Burke Lakefront Airport in Cleveland, Ohio, United States has been used by IndyCar since July 4, 1982. A fully functioning airport the rest of the year and shut down for the event, the race was very popular amongst fans, as the long, wide, runways allowed for side-by-side racing, fast speeds, and superb passing zones around the entire track.
First seen in sim racing with IndyCar Racing (1993).
