Bonneville 2015 Update - FRP

Hey All,
I am sure most of you have herd the depressing news that Speed Week 2015 was cancelled due to over mining of salt from flats. There was a huge exposed mud flow where the courses are normally set up.
It is undetermined at this point if there will be any way to salvage the fall World Finals event. As impossible as it is to believe the mining may have irreparably damaged the course area. Whether another area can be found or whether natural or man made repairs are possible are unknown at this point.
I am waiting on word from the SCTA as to the chances of the fall event being run. This event is always an iffy deal due to the timing of the fall
rains setting back in.
The race car is ready. Due to my need to provide sponsor exposure I am considering entering the October Texas Mile event.
Thanks again for all the support and we will be at Speed Week next year if there is a place to hold it.
