The my-KART Mega Enduro series was introduced in 2005 to add a teamworking element into the my-KART race series. The Mega Enduro series is run separately from the drivers' championship KART series. Typically a Enduro team comprises 4 drivers with an aggregate minimum weight. The race is run non-stop over a pre-determined period of time.
The Mega Enduro series aims to encourage other people to join my-KART race events as team members are required to look for drivers to participate and hence spreads the word around. It also enhances the membership bonding as drivers work together towards a common goal.
The Mega Enduro series emphasises consistency, race craft, adaptability, team strategy in addition to the prerequisites of individual driver racing skill.
As with all my-KART series, the Mega Enduro series emphasises the spirit of sportsmanship and camaraderie.
The details and rules of the Mega Enduro series are contained within this section.
The main regulations are defined separately.

The teams will be required to stop on the grid at the designated positions by the track marshalls, and will be green flagged once the next team is within 3 kart lengths behind.
4.3 Kart failures on the formation lap: Any kart failure on the formation lap will not cause the start to be aborted, unless there are special circumstances deemed by the race director appropriate for a re-start (eg, multiple kart failures).
4.4 Aborted Start: This will be allowed under special circumstances. If the start is aborted, the re-start follows the same normal starting procedure.
The race length is 90 minutes. The teams are required to change drivers (mandatory) during each of the 3 pitstop windows. The pitstop windows will be 10 minutes long each, and will be spaced equally apart during the full race duration.
6.1 When to refuel: Each team may need to refuel during the course of the race. The team will need to determine when is the most appropriate time for the refuelling to take place. Refuelling can be carried out at any time deemed appropriate by the team during the race.

The team's minimum weight requirement will be reduced by 10kgs for every female driver in the team.
