Team VegasVettes at the Bonneville 100
This
event is run on Highway 93A out of Wendover, NV, home of the famous Bonneville
Salt Flats. This beautifully maintained and very fast highway runs southwest out
of Wendover for 50 miles. On the first leg, racers will climb almost 2000 feet
in altitude, from 4400 to 6200 feet; then, after a short turnaround, the racers
head back towards Wendover, racing full throttle downhill! If you are racing as
a team, you can each take a turn at the wheel, as driver changes are allowed at
the turnaround. Straightaway speeds on this road are expected to exceed 200 MPH
for the super-fast "King of the Hill" 170 mph Class cars!
