The Mission Mini Cup by Motul Championship is the beginning of a journey for aspiring young motorcycle road racers. It is the first step in a process that could lead talented young racers to the MotoAmerica AMA/FIM North American Road Racing Championship and culminate in the FIM Superbike World Championship and/or MotoGP World Championship.

The Mini Cup series was developed specifically to introduce young people beginning as young as five years old to the sport of motorcycle road racing. Mini Cup races are held on challenging kart tracks around the U.S., and the racers compete for podium positions, trophies, race wins, and season championships (including coveted AMA number-one plates).

A select few Mini Cup riders are also invited to compete in the FIM MiniGP World Series finale, which is held every year at the end of the race season.
