The top-performing motor on the Misari water surface this season has been identified as No. 109.

Motor No. 109 ranked first in both average finishing points and second-place rate.

In keumnyun, the motor is a variable just as important as the rider's skill and the course.

As riders' skills have become more evenly matched, the impact of differences in motor performance on Gyeongju results has also grown. In particular, the motors currently deployed in Gyeongju are 2024 models, and they are scheduled to be replaced at the end of this season, making it necessary to review their past performance. Based on records through the 42nd race meeting of the year, we examined the motors that achieved outstanding results.

Based on performance through the 42nd race meeting, the most standout motor is undoubtedly No. 109. It recorded 60 first-place finishes, 19 second-place finishes, and 15 third-place finishes in a total of 123 appearances, ranking first overall with an average finishing point score of 7.46. Its win rate was 48.8% and its second-place rate was 64.2%, while its top-three finish rate reached 76.4%.

Motor No. 109 also demonstrated strong performance in major races. At the King of Kings held in June this year, it delivered a victory to Kim Wan-seok (Class 10, A1). With this win, Kim Wan-seok stood atop the King of Kings for the first time in four years since 2022.

The motor ranked second in average finishing points is No. 10, with a score of 7. It recorded 37 first-place finishes, 34 second-place finishes, and 18 third-place finishes in a total of 124 appearances. While its win rate stands at 29.8%, its second-place rate and top-three finish rate reach 57.3% and 71.8%, respectively.

Third place is held by Motor No. 19, with an average finishing point score of 6.99. It recorded 58 first-place finishes, 23 second-place finishes, and 16 third-place finishes in a total of 139 appearances.

Several keumnyun officials stated, "Motor No. 109 is essentially a guaranteed winner for this season. Even if the rider does not have the skill to compete for the win, anyone assigned Motor No. 109 should always be considered in the top ranks."
