"What is the Moto Festival?"

Anyone from beginners with no racing experience to veterans can participate!

At the "Moto Festival," we hold various motorcycle races using mini bikes such as the GROM, APE100, and XR100, including the 'Moto Mini 6 Hours,' where riders take turns riding for six hours, as well as races for those who want to pursue speed on mini bikes beyond beginners, including one-make races!
Among them, the 'Moto Mini 6Hours' is designed so that even beginners can participate. We hold Moto Festival driving events and provide programs that allow participants to feel at ease, such as workshops for participants, bus tours of the course, and guided rides.

Let's recruit friends for the endurance race!

You can register 2 to 6 Riders. You cannot participate with only 1 Rider.
If you register only 2 Riders and one of them suddenly cannot participate due to unforeseen circumstances, the entire team will be unable to participate. Basically, try to participate with 3 or more Riders.
To form a team, you also need pit crew members who will help out. You can register from 1 to 6 members here.

step.2

"Moto Festival" has established several participation qualifications to ensure that even those driving on the track for the first time can do so safely. Many first-time participants obtain their qualifications by following the three steps below.
