  • Our week long journey has led us to the 2022 Bonneville Speed Week. Our Salt Life was in full force for a short time only as the rains came. The salt was then no more as it was flooded and the racing this year was cancelled. However, for us it was amazing to reach our destination in the Speed and Design 56 Ford F100. In this episode we check out the race cars in the pits and those going through inspection. It was an amazing trip and great to meet so many new friends from the US, England, New Zealand and more countries.

      Thank you for watching. It was great to have met Buck there at the Salt Flats and we were surprised he had been following along our trip we had been posting on Instagram to that point.

    Watching this with a big smile on my face as I see so many familiar cars out there. Most of the racers run the same car for many years so you get to know them over time.
    It was fun to see you as a first timer and your reaction as well. I'm sure you'll be back. Once you catch salt fever it is hard to shake. 👍

      We will definitely be back again and make it a big road trip experience like we did this time. So many cool cars and people there.

    That's cool to see a kiwi there . I was in the world's fastest Indian movie . I was in the biker gang in the movie that raced Burt on the beach and would love to go there one day soon

      Very cool! Thanks for sharing. It is definitely worth the experience and like being on another planet and surreal with that bright white salt and surrounding mountains.

      This would have been the 33rd year for me & my new AA/BFS was ready to go but shit can happen at Bonneville!

    Its been a dream of mine to be on the salt with my 40 ford.

    You being “ young” surrounding yourself with great hotrods is nice to see. I’m 62 and surrounded myself at an early age by these same type rods. Hope I’m wrong but I don’t see the enthusiasm nowadays.
    Question - the 55 car, was that George Poteet’s at one time?

    • @OpposingCylinders
      @OpposingCylinders  Před 2 lety +1

      The enthusiasm is still there with places we have been and with people we know. Yes, the 55 Car was originally owned by Poteet. It is such a killer car and sounds amazing. See our previous two videos for more on the 55 Car.

    I’m sure it’s a lot of fun but when your all done you have to completely disassemble your car or M/C to clean it properly or watch it rust away. No Thanks !

    Cool man! Any vids coming of the runs? Thanks

    • @OpposingCylinders

      The races were cancelled due to rain. The salt flats became a lake. They never did race this year due to rain that night and the next day or two.
