These classes cater to a wide age range, ensuring that young racers from ages 6 to 14 and beyond can participate.

Building connections and expanding opportunities
According to Chuck Aksland, COO of MotoAmerica, the collaboration with MiniSBK Canada marks a significant step in expanding the reach of the Mini Cup series.
