Re: bonneville visit
I am ashamed to say that I have lived my whole life three hours from the Bonneville Salt Flats and have never been there for the speed trials. Just driven by on the freeway.
 I loved the movie "The World's Fastest Indian" with Anthony Hopkins playing New Zealander Burt Munro who spent years building a 1920 Indian motorcycle -- a bike which helped him set the world land-speed record at Utah's Bonneville Salt Flats in 1967. If you haven't seen it and have any interest in "tweaking" an engine to go fast, this is a must see.
