BangShift.com Coverage of the 2009 Bonneville Speed Week Starts NowBy Chad Posted 08/08/09
It's almost midnight in Wendover, Utah, on August 7, and I just arrived in town (late, as usual) to start off the BangShift.com coverage of the SCTA/BNI 2009 Bonneville Speed Week. Racing starts after the drivers' meeting tomorrow morning, and I'll be there on the starting line and in the pits bringing you breaking news, photo galleries, and videos for most of the week. Keep checking back for more!
While I got here too late to see the big hot rod cruise in front of the Stateline Casino (it's the Nugget now, but everyone knows Stateline), there were still a few rods in the lot, so the coverage starts below with a quick video and some snapshots of cars that have obviously already been out on the damp Salt. It's drizzling a tiny bit right now, hopefully for the last time this week!

Track down the C/STR Yellow roadster # 531.... chat with those guys.... they ran 202mph at Loring (sounded KILLER!), then trucked it cross country and are there in B'ville in your gallery pics.

Chad, we're counting on ya' buddy. Thanks for keeping us up-to-date this week.
Am I correct that you really don't have a hot rod at Bonneville unless it has salt all over it? If I remember correctly salt on the engine counts double. ::) ;D ;)
Thank you Chad, wish I was there. Maybe next time we would have more time to BS. You were quite busy last year gettin ready for your debut as a LSR driver.
Have a ice cold beer and Take lots of Pics...Oh yea YOU SUCK , wish I was there! Doug
