MOTORSPORT fans looking for some action and excitement are invited to take part in the E K Kanoo Drag and Drift Night at Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) today in Sakhir.
Sponsored by Ebrahim K Kanoo and powered by Motor City, this hugely popular event brings two of the most popular forms of motorsport together at “The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East”.
E K Kanoo Drag and Drift Night calls on drag racing and drifting enthusiasts to take their very own cars or motorbikes and push them to their limit while in a safe and controlled environment.
BIC’s world-class quarter-mile drag strip, which is a member of the prestigious National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) Worldwide Network, will play host to Monday’s drag racing. For the drifting, a special course along BIC’s car park will stage all the action.
Both of today’s activities can be enjoyed for a single fee of BD10.
Cost
Participation in just the drag racing or just the drifting costs BD7. 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 friend’s car for an additional BD4 for each event. Spectators can purchase tickets for BD2 apiece.
Also as part of the drag racing programme today, BIC will also be offering the immensely popular Dragster Xperience.
This is one of the circuit’s most unique and ultimate 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 Xperience costs BD40 per person.
Safety standards of the highest level are followed at all times throughout the evening’s events for both drivers and spectators alike.
