Now this sounds very very interesting. The same cars, the same track, the same conditions! A true rarity in the world of motorsport and made possible thanks to the efforts of Red Bull and the Saudi Motorsport federation (amongst others). Ras B Ras – which is happening on Wednesday, November 23rd in Al-Khobar, Saudi Arabia – is a knockout motorsport competition, the first of it’s kind in the Middle East and will feature the best Arab motorsport champions racing head to head, deploying all of their skills on a closed track.

The competition will consist of four rounds, each featuring a different car category which the contestants will have to tame, until one final winner has been crowned. The Red Bull Ras B Ras track will be a unique tarmac circuit specially customised for the race in Khobar Plaza, running 800m-long and consisting of two parallel lanes and a crossover bridge, allowing two contestants to race simultaneously, covering the same distance. For those of you that have watched the Race of Champions, you will get what we are talking about.

Here is a wicked little video to whet your appetite and stay tuned for more pics and vids from the event.
