Auto Time Trials at the Siren Airport Runway

P1150516

If you drove by the Siren Airport on Hwy 35 last Saturday, you saw a sea of automobile activity! Some classic collector cars were there for show and others were there to prove their speed. It was the first of what may be an annual event – time trial drag racing. The airport was allowed to shut down one runway to use for the speedsters, who were clocked by radar. Racing enthusiasts hope that next year, there will be side-by-side racing for even more excitement. If you love the smells and sounds of burning rubber, you’ll want to put this on your calendar for next year! – Wanda Boldon
