Supreme thrills for race fans at Open Track on Saturday at BIC

The excitement continues at BIC this weekend with an Open Track event for cars and motorbikes on Saturday.

Open Track is one of the most popular activities on offer for motoring enthusiasts at BIC. It is a non-competitive event that allows drivers to come and explore their very own car’s or motorbike’s performance in a safe, controlled and professional environment.

Driver etiquette is of ultimate importance, so there is no close or aggressive overtaking. Overtaking is by invitation between corners and driving is monitored, with poor or dangerous driving dealt with swiftly by officials.

The event attracts some serious sports cars and bikes that you rarely ever see hitting the streets. Many of the participants come from outside Bahrain, including speed enthusiasts from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman and the UAE.

This Saturday’s Open Track will be held from 12noon until 7pm.

Participants can choose between driving for the full event at BD85 per person, or for just half the day at BD60. A single session can also be availed for BD25. Those who book in advance can take advantage of reduced rates of BD75 for the whole day, BD50 for a half-day and BD20 per session.

Friends or family members accompanying drivers also have a chance to be a part of the action as a passenger. The fee is BD10.

All vehicles must first go through scrutineering before being allowed to take to the track. Participants must also be wearing the appropriate clothing, which includes closed-toe footwear.

Meanwhile, also as a part of Saturday’s Open Track, fans will be able to take on the Jaguar Experience, which is one of the latest and most exciting additions to the circuit’s offerings.

The Jaguar Experience is perfect for driving enthusiasts who want to sample a true British sports car on the most challenging circuit in the Middle East. It is an adventure that is fast-paced and exhilarating, and its unique, tailored drives are conducted in two vehicles of Jaguar’s most popular model, the F-TYPE.

The Jaguar Experience costs BD60 per person.

Furthermore, guests on Saturday will also have the option of trying out a pair of exciting passenger rides in a Renault Clio Cup sports car and/or an SR3 prototype race car. The Clio Cup passenger ride costs BD25, while the SR3 ride is BD35.
