Had a brief conversation with Bob Waitz tonight about Bonneville.The salt is
very good and he expects some 400MPH runs before the trials are over.Lange
broke valves and is out.Bloomberg broke a crank and is out but drove the
Pantera Kids car and qualified to make a 200MPH run tomorrow.
As for the Salt2Salt effort they have made 4 runs,nothing has broken and
they have upped their class record to 127.001MPH.
Bob's phone was getting low on batteries and he still had to call his wife
so I dont have any other news.Bob will call me again if their car continues
to up the record and give more details concerning Stude efforts at the salt.
Kudo's to all who make the effort!!

Thanks for the update. I have been keeping up with landracing.com but
saw only one result for Salt2Salt and did not see the back up run for
the new record listed.  For those who are not familiar with
landracing.com it is a good place to get pretty good daily updates
about Speed Week.  Just go to the red Speed Week link.

This a second site for pictures for 2006 Bonneville Speed Week.  A few
Studes and a lot of cool stuff.
