The Teen Mazda Challenge series, sanctioned by the National Auto Sports Association (N.A.S.A.) is a program designed to place up and coming teen race drivers firmly on MAZDASPEED's motorsports ladder.  

Teens between the ages of 13 and 19 are invited to join in regularly scheduled, multiple N.A.S.A. sanctioned Spec Miata race events held throught the United States on any given weekend for a chance to win the Teen Mazda Challenger series championship.  The Teen Mazda Challenge champion is then invited to join a multitude of diverse Mazda powered champions from various race sanctioning groups and car classes to a year-end Mazda Driver Shootout.  Thus allowing the Teen Champion an opportunity of a lifetime to compete against fellow champions for the ultimate prize of a full year sponsorship by Mazda in the Playboy Mazda MX-5 Cup series.
