About Us

BOFI Racing started as a blog. It was—and still is—our mission to drive more Mazda MX-5 owners into motorsport. Having competed successfully at club level for a few seasons, we knew first-hand how hard it was to find out where to do motorsport that wasn’t full-blown circuit racing. With that in mind, we set about writing how to do motorsport on a budget.

As Leigh, James and Daniel had met through mutual ownership of MX-5s, we decided to keep the blog focused on our favourite sports car. With over a million sold there certainly shouldn’t be a shortage of people who might be willing to read our posts! To pay for the hosting, we designed t-shirts and stickers to sell on the website, drawing on ideas from our own trackside experiences.

With frequent discussions about the various states of tune we found our cars in, we realised there wasn’t a one-stop shop for Mazda MX-5 performance parts in the UK. We set about sourcing as many MX-5 specific parts as we could, from air filters to turbo kits and everything in between. Quickly outgrowing the bedroom and a small office shortly thereafter, we moved into an industrial unit with a warehouse and workshop in late 2019.

With better facilities for storing and packaging products, we have been able to offer fast shipping on parts that come from many specialist suppliers across the world. Where we couldn’t find a suitable product we’ve designed our own, and by partnering with our suppliers we have discovered some amazing products that we otherwise would never have known had existed.

We love hearing about your builds. Our grassroots nature means you can reach us by phone, email and social media. You can also find us at shows, track days and other events across the country. Check our Facebook page to see where you can come to meet us throughout the year.
