Actually, this is NEWS to me. Last I heard Mazda was going to withdraw support for the SCCA due to them not supporting MX-5 packages and supporting illegal mods for the Solstice/Sky.
Cliffs, SCCA approves of teh MS-R package, then deems them illegal. While Pontiac and Saturn dealers DO NOT carry aftermarket “OEM” parts as required by the rules.

Nothing is finalized at this point, and as a Mazda Team Support member as well as an SCCA member I didn’t vote for a move to NASA on the survey that they sent around. The Spec Miata guys could go either way, as the competition is there in large numbers for both organizations. For Solo, though, NASA has nothing compared to the SCCA, and I am strongly against such a move, as all it will do is dilute competition as some people stay with SCCA and others go the NASA.
I didn’t bother to post about it here because anybody concerned about such activities would have read about it elsewhere.
