Bonneville Salt Flats

 

We will be heading down to Vegas in September, and will be at the Bonneville Salt Flats (Wendover, Utah) during Speed Week! I'm actually more interested in the geology than the racing, but we stumbled on to September Speed Week last year and thought it was a blast.

The Salt Flats are actually rougher than I expected, and I was amazed at some of the vehicles that were out on the "track". You can race pretty well anything so long as it passes the safety test. But we just bought a new Taurus, so we're only goingt as spectators.

I hear they are building a Speedway Museum, which is sorely needed to present the fantastic history of this location.
