Cars at Speed Week Thur. Aug 2008 on Bonneville Salt Flats waiting to run for a timed record & GENE WINFIELD C GAS ROADSTER from Mahjove CA- being filmed by Discover Channel
??? Depend on the year and weather in July. The salt flats are not a National Park but are BLM territory. If they were a National Park they would not have been mined for ninety years with minimal salt left to race on.
actually the salt flat causes alot of problems , inclucing exsesive wheel spin outs, lots of lack of traction amongst other things,, plus heaps of drag
its a national park, so they will never pave it. on a dry day the salt is VERY smooth and flat. with high humidity it gets soft and bumpy. it gets groomed for speed week, like a ski slope. it is 45 square miles of flat go fast fun!
SAVE THE SALT! Stop mining the salt flats so we can run our cars!

Oh, I couldnt just take my car there the way it is? It's having some work done do the engine, but I know it'll do 130 at least after all the mods.

you can try the 130 club or the 150 club, you will have to modify your car to enter both. Check out USFRA web site for rules.
