    At first the race events are held at the Fuji Speedway and SUGO international racing course.

    I will give you a summary of the regulations for the Japan Roadster Cup racing rule, the contestant's vehicle refers to the Japan inspection, and the vehicle must past the safety standards that can be driven on the open road. If you have a race you must abide by the rules according to the FIA and JAF. The engine and the ECU can be stocked, making adjustments to the suspension allows for the height of the race vehicle. The bushing must be made from rubber.

    Your exhaust manifold and muffler should past the vehicle inspection such as (volume regulation) regulation of Japan. It is ok to use aero parts, if there is no change in the overall length, full width, and full height in the width of the GT wing that is 138cm.

    The minimum ground clearance for racing in Japan at the vehicle inspection is 9cm, if you don’t abide by this rule, you cannot entry your Miata & MX-5 for the Roadster Cup racing in Japan.

    As for the Mazda Roadster, for NA6 930kg, NA8 980kg, NB6 974kg, NB8sr1 1020kg, NB8sr2 1050kg, is the minimum weight.
    The tire we use are the radial of 195/50R15 or 185/60R14.

    The reason why you don’t see the black NA8 at the end of the race is because the driver made a jump start and he was disqualified .
