Anything you want, mate. There is not dresscode for a camel race. It is very good fun. but is basically robotic jockeys racing camels for a very long distance. The distance they race is based on the age of the camel, and if I remember correctly there are around 4 to 5kms per race.

They don't use enslaved Sudanese boys? That's no fun.
