Thanks to the generosity of the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA), Save the Salt will have 60-foot booth in the Central Hall along the wall at the 2018 SEMA Show in Las Vegas.  Attendees will have a chance to discuss why salt replenishment efforts at the Bonneville Salt Flats are at a critical juncture in order to save amateur land speed racing.

Save the Salt Booth 24099
Tuesday, Oct. 30 - Friday, Nov. 2, 2018  
Las Vegas Convention Center Central Hall

Two amazing vehicles will be displayed at the Save the Salt booth --

The 1934 “911” Ford highboy roadster with a 4,000+ horsepower engine hit 301-mph at the Bonneville Salt Flats.  It is owned by Dave Davidson and his team includes John Beck and Donny Cummins. The Guthrie-Levie Racing sidecar motorcycle will also be on display—John Levie reached an incredible top speed of 320.304 mph in this unique vehicle.

On Wednesday and Thursday meet owner/builder Rick Vesco and driver Dave Spangler of the Turbinator II, the first wheel-driven car to exceed 500 mph!  They will be signing autographs from 11am to 3pm each day.

Visitors will have chance to bid on a one-of-a-kind chronograph Ball watch made specifically for Save the Salt (Thank You Danny Thompson) and author John Baechtel donated 5 copies of his new book "Goldenrod - The Resurrection of America's Speed King" the help fundraising efforts.
