The other party descends dual here though usual gymkhana is a competition at time, and previously reaching a goal wins. It divides into a basic ERK1 class and the ERK2 class of the high-power, and, first of all, six each team trials. The team with a lot of numbers of victories can advance to the tournament.

It runs through from the final corner in a straight home by opening completely after it dances (chase?), and the tension to the velocity championship has been improved to the character of eight with two at a dash.
