Pierre,

I believe thats the Indycar race at Barbers Motorsports Park. There is a really nice motorcycle collection housed there as well. I can't answer you question about an airport.

Thanks,
Pell City would be the closest small airport and it's not that close. This is a beautiful track and should be a fun trip.

I'd suggest KBHM....easy rental car and a straight shot to Barber, maybe 10 miles on I-20.
