Spec MX-5 Challenge is a sprint series for single-seat Mazda MX-5 cars run in a single class. The field sits at entry-level professional calibre, with its strongest drivers including Nathan Nicholson and Will Robusto. Drivers typically arrive from the peer NASA Spec MX-5 series, which fields a comparable roster, and move on to the Whelen Mazda MX-5 Cup presented by Michelin or Mustang Challenge, both of which run slightly stronger grids. The series functions as a stepping stone upward within one-make racing, sitting between amateur and competitive amateur fields below it and the professional ranks above.
