Whilst its good to have choice, its a bit of ''too many cooks spoil the broth''. For the layman non-followerof the car, it seems the grid lining up is idetical to the one the chequered flag waved before on. BRSCCC for example have the following:

MX5 championship
MX5 clubman championship
MX5 mk4 Trophy
MX5 Supercup
To be fair, BARC's MX5 championship was canned at the end of last year. Also the Mk. 4 Trophy has run as part of other BRSCC championships owing to a relatively low take up, therefore it hasn't been a race in its own right yet. The point stands that there is room for some pruning of championships (and, one would like, some co-operation between clubs to avoid duplication). However, as previously said this is something that has been required for some years.
