Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah. The salt flats are located 10 miles East of Wendover, Utah. At one time the course covered over 100,000 acres and the salt depth was over 36 inches. Today the salt flats are closer to 26,000 acres and the salt is three to four inches deep. In some places the mud shows through the salt. The old "International Course" was 13 miles long. Currently we have only seven miles left to race on. The "SAVE THE SALT" campaign has been successful in that Riley Company, which has mining rights to ship the salt to the east coast for winter roads, has been ordered by a Federal Court ruling to start a resalting program designed to put .4" of salt back on the race course each year. Eventually we expect to get some distance back and we may once again see the very fast cars breaking records.

Due to the limited useable distance afforded by this site, the NAE will not run here.

We invite you to add a comment, or remark, about our program or the site.
