READ THE PASSAGE
As you read the passage, make predictions about the future of racing in Utah.
Bonneville Salt Flats
The Bonneville Salt Flats in northern Utah is an area so vast, flat, and barren that you can see the 
curvature of Earth on clear days. These salt flats, stretching over roughly 160 square miles, formed during 
the last Ice Age (15,000 years ago) when a lake the size of Lake Michigan covered the entire area. The 
Bonneville Salt Flats and the Great Salt Lake are all that is left of that ancient lake. Today, a shallow layer 
of standing water floods the surface of the salt flats each winter. Then, during spring and summer, the 
water slowly evaporates while winds smooth the surface into a vast, almost perfectly flat plain.
The region’s potential for racing was first recognized in 1914 when an automobile speed record of 
141 miles per hour was set there. By 1949, the speedway on the Bonneville Salt Flats was the standard 
course for world land-speed records. On this straightaway, land-speed barriers were broken for 300, 400, 
500, and 600 miles per hour. In the 1960s, jet-powered vehicles attracted millions of people around the 
world. In 1970, the rocket car “Blue Flame” was clocked at an amazing 622 miles per hour.
Typically, speed trials are held throughout the summer and fall at the Bonneville Speedway. 
Competitors race cars, motorcycles, and various other contraptions. Most events are open to the public, 
but there are no visitor services or lodging accommodations available. This world-famous destination 
continues to be simply a dry, flat place where people can fly on land.
