Ma5da Racing are pleased to announce that Scalextric have now been secured as a main sponsor for 2008.

Scalextric currently do not have a model MX-5 mk1 in their range, but further discussions will be taking place with a joint marketing exercise during 2008 to Mazda Mx-5 owners across the UK, Europe and the USA.

Depending on initial market research a Scalextric Ma5da Racing set could be in production by 2010.

"Having Scalextric as a sponsor for 2008 has boosted our profile even more as the new home of MX-5 racing." - Jonathan Blake

All cars will carry Scalextric decals throughout the 2008 season.

Further sponsorships are due to be announced in the coming weeks.
