We are relative newbies. Our Editor in chief has only started going to Bonneville in 1975 but we don’t ever remember a string of bad luck such as we have endured over the past five years. However, despite another year of rain, many racers braved the conditions and thanks to the SCTA-BNI and their amazing team of volunteers were able to pull off the event.
TorqTalk tagged along to observe the teams of Brit Geoff Stilwell with his record-holding 7707 blown fuel rear-engine modified roadster, CadZZilla designer Larry Erickson and his 776 team and Bruce Wanta with his roadster pickup prepared by Troy Ladd’s Hollywood Hot Rods. It was a struggle for all.
Unlike 2022, when we arrived to superb conditions only to have torrential rains wash out the event before it even started, this year we arrived to an already flooded lake. Many racers who had traveled from as far away as Japan, England, and Europe chose to turn around and head home but just as many chose to battle Mother Nature-guess who won?
