I would doubt that, as the course is only set up and waivered during PRS and the actual races.

Guys...
I'm new here, but keep track of "Miss A" as I live nearby, and also
do the announcing for her at airshows!
"Doc" Hisey and his crew have "Miss A" in the hanger right now, next to Doc's newest addition, a "fat-face" Spad (Skyraider), and the CAF's
down-on-it's-luck P-63F.
Also, the main racer in that film, Gary Baker's P-51A, was the plane that was destroyed at Oshkosh, killing the pilot (was it Baker himself, as i fear?).
