I know some on this forum are interested in this event. I posted this on the HAMB, too, but I know most here, don't make it over there.

This just in. The LTA has been approved to hold their meet in mid-July. Registration and inspection will be on Friday, July 15th. Racing will be the 16 & 17th. Monday the 18th will be a rain date, if needed. These new dates should make it easier for racers going to Bonneville, a chance to test and tune, with plenty of time to get to the salt.
Very good news.

Here's a link to the LTA's web site. This news, is so new, it hasn't made the web site yet, but there is some good info about the event here.
