We believe that the Formula First class will offer the consumer the best value in racing. No other class will offer a direct operating cost of less than $200.00 per race weekend combined with a rules package that will make every car capable of running in the front. The formula first class will be the perfect entry level formula car class.

Most people familiar with the name Mysterian know that over the years Kurt's designs have won many championships including the SCCA national runoffs. The M5 is the latest in a very successful series of race car designs that feature beautiful, elegant body lines, simplistic construction, and superior craftsmanship.

Currently Mystique Racing will only be offering the M5 in a kit configuration. See the price page for more details.
