| Our next track
meeting is on Sunday, 19th February 2012
Members Only - Earlybird will apply
Entry forms available in the
Motorsport Documents section below.
This section is dedicated to those
with MX-5s that seek competition in their driving or
occasionally drive a little harder than is allowed on
the road or on social runs.
Motor sport or competitive events are organised by the
Competition Secretary and we encourage you to contact us
regarding events that you would like to see the club
host or in which you would like to participate.
The club arranges track days at Wakefield Park near Goulburn in the Southern Highlands
of New South Wales. One event is a Round of the NSW
Supersprint Championship, and track events on either a Monday or Sunday,
for the “weekend racers”. Refer to the Competition Calendar for
the dates of each event.
For those who enjoy the track days but would like to try
their hand at other circuits then we suggest obtaining a
CAMS L2S licence and registering to compete in the
CAMS
NSW Supersprint Championship. The Mazda MX-5 Club of NSW
has won the Club Championship five times in the last
seven years at this event. The Championship has classes
for standard road registered cars through to highly
modified race-cars, so there is a class to suit every
car. As indicated above the club will host a Round of this Championship at
Wakefield Park. For further information on the
Championship contact the Competition Secretary.
And for those who want to take the final step into
racing you will need to upgrade your CAMS licence and
join the
Production Sports Car Racing
Association of Australia
and participate in their six round championship run at
Eastern Creek, Oran Park and Wakefield Park.
So if you haven’t given competitive driving a go why not
join us at our next track day. Experienced drivers from
within the club will help you get started. Who knows you
maybe joining the Production Sports Car guys in a short
time or like many of our longer serving members just
enjoying the fellowship and adrenalin rush of the club
track days. |

Secrets to Going Fast in a MX-5
- Car set up: Alignment, corner weights and good maintenance/proper equipment.
- Seat time: Can't go fast if you don't
practice...
- Coaching: Find someone who's fast in a
MX-5 and ask for help!
- Remember that an MX-5 is a low horsepower,
high handling car
- so get your braking done before the
corner
- and get on the power early to go fast
out of the corners.
