With more cars being road-raced than any other brand, Mazda racks up wins almost every weekend of the year. MAZDASPEED Motorsports represents both a commitment to quality, durability and reliability as well as a sincere desire to help aspiring racers advance their career.

“It’s not that we win, it’s how and why we win,” noted John Doonan, Director, Mazda Motorsports for Mazda North American Operations. “Our club racers are the heart and soul of what we do, and to see those drivers advance to the top rungs of the sport is fantastic. Because of the MAZDASPEED Ladder and the Mazda Road to Indy, over a quarter of the IZOD Indycar field at St. Pete has roots with Mazda.”

The 2012 season for MAZDASPEED Motorsports will consist of more than 200 individual races in over a dozen series at three dozen race tracks across the U.S. and Canada. A half-dozen professional series had their season openers in Florida this month on two big weekends, and Mazda-powered cars outnumbered the competition at both weekends. In total, more than 100 Mazda-powered racers participated in 13 races with over 18 hours of racing!
