Incorporated in our MSCA Weekend of motorsport at Winton, we welcome our friends from RX8 Cup.
RX8 Cup came into inception in mid-2017 as the brainchild of long-time production car racer Ric Shaw.
The philosophy of the category was to base the vehicles around 3E Production Car specifications, using a series 1 Mazda RX8 as the base, with further restrictions applied to simplify construction and maintenance.
The RX8 is well-balanced, with inherent performance and handling characteristics that suit motor racing applications. The RX8 is also a modern looking vehicle, which has attracted a loyal following of rotary enthusiasts.
The RX8 Cup has become one of the core categories of the NSW Motor Racing Championship, due to its affordability, consistently high competitor numbers and close, entertaining racing. It is a category that provides a fun environment for racing, and one where talented drivers are able to demonstrate their abilities at a national level.
