We are pleased to share with you all that Great British Sports Cars will be exhibiting again at this years Miata Reunion (35th Anniversary) at Sonoma Raceway in California, which is taking place 2nd – 3rd November.  You will find GBS with several Mazda based Zero’s located at this legendary race venue and around town during the weekend.

It looks like an action packed weekend and we can’t wait to be there for the weekend with the Zeros. The Miata Reunion is an annual celebration of the MX-5 Miata, offering quality track time at an iconic venue for hard-core track enthusiasts, as well as a full plate of off-track activities and social interaction for Miata lovers.

Given our GBS Zero takes the proven Miata performance to a whole new level we felt it a fitting venue to showcase the Zero to Miata enthusiasts.

We will share more details about what can be seen on our stand at the event later in the year.

The GBS Zero is very popular in the USA with several Zero’s now on the road and many that are currently being built as well as several more kits that we are currently preparing several Zero Self builds to export later this year.
