Seventy teams lined up on the Slovak Karting Center V1 circuit (1,172 m) in Orechová Potôň on 26 September 2026 for the Final of this endurance event — one of the largest grids seen at this venue. After the equivalent of 175 laps at racing pace, DYMOVEE RACING (kart #10) took the overall victory, crossing the line with a one-lap advantage over the chasing pack.

Runner-up went to TALENT FACTORY BY GOODWILL KARTING (#16), who completed 174 laps and finished 20.786 seconds behind on the road — a strong result that underlines the competitiveness at the front. MOLD RACING (#37) secured third place, also on 174 laps, a further 9.390 seconds adrift at the flag. Fourth and fifth were extremely close: TRI-V INTERNATIONAL (#11) and COOL BEAR RACING (#54) were separated by less than a second (39.991 s and 40.889 s respectively behind the winner), both on 174 laps. AURUM RACING TEAM (#20) rounded out the top six, also on 174 laps.

The fastest lap of the entire race — 1:09.544 — was set by race winners DYMOVEE RACING, the only team to dip below the 1:09.6 barrier. Several other frontrunners posted very tight best laps in the 1:09.6 range, reflecting the extremely competitive nature of the top group on a circuit where every tenth counts.

From a strategic standpoint, all top-six finishers completed two pit stops, which proved to be the optimal strategy at this level of the field. Further down the order, teams on three or four stops generally populated positions 11 through 50, while those requiring five, six or even seven stops — such as HONEYMOON C PLUS (#21), who made seven stops and finished 21 laps down in last place — paid a significant price in track time.

The analysis of pure pace reveals some noteworthy contrasts. LVF (#39) recorded the best median race pace of all analysed teams at 1:10.119, yet finished only 18th overall — a clear illustration of how pit-stop strategy and on-track execution can override raw speed in endurance. Their regularity was also excellent (σ = 0.08 s), making them one of the most consistent teams in the race. DYMOVEE RACING, despite ranking second in pure pace (median 1:10.196, σ = 0.06 s — the tightest consistency figure in the analysis), converted their strategy and execution into the race win, outperforming their pace ranking by one position. S8 RACE BY FISO (#62) demonstrated remarkable lap-time consistency (σ = 0.07 s) for a team finishing 19th, suggesting that their three stops were managed in a controlled and disciplined manner.

At the other end of the spectrum, COOL BEAR TEAM (#47), despite finishing 9th, showed a relatively higher consistency spread (σ = 0.54 s) — by far the widest among the analysed teams — which may reflect more variable stints across the race. ZR RACING (#68) and KCG BY ERT (#30), both on four stops, sat fifth and seventh in pure pace respectively yet finished 43rd and 42nd, underlining how stop count and timing can significantly affect the final classification.

Key takeaways for teams: At Slovak Karting Center, the two-stop strategy clearly rewarded the top finishers, but pace management is equally critical — LVF's example shows that the fastest median rhythm is no guarantee of a high finishing position without optimal stop execution. Lap-time consistency (low σ) proved to be a reliable marker of race control: the three most consistent analysed teams (DYMOVEE RACING, LVF, S8 RACE BY FISO) all maintained σ ≤ 0.08 s. Teams targeting future endurance events here should prioritise regularity and stop efficiency over single-lap pace.
