Drag racers back for more intense action on the quarter-mile this week at BIC

Drag racers back for more intense action on the quarter-mile this week at BIC

The spotlight shines on Bahrain International Circuit’s (BIC) quarter-mile drag strip this week as the fourth and penultimate round of the 2024/2025 Bahrain Drag Racing Championship takes place from Tuesday to Friday (4 to 7 February) in Sakhir.

The region’s biggest and most popular drag racing series returns to action at ‘The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East’, and the intensity is set to go up a notch with the campaign headed into the home stretch.

Drag racers from all over the world are set to descend upon BIC for this hugely exciting meeting, which is organised by BIC in cooperation with the Bahrain Motor Federation and the Bahrain Drag Racing Commission.

Action begins with Test and Tune on Tuesday and Wednesday. Tuesday’s session is scheduled for a 6pm start while Wednesday’s will kick off from 4pm.

Qualifying will then be held on Thursday from 4pm onwards, setting the elimination ladders for race day on Friday, which is scheduled to kick off at 3pm.

Fans looking to attend the round can watch the excitement on the strip from the Startline Grandstand and the Beyon Grandstand.

Tickets to the Startline Grandstand are BD5 for both qualifying and race day. Tickets for Test and Tune are BD2 apiece for both days to the Beyon Grandstand, while tickets for qualifying and race day are BD3 per person for both nights along the Beyon Grandstand.

Tickets can be purchased online at bahraingp.com, by calling the BIC Hotline on +973-17450000, or at the gate.

The championship is sanctioned by the U.S.-based National Hot Rod Association (NHRA), and BIC is a member of the prestigious NHRA Worldwide Network.

Racing this season is being held in 14 categories for both cars and motorbikes. The cars classes include the Index 7.5, Pro 29.5 V8, Outlaw 4 Cylinder, Outlaw 6 Cylinder, Index 10.00, Index 9.00, Index 8.50, Competition 4.5, and Pro Mod; while the motorbike classes are Pro Street Bike, Street Fight 9.5, Index 8.5 Bike, Outlaw Bike, and Street Fight.

Also available to fans attending this week’s meeting is the Dragster Experience – BIC’s most adrenaline-pumping passenger activity. Known as ‘the Fastest Ride on Earth’, this offers fans the chance to get a taste of pure speed as they are taken from zero to 100kph in just one second while in the cockpit of a 10,500cc Top Dragster. It can be enjoyed individually or by two passengers at a time.

The Dragster Experience is available at BD44 for a first passenger, while a second passenger can join for half the price.

Following this week’s action, the curtain comes down on the 2024/2025 Bahrain Drag Racing Championship with the season-finale, scheduled to be held from 11 to 14 March.
