Drag and Drift thrills in E K Kanoo event Monday night at BIC

Bahrain International Circuit (BIC), “The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East”, hosts on Monday night (March 4) the Ebrahim K Kanoo Drag and Drift Night, offering motorsport enthusiasts twice the thrills in this action-packed double-header. 

In this event, participants will get the chance to take their very own cars or motorbikes and push them to their limit in a safe and controlled environment, either down the drag strip or around a drifting course, or both.

BIC’s world-class quarter-mile strip is a member of the prestigious National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) Worldwide Network, and it will host the drag runs. The drifting venue is a specially configured facility at BIC’s car park number five.

Both the drag and the drifting can be enjoyed for a single fee of BD10.500. Participation in just the drag racing or just the drifting costs BD7.500. Registration can be done on site from 5pm, and the action will be held from 6pm to 11pm.

Those who would like to experience the drag or drift as a passenger can get into a participant’s car for an additional BD4. Spectators can purchase tickets for BD2 apiece.

Also as part of the evening’s drag racing programme, BIC is offering the immensely thrilling Dragster Experience. This is one of the circuit’s most unique and ultimate-adrenaline activities, as it gives participants 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 costs BD42, while in a current special offer, a second participant can join in on the heart-stopping activity for half the price.

Safety standards of the highest level are followed at all times during the evening’s events for both drivers and spectators alike.
