Bahrain International Circuit (BIC), “The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East”, keeps things busy at its world-class NHRA drag strip with the Kanoo Motors Rolling Drag Nights on Thursday ( January 30).
Similar to BIC’s Ebrahim K Kanoo Drag and Drift Nights, Rolling Drag offers participants the chance to power their very own cars or motorbikes down the circuit’s quarter-mile strip, which is a member of the US-based National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) Worldwide Network.
The major difference in Rolling Drag is that those who take part do not start from a standstill, but from a rolling speed of 80kph.
Rolling Drag is therefore the perfect activity to invite a friend or more and then challenge them for a series of head-to-head battles within a safe and controlled environment.
Thursday’s Kanoo Motors Rolling Drag Nights is scheduled to take place between 7pm and midnight. Registration will be held at BIC’s car park no. two, and it will be open from 5pm until 9pm.
The cost to participate is BD20 for each driver or rider. There is an additional fee of BD5 for a service car and BD7 for an accompanying passenger. Spectators can watch all the action for a nominal entry fee of BD2. Tickets are sold at Car Parks 4 and 2.
Just as in every BIC activity, safety standards of the highest level are followed at all times during the evening’s events for both drivers and spectators alike.
