Additionally, the more performance-oriented KZ2 category, which also included the Masters for drivers over 35 years old, was part of the event.

MINI Gr.3 – A double surprise: Gorski wins the Final, Ratajski the title.
The MINI Gr.3 had an incredible conclusion and the American Alessandro Truchot (#512 BabyRace/Parolin-Iame-Vega) saw a nearly certain title slip away despite his leadership in the standings and his performance in the heats. But it was the always competitive Leonardo Gorski (#521 Tony Kart Racing Team/Tony Kart-Vortex) who disrupted Truchot's plans, staging a remarkable comeback in the final to clinch victory. The Frenchman Stan Ratajski, Truchot's teammate, also played a pivotal role, skillfully gaining important positions, aided by a penalty imposed on another BabyRace driver, Mexican Santiago Diaz De La Vega. In the Final, Gorski finished ahead of the Ukrainian Oleksandr Legenkyi (#553 Team Driver/KR-Iame) and Stan Ratajski, but the latter found himself at the top of the standings with a two-point lead over Truchot.
