It's a wrap for the four back to back rounds of the Arabian Drag Racing League that was held at Qatar Racing Club.

Al Anabi's Sheikh Khalid bin Hamad Al Thani driving a hemi powered 16 chevy corvette,broke the world record with a new ET 5.736s at 249.49mph in Quarter Mile, lifting the title of the fastest Pro Modified in the world during the final round of the ADRL 2015-2016 season.

Saudi's Khalid Dossary on his 08 Suzuki Hayabusa kept his winning ways alive to the last round of the ADRL, by outriding Misfer Al Misfer to lift season champion in the Real street category.
