OfficialMini Cup 101
The Mission Mini Cup National Championship is the beginning of a journey for aspiring young motorcycle road racers. It's the first step in a process that could lead talented young racers to the MotoAmerica AMA/FIM North American Road Racing Championship and possibly, for a select few, even culminate in the FIM Superbike World Championship and/or MotoGP World Championship.
The Mission Mini Cup National Championship was developed specifically to introduce young people beginning as young as six years old to the sport of motorcycle road racing. Mini Cup races are held on challenging kart tracks throughout the U.S.
Several former Mini Cup riders like Kayla Yaakov, Avery Dreher, Nathan Gouker, and Kensei Matsudaira have already moved up and are competing in MotoAmerica's and other countries' national road racing championships. They credit much of their success to skills learned in the Mission Mini Cup National Championship.
