Where will you be August 13th?

[Don Martin]

Scaaty racing is in. Time to get this Studebaker salty. Hope-prayers -luck-mother nature Bonneville 2016 please.

Lumpy,
          Just a word of caution.

The big tents generally do not fair well if a storm comes through at the Bend.

We use smaller mountaineering type tents and so far they have survived.

When the storm rolled through during Salt Talks at the 2011 Speedweek a look around in the morning confirmed this.

Don:
I have a 32' class A RV. Is the surface at the Bend solid enough to safely park it there without fear of getting mired?

Varies from day(part) to day(part).  Rain?

[Calkins]

We had a 31' RV in 2013.  We had zero problems getting in and out of The Bend.  There was plenty of room for more campers as well.  In the morning, you simply can not beat the view!!!

I paid the man for my share of our Speed Week trip yesterday, so I am in and oh so ready.  Team SPEEDaSALT will be proudly flying the Iowa flag in impound!!!

I'm stuck across the river in August, but I hope to at least get away to Oshkosh for a few hours on Saturday -

Shooting for WOS as an observer.  I noticed Black Sabbath's tour has a stop in Salt Lake City which coincides with the WOS event.

The Midget won't be ready, but if the event doesn't happen, Ozzie's a good backup plan.

[Seldom Seen Slim]

There's an idea.  Chris, need a passenger on the trip to and from SLC to hear the dulcet harmonies of Ozzie?  I've never been to one of his shows.  It might be entertaining.  Nancy doesn't get time off for WoS so it'd just be me.  I guess the two of us, totaling something like 10 feet 32 inches tall, should be able to fold ourselves into the Midget if you do decide to take it out to the salt.

Otherwise how 'bout if find some kindred souls for the concert and take a bunch of 'em, each paying some $$ for fuel, and we'll stack 'em like cordwood in the back of my pickup and make some money on the trip, too.

Sounds like a plan to me.  You in?

[robfrey]

We are leaving space in our schedule for Speedweek. Our worst nightmare will be another Speedweek rainout and good weather for WOS and the Cook Shootout as we have scheduling conflicts with the IMTS trade show in Chicago which spans both events. Could not ask for worst timing. We had to commit to IMTS 23 months before the event. This was of course well before schedule was made up.
Having the car at the tradeshow is absolutely huge for us and Carbinite does pay for everything so we got to be there.

JUST GOT AROUND TO SENDING IN MEMBERSHIP AND SPEED WEEK APPLICATIONS.  A GOOD FEELING!!!   THIS IS SUCH A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO BE PART OF THIS GREAT VENUE.

PRAY FOR A HOT DRY SUMMER ON THE FLATS.   

[ronnieroadster]

  Speed Week now has rain dates just in case. Thats going to be pretty difficult I bet for many of the racers to plan on just in case! 

[SPARKY]

We are shooting for SW to lisc. UP for my oldest son.

[rouse]

My entry is in for SW.

After the way the "hotels" "Treated" their customers last year, I'm holding up on making reservations till things are more certain.

From what I'm seeing, their new cancellation "fee's" will be higher than the SW entry. Go figure.

Bring on the salt.

    I'll be celebrating my birthday either on the Salt or in Carman's Black and White.

I bit the bullet as a spectator and booked my room, will be there Monday and Tuesday as I will have just finished a race weekend at Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele. Obviously I don't have much of an investment to lose if it all goes sideways but I'm hoping, like the rest of you, that it all falls into place.

[ratpatrol66]

I hope to be out standing on the salt?
