    ABOUT THE CLUB The Mazda MX-5 Club of WA Inc. Has well and truly come of age we are now more than 25 years old. From its inception the club quickly grew and is now around 170 members strong. Members range in age from late teens with "L plates" through to more than triple that figure, with both young and old making valued contributions to the Club. Membership is almost equally split between male/female; the MX-5 is a car that knows no boundaries, and has universal appeal! Many members have found a whole new world of like-minded people, and a number of firm friendships have been developed over the two decades that the Club has been established. During that time many Club members have built up an encyclopaedic knowledge about the MX-5 - what accessories are worthwhile and who are the best suppliers, which performance mods actually work (and which ones don't!), how best to look after your MX-5, and also where and what are the best MX-5 driving roads in WA. At any Club meeting, all this information is available – so come along and ask! Members have the opportunity to compete safely and at minimal cost in a wide range of Club motorsport events and driver training. MX-5 Club members have been very successful in the state Autokhana series, speed event series, motorkhanas, hill-climbs, navigation trials, sprints, Dutton Rally, TargaWest and even Targa Tasmania! The club has regular monthly cruises and numerous social gatherings, for information see mx5club.com.au.
