I hope the salt lakes don't fill with water before they get there - that would slow them up.

What no country buggy records to be broken????
imagine how fast with the windscreen down... lol

A Very Long way to go Bill......

If it fills with water Jeff.... No Racing...

the water has to evaporate....

They have the same problems over at Bonneville in the USA...

although it takes them a while to get the track ready in the USA...
