"What is Mote tai (Mote endurance)?"
"Mote tai (Mote endurance)" is a endurance race using bikes from 115cc to 250cc!
(4-stroke, 4 cylinders or less vehicles)
"Mote tai (Mote endurance)" is an introductory endurance race for road racing that can be participated in with bikes between 115cc and 250cc, 4-stroke, and 4 cylinders or less.
Considering the performance differences and characteristics of the vehicles, we have set pit stop times according to each class to compensate for those differences in lap times. This allows for the elimination of performance disparities, making it a race where there is a chance of winning regardless of the class entered.
"Someday, I will stand in the center of the podium at least once!" A chance and dream-filled endurance race!
