Exciting duels set to light up the BIC drag strip on Friday with race day in round three of Bahrain Drag Racing Championship

Exciting duels set to light up the BIC drag strip on Friday with race day in round three of Bahrain Drag Racing Championship

Bahrain International Circuit (BIC), ‘The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East’, hosts race day on Friday (24 January) in the third round of the 2024/2025 Bahrain Drag Racing Championship.

Drag racers from around the world have been competing over three days from Tuesday to Thursday in Test and Tune and Qualifying. The stage is now set for the heated eliminations, which are scheduled to get underway at 1pm on Friday afternoon.

The series’ competitions will be going head-to-head along BIC’s world-class quarter-mile drag strip – part of the NHRA Worldwide Network of the U.S.-based National Hot Rod Association (NHRA).

The championship is sanctioned by the NHRA, and it is being organised and run by BIC in cooperation with the Bahrain Motor Federation and Bahrain Drag Racing Commission.

With the season reaching its midway point this meeting, the battle in the 14 competition categories for both cars and motorbikes will be heating up.

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.

Fans looking to attend the round can watch the exciting duels on the strip from the Startline Grandstand or the Beyon Grandstand. Tickets to the Startline Grandstand are BD5 and for the Beyon Grandstand are BD3 apiece.

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

Also available to fans attending Friday’s action 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.

The 2024/2025 Bahrain Drag Racing Championship features five rounds. Following Friday’s events, the fourth and penultimate meeting is scheduled for 4 to 7 February, after which the season finale will be taking place from 11 to 14 March.
