Gulfrun Car show was organized this weekend by Pro Vision at marina crescent as a part of the annual event Gulfrun where Kuwaiti drivers rent the Bahrain international circuit (F1 track) to race and compete in a regulated and safe environment.

You can find some more pictures I took in the car show in this flickr Set.
