took the automotive world by storm in 1989 and proved itself a competitor on both road and track. The Champ Car Atlantic is a formula racing series and one of the top open wheel racing venues in the country; Mazda is proud to not only sponsor the race, but also to help power its engines with Mazda design. The Star Mazda Championship is a spec-racing series powered by advanced RENESIS engines and carbon fiber racecars, where the top international racing prospects of tomorrow come to prove their mettle. All three races are powered by Mazda engineering, ingenuity, and passion for a true driving experience.
