Mazda Contingency Funds
At each Marquee event (10 weekends during the 2020 season), Mazda, Toyo Tire and Pagid Racing will offer the following prizes:
Invitational Scholarships
Mazda will award $10,000 to selected applicants for Invitational events. This will consist of 10 awards ($1,000 each) for ten applicants who show great promise to move up the Mazda ladder.
Championship Prize Money
Drivers during the regular season Marquee events (whether National Series, Invitational or East/West Regional Series drivers) will score points to qualify for the 2020 Spec MX-5 Challenge Championship. An anticipated $70,000 pool of money will be awarded at the Championship:
• A minimum of $50,000 guaranteed to the Championship winner
• Cash prizes for 2nd and 3rd place finishers, assuming sufficient entries during the regular season
• Cash prizes for the top Masters finisher and the top Emerging Talent.
Spec MX-5 Challenge will report on the growing Championship Prize Fund on a regular basis during the season.
