Next Generation Motorsports

At Mobility Resort Motegi, various motorsports races are held, including fuel-based race events such as the Eco Mileage Challenge.
"Ene-1" is a new event that competes in vehicle creation and management using "AAA batteries" as the power source.
It is an energy management competition that utilizes various ideas.

Detailed Classifications

Category is divided into Div1, which has no vehicle weight limit, and Div1+ and DivNEXT, which have minimum weight (including driving power) for both "KV-40" with 3 or more wheels and "KV-Moto" based on bicycles.
There are 4 classes: general, university/technical college, high school, and junior high school. In addition, in DivNEXT, rider weight is further divided by class.

"Div1" is a lightweight vehicle that requires technology, cost, and knowledge, "Div1+" is a general class for relatively beginners, and "DivNEXT" is for students. Each category and class has different features and is finely set, making it a competition where even beginners can aim for a prize.

Handmade

The body is designed and built by ourselves. The joy of actually running something we made ourselves.
In each department, there are middle schools, high schools, universities, technical colleges, and general schools, and they are working on it as one of the challenges of school activities. There are also vehicles made by working adults that go beyond the realm of hobbies, utilizing advanced knowledge and skillful construction.

From things that stimulate ideas and inspiration, to vehicles that are so intricately crafted that you can't help but be amazed. Just watching the competition vehicles is entertaining.

Vehicles participating in the general category are often a great reference as they are built with bold ideas and a lot of effort put into the technology.
Be sure to visit Mobility Resort Motegi and take a look at the vehicles for yourself.

Knowledge

In addition to the knowledge learned in school, there are many hints in our daily lives that we may not notice.
From everyday bicycles to household appliances, materials and ingredients, we may be able to find hints in our daily lives and studies (work).

Teamwork

It is essential to fully demonstrate one's own abilities, but if everyone thinks together and combines their strengths, they can possess a tremendous amount of power that cannot be matched by individuals alone.
Just like in club activities and ball games, even if one person stands out in a team or organization, the results will not be achieved. Each individual must give their all and produce results.

Just a "battery", but a "battery". It's a familiar "battery", but it enhances knowledge and solidarity.

Energy Management

The ranking is determined by the overall points of the "Time Attack (qualifying)" for short distance races and the "Final Race" for long distance races.
Since the same battery is used for both the "Time Attack (qualifying)" and the "Final Race", it is important to consider pace distribution to avoid running out of battery before reaching the checker. Even if a high ranking is achieved in the short distance race, it is meaningless if the checker is not reached in the long distance race.
Calculate the capacity and consider pace distribution, giving instructions to the driver.
Let's all share the joy of receiving the checker with the vehicle we have created together!
