Anyone been and able to give me any tips or advice?

Take plenty of factor 50

I know a fair few that have been & one day I'll get there.....hopefully.

Someone said to me "Take lots of sun cream and lots of drink..............or take lots of money!"

From their website and bearing in mind the size of the place, I get the impression that its quite relaxed in so far as you can wonder around the pits etc.

What I'm not sure about is whether there's more than 1x track and separate pit areas etc.

I'm assuming we'll be able to drive out to close to the pit area(?)

Wonder if there's a 'run what you brung' class for rental cars

Vette - Thanks for the info, that'll be a great help.

Just arrived in Salt Lake City to be greeted with news that there's no racing until Monday, which is when we're due to be flying out!!!!!!

Bonneville program was Thu/Fri course preparation and set-up with racing beginning 10am Sat.

Due to the Salt being too wet they plan to start course prep tomorrow (Sat) and will let competitors set up their pits and scrutineer on Sunday, with racing beginning 10am Monday.....so long as salt dries sufficiently and prep goes to [revised] plan.

A LONG way to come and not see any racing!

Hopefully we'll see all the racers in the pits, but not quite the same as seeing them in action.

For those interested there's live streaming of the action (when it begins) here
