Other Events
Apart from the locally organised meetings and drives, Members can enjoy other events and national events. The club's main site www.mx5oc.co.uk has more details of the national events.
There are also a number of track days. A new site, www.uktrackdays.co.uk, shows more details of track days around the United Kingdom. You might also like to take a look at their Beginners' Guide, which is quite useful.
There is also a National Events Phone Line - 07799 410936.
For those of you who, like me, love drag racing try these links...
Saturday 6 and Sunday 7
Edwards Mazda Weekend
Rough details for the time being...
"An open weekend with a barbecue to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the launch of the MX-5. First, for Club Members on the Sunday, there will be breakfast with English rolls and Bucks Fizz to celebrate and toast the 20th anniversary of the MX-5. We will offer the Club a preview of the 20th Anniversary special edition MX-5 and Simon Hughes our Mazda Manager will be doing a prize draw on the day offering some exciting and interesting prizes (for fun only). Finally, we will give every Club Member who attends a Mini Valet Voucher to have their car cleaned; all they need to do is book the clean with Simon at a time convenient to all. We would like to hold the event from 09:00 to 10:30 on Sunday the 7th of March."
