Bonneville Motorcycle Speed Trials 2023 CANCELLED

Bonneville Motorcycle Speed Trials 2023, FIM Land Speed World Records and AMA Land Speed Grand Championship is Cancelled. Our assessment team has reviewed current Bonneville Salt Flat conditions since remnants of Hurricane Hilary and related storm systems delivered significant rain on the Bonneville Salt Flats during the past 24 hours.

However, as of August 21st the remnants of Hurricane Hilary contributed to a series
