On July 6th, which was a break in the rainy season, in the early morning, the blue sky peeked through the clouds and a refreshing breeze passed through Twin Ring Motegi. As the teams pushed their cars onto the grid early in the morning, they took commemorative photos and did final checks before eagerly waiting for the start of the "JOY TAI" race in their own unique styles. When all 90 cars were lined up on the grid, the opening ceremony began with a declaration by the Twin Ring Motegi Angels, followed by a greeting from General Manager Takao Aoki to all participants. Then, as team introductions began, the countdown started.

Divide into 2 groups and enter the rolling lap, form a line and complete 1 lap. Then the safety car will pit in and the signal blue will light up. At the main post, the Japanese flag will be waved and the 14th "Joy Tai" will begin.

First, clear the 1st and 2nd corners with 【#13 GALASSIA WM DC5】 in pole position. 【#31 Hasepro Lancer EVO8】, 【#57 Tohwa Intec Racing DC5】, 【#847 Dr. Nomuten Ha Soul INTEGRA】, 【#14 Mason BRIDE elf EK9】, 【#95 SSS Civic】, 【#104 I Love S2000】, 【#27 Chichirodo Star】, and 【#5 Mizuho Pharmacy WIND Mitswa EG6】 follow. The car that returned to the top on the opening lap was 【#31 Hasepro Lancer EVO8】. Its tail was marked by 【#57 Tohwa Intec Racing DC5】. A little further back, 【#13 GALASSIA WM DC5】 follows. After that, 【#57 Tohwa Intec Racing DC5】 rises to the top, and until the 20th lap, it maintains its position, but when it pits in, cars with good fuel efficiency start to move up in position. 【#7 Versus wm FUCHS FIT】 and 【#48 DIJON Racing FIT】 pit in for the first time after 1 hour and 50 minutes and 40 laps since the start of the race. This puts 【#57 Tohwa Intec Racing DC5】 back in the lead, but due to its poor fuel efficiency, it starts to drop in position. On the other hand, 【#27 Chichirodo Star】 and 【#5 Mizuho Pharmacy WIND Mitswa EG6】 start to move up in position.

At the 2-hour mark, #27 Chicchi Roadstar was in the lead, but at the 4-hour mark, #5 Mizuho Pharmacy WIND Mitswa EG6 took over the top spot. However, #813 GULFJ-WAVEFITED slowly caught up from behind. Taking advantage of its excellent fuel efficiency, it completed 73 laps at the halfway point and only made one pit stop for refueling.

As the race enters its final stages, the battle for the top is narrowed down to #813 GULFJ-WAVEFITED and #5 Mizuho Pharmacy WIND Mitswa EG6. With less than 30 minutes remaining, #813 GULFJ-WAVEFITED, who had been leading, is chased by #5 Mizuho Pharmacy WIND Mitswa EG6, who is setting their team's best lap times. #813 GULFJ-WAVEFITED had to make one more pit stop, which drew attention to the gap between the two teams. Then, with 17 minutes remaining, #813 GULFJ-WAVEFITED makes their final pit stop. They quickly change drivers and return to the track in the lead. #5 Mizuho Pharmacy WIND Mitswa EG6 continues to push and sets their personal best lap time, but the gap is too large at 1 minute and 6 seconds. #813 GULFJ-WAVEFITED, who completed 155 laps first, takes the checkered flag and claims overall victory at the "JOY TAI" endurance race.

"This year, we couldn't measure fuel efficiency due to constant rain during practice, but the fuel efficiency was better than expected in the final race. However, we had no margin for error. I've been partnered with Tomizawa since our first year, and I know how fast Takahashi is. I myself have been driving this car for a long time, so I always had to consider fuel efficiency and balance with other cars. It was difficult to win with the FIT, but in our third year, we were able to achieve overall victory. This is thanks to the accumulation of three years and the many secret techniques that I can't tell anyone about. "Joy TAI" can be summed up in one word: fun. I hope that Joy TAI will continue to develop in the future." - Piston Nishizawa, driver.

Second place overall with [#5 Mizuho Pharmacy WIND Mitswa EG6] also recorded 155 laps. Also won first place in Class 5.

Finished in 3rd place overall with 【#77 WINIX FIT3】 completing the same number of laps as the leader.
