On Saturday, July 24th, the 10th Endurance Carnival was held in 2010. The 5-hour endurance event of the 2010 Motegi KART Endurance Festival "K-TAI" was held. In commemoration of the 10th year, the event was changed to a 4-stroke engine-based vehicle event for both days, replacing the Mission Kart class that was held until 2009. Furthermore, with modification restrictions, there are two classes that can participate in the event: the "Challenge Class" where you can enjoy creating a vehicle with a relatively wide range of modifications, and the "Enjoy Class" where you can easily enjoy the event with minimal additional parts for first-timers.

On the first day, all 27 teams participated in the 5-hour endurance event on Saturday, the 24th. On this hot summer day where the temperature was already reaching 30 degrees in the early morning, the karting teams gathered at Twin Ring Motegi to enjoy the event. The opening ceremony, a tradition at "K-TAI", began with a parade of participants. This was followed by the player's oath by #2 Rikugi System, and a meeting with the approximately 180 officials who support "K-TAI" behind the scenes. Every year, participants and officials come together to celebrate the "K-TAI" event in this unique way, which is not seen in other events. And so, the 10th "K-TAI" event began.

The 5-hour endurance final event started at 10:30. The race began with a rolling start by 26 cars lined up on the grid and a pit start for the electric kart BIREL-EV, which was specially invited by the organizers. Immediately after the start, #31 Shonan Shinjuku feat.fuu? passed through the first corner in the lead. Following that, each team raced on the Twin Ring Motegi's international racing course. After one lap, #2 Rikigaku System took the lead and pulled ahead of #3 K.R.R GX DREAM and the rest of the pack. However, after the first hour, #3 K.R.R GX DREAM completed 21 laps and took the lead. Following behind were #196 Team IMA・OMSC, #31 Shonan Shinjuku feat.fuu?, and #9 RK Robot Racing, all on the same lap.

The feature of this "K-TAI" is that during the final event, various events are prepared for event participants. For example, during the event, Twin Ring Motegi Angels visit the participants' pits and conduct real-time interviews with them in the pit report. On the other hand, participants can visit the announcer's room and use the PR time to promote their own team through the in-venue broadcast. Furthermore, participants can send real-time messages through email recruitment during the event, which will be introduced by the announcer through the in-venue broadcast. This is not just about racing on the course, but also about creating an atmosphere where everyone in the venue can enjoy themselves.

The final event progressed smoothly with the help of good weather. As time passed, the top three teams, #9 RK Robot Racing, #4 ddd, and #3 K.R.R GX DREAM, were vying for the most laps award. In the last hour, the competition intensified between #3 K.R.R GX DREAM and #4 ddd as they raced towards the final goal.

On lap 92, the two cars that had been battling on the outside of the final corner, #4 ddd emerged as the leader. However, on lap 94, they were overtaken again on the second S-curve and fell back to second place. But on lap 97, #4 ddd once again took the lead at 130R. In the end, they were able to pull away from #3 K.R.R GX DREAM, who said "the tires were too worn out and I couldn't keep up", and took the checkered flag. This marked the 10th "K-TAI" victory, with a lucky number of 100 laps completed, earning these two teams the most laps award in the Challenge Class. In the Enjoy Class, #15 Tigers and #13 TOUSOU R・S took home the most laps award with 96 laps completed.

The excellent lap award for the Challenge class goes to [#9 RK Robot Racing], [#2 Power Technique System], [#31 Shin-Shonan Shinjuku feat.fuu?], and the excellent lap award for the Enjoy class goes to [#7 ABOUT], [#10 MIC KARTING], [#16 Takanezawa Auto Club ★ OB Team].

In addition, the MVP award-winning team that received the most attention during this event was #773 Women's Kart Team SEGUNDA. The team was composed of female athletes and it was their third year participating as a women's kart team. The reason for winning the award was that the female driver led the team and participated in all three public practices. Moreover, their sincere efforts in "K-TAI" without receiving any penalties led to this result.

The 2011 "K-TAI" will be held for the 11th time. As a representative event of karts equipped with 4-stroke general-purpose engines, we will make it an even more exciting event than ever before, so please join us enthusiastically!
