The unique Put-in-Bay Sports Car Races runs on a small airport on an island in Lake Erie, a 20-minute ferry ride from the U.S. mainland. It pays homage to the road races held during the 1950s on South Bass Island with a big annual event at Put-in-Bay Airport. It also takes place during the week as the population of 150 or so expands dramatically during the weekend with an influx of tourists.
