Have you tried approaching Zelie Airport lately about racing there again? I have a good friend of mine that works for the FAA and he informed me there is a new airport manager running that airport. If you would like more info on this matter you can PM me and I will give you my friends name that works for the FAA. He told me he would approve racing again at Zelie airport if the Airport manager ok'd it.

It sure would be great to race there again. I'll bet you'd get 200 cars there like they did back in the day.

I would like to go to as many as time & the weather allow. Alternative venues sound
like icing on the cake.

Going to try and make it out. Tesla supercharger is planned to open in Washington PA in 2020 which will make my life a lot easier getting to the Waynesburg flashlight drags with full power. Zeli would be a great time though, that was by far the best venue for it.

Wow, Saturdays, thanks for the information. The first date is on Eid al-Fitr(?) My calendar lists this as a U.S. holiday.
Apple states that the exact date is difficult to predict precisely. Maybe I’m
showing my ignorance but I’ve never heard of it. Does it have anything to do with burnouts?

Ok I looked it up, Eid al-Fitr is a Muslim holiday. Nothing to do with burnouts.

When it comes to Clarion I won’t believe it until I’m physically on the runway. That said I really hope it happens. The more events the better.

I’m with you on that.its frustrating they scheduled a race last year.me and my buddy did a lot of setup plus very expensive new tires just for the event and they cancelled it a week before the race .i hope they make it happen this year it would be great to get a circuit put back together like it used to be .
