Bahrain International Circuit will host another exciting edition of the E K Kanoo Drag and Drift Night, powered by Motor City, in Sakhir on Monday (Editor’s note: December 8).
E K Kanoo Drag and Drift Night calls on drag racing and drifting enthusiasts alike to take their very own cars or motorbikes and push them to their limit within a completely safe setting at BIC.
Sponsored by Ebrahim K Kanoo and powered by Motor City, scores of fans flock to BIC at each event either to take part or watch others in action.
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 the action.
Safety standards of the highest level are followed at all times during the evening’s events for both drivers and spectators.
As part of the drag racing programme, BIC will also be offering the immensely popular Dragster Xperience. 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 Xperience costs BD40 per person.
Also on Monday night, drifters will be showcasing their car control skills as they attempt to swerve and powerslide across the tarmac.
Both of Monday’s activities can be enjoyed for a single fee of BD10. Participation in just the drag racing or just the drifting costs BD7. 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.
