A Record of the Passionate Exchange at Lipo Circuit in Taiwan
If you love the racetrack and enjoy watching world-class riders' rhythm and handling details, then this exchange event at the Lipo Circuit in Taiwan is definitely worth recording.Invited by an auto parts supplier, this event brought together several top Japanese riders to Taiwan for track exchange and competition, including current MotoGP riders Ai Ogura, Sodo Hamahara, and Motoharu Ito, as well as current Moto3 rider Zen Mitani. This group of top riders gathered in Taiwan to exchange riding techniques and track experience with local enthusiasts at the Lipo Circuit, creating a truly exhilarating atmosphere.
World-Class Pace Descends on Lihpao｜Ai Ogura Clocks a 54-Second Lap
Ai Ogura Clocks a 54-Second Lap
Under unofficial timing conditions, current MotoGP rider Ai Ogura once again posted an astonishing 54-second lap time.
Even though it was not an official timed run, the performance still highlights a world-class rider’s exceptional control of pace, racing line selection, and precise acceleration on corner exits.
For many riders at the track, being able to witness MotoGP-level speed and riding technique up close was a rare experience, and it offered a clearer understanding of where the true gap lies between being “top-tier” and simply “fast.”
Moto3 Rising Star Shines on the Same Stage
Zen Mitani Shows Composed yet Aggressive Form
Beyond Ai Ogura’s stunning performance, current Moto3 rider Zen Mitani also demonstrated impressive capability during the event.
His pace was consistent, his movements clean and precise, and his riding style clearly aggressive. In particular, his control during corner entry and direction changes stood out, leaving a strong impression on many riders at the track.
This exchange was not merely a contest of speed, but more like a live on-track masterclass. From vision and line choice to throttle control and body positioning, every detail was worth studying and learning from.
Unified Race Bike Setup
CBR250RR × aRacer ECU Full Racing System
All motorcycles used in this exchange were Honda CBR250RR models configured as a unified race platform, paired with aRacer ECU and a complete racing system.
Even under high-intensity riding and repeated lap-time attacks, the setup consistently delivered stable, precise, and reliable performance.
On the racetrack, outright speed is not the only metric that matters. What truly withstands long-term validation in a racing environment is stability and consistency. The ability to provide dependable control under high RPM, high temperatures, and heavy load conditions is where professional-grade racing electronics prove their real value.
The Track Is the Truest Proving Ground for Technology
From international circuits to tracks across Taiwan, the racetrack has always been the most demanding testing platform for technology.
Whether it’s a rider’s rhythm and riding ability, or the stability and precision of a motorcycle’s electronic control systems, everything is magnified and put to the test at every corner entry and every burst of acceleration on corner exit.
That’s why aRacer continues to stand alongside riders and racers with race-proven electronic control technology—helping them push beyond their limits in every challenge.
