Mazda MX-5 Miata - Manual (Page 12)

It all comes back to
On any given weekend, there are more Mazdas on the roadrace tracks of America than any other brand of vehicle.* And true to its Mazda heritage, the
MX-5 Miata has been racing—and winning—in a wide array of Sports Car Club of America (SCCA)-sanctioned classes and road races since its American
debut in 1989. Most recently, notable victories include winning 7 National Championships in SCCA Showroom Stock Class B (SS/B) —while outrunning
hordes of Acuras, BMWs, Hondas and Toyotas in the process. Equally impressive, 2006 marks the inaugural running of the SCCA Pro Racing SIRIUS Satellite
Radio Mazda MX-5 Miata Cup presented by Hankook. This exciting new racing series consists of eight events run on some of America’s most legendary
road courses—including Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. A true test of driving talent, the series pits identically prepared, third-generation MX-5 Miatas
equipped with essentially stock Mazda 2.0-liter engines and 6-speed manual gearboxes against one another. But then, Mazda has always been about
competing. Improving. Refining. And, of course, Zoom-Zoom. After all, that’s what makes every Mazda truly a Mazda. And with more than 750,000 sold
worldwide, it’s also what makes the MX-5 Miata the best-selling two-seat roadster of all time.
