Drag and Drift Night back in action on Monday

ManamaThe E KKanoo Drag and Drift Night, powered by Motor City, returns on Monday at Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) in Sakhir.

It is the first double-header of the new season and brings two of the most popular forms of motorsport together and allowing drag racing and drifting enthusiasts to take their own cars or motorbikes. It 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 the drag racing, while for the drifting a special course along BIC’s car park will stage all the action.

Both activities can be enjoyed for a single fee or just the drag racing or the drifting.

Those who would like to experience the drag or drift as a passenger can get into a friend’s car for an additional fee for each event and spectators can purchase tickets to witness the action.

Also as part of the drag racing programme, the immensely popular Dragster Xperience is available which 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.

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