YAS DRAG ROLL RACING

You don’t need to be an expert racer to have fun on the drag strip. Why not unleash your wild-side in the safe and controlled environment of our accredited track?

Perfect for rookies, cars roll from the starting line, and only start picking up speed at the first gate. Then, when the lights go green, racers let loose and go head-to-head down the strip. Using the Circuit’s unique state-of-the-art timing system drivers will be able to monitor their times.

Yas Drag Roll Nights are perfect for testing your acceleration, sharpening your drag skills and having a good time with other drag racing fans in UAE.
