BAHRAIN International Circuit (BIC) is bringing back one of its widely participated events this evening with the Ebrahim K Kanoo Drag and Drift Nights.
The popular double-header returns to ‘The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East’ offering speed enthusiasts the opportunity to take their own cars or motorbikes and push them to their limits down BIC’s world-class quarter-mile drag strip, or power slide around BIC’s exciting Vehicle Dynamics Area.
There is also the option for participants to enjoy both experiences, making for twice the thrills in one action-packed event.
Today’s event takes place from 6pm to 11pm.
The BIC strip is regarded as one of the best in all of drag racing, and it is a part of the prestigious Worldwide Network under the banner of the US-based National Hot Rod Association (NHRA).
The Vehicle Dynamics Area boasts a specially configured layout at BIC’s car park for the drifters. Surrounded by safety barriers, it is one of the largest open tarmac areas in Bahrain and an ideal location for drifting enthusiasts to showcase their skills.
Both the drag and the drift can be enjoyed for a fee of BD11. Participation in just the drag racing or just the drifting costs BD8.
Registration for participants will be done on site from 5pm. Those who would like to experience the drag or drift as a passenger can get into a participant’s car for an additional BD4.500.
Spectators can purchase tickets online at bahraingp.com for BD2 apiece. Tickets for children aged 12 and below are BD1 each.
In addition to the Drag and Drift, also available is BIC’s adrenaline-pumping passenger ride, the Dragster Experience, also known as “the fastest ride on earth!”
Fans will have a chance to get a taste of pure speed as they are taken from zero to 100kph in just one second while seated in a Top Dragster. The Dragster Experience is available at BD44 for the first passenger while the second passenger can get 50 per cent off.
