Soggy Salt @ 8/4/07

It's a little soggy at the "end of the road" (WHERE THE PAVEMENT ONTO THE SALT STOPS) The S.C.T.A, has a web page with updates on th condition of the Salt for racing. http://www.scta-bni.org/SCTA-NewWeb/Bonneville/SpeedWeek_07/Salt_Update.html There are three events a year to try to get a shot at dry salt--Aug, Sept, Oct Aug is usualy the best bet, and the later it gets in the year the higher the chance for water on the course. Keep an eye on the Weather in Wendover Utah for the conditions near the Bonneville Salt Flats. If you have a "DRY DANCE"----do it now! Here is a report from a friend-- There is a lot of water on the salt right now. There are some SCTA board members and they are waiting for more. They will make a decision sometime later today, from what I can tell, about whether Speed Week will happen or not. About 10 days ago right at the beginning of the 'monsoonal' blurp that went through....one really wet storm took a path across Reilly and right up the race course. There has since been additional storms in and around the salt. There has also been a lot of wind and heat too. Since we have a few more storms scheduled in the next couple days we are all just waiting.
