The Bonneville Salt Flats Finally Have Enough Salt For Speed Week

Yep, Mickey Thompson's son just recorded a speed over 400MPH out there earlier this month.

It has been on the news a few times recently here in Salt Lake. It has been tracking the story of Danny Thompson setting the land speed record his Dad never fully set.

This article had some youtube links to Danny Thompson's engine dynoing if you want to take a look

My only regret was not getting the time freed up to drive for an hour out there and spectate. :(
