Main donated 2000 books to the foundation for the initial offering and will continue to provide an income flow through book sales. The book can be purchased at http:\/\/www.bonnevillecenturyofspeed.com\/buy-the-book\/.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>What began as a 50 page effort, the book turned into an amazing collection of 300 pages of images, history and great stories from the 1914 Bonneville runs of Teddy Tetzlaff at 141 miles per hour in the Blitzen Bens to George Poteet\u2019s 439.024 mile per hour wheel-driven, piston-engined car record in the Poteet and Main Speed Demon. Main is determined in his effort to get the Bonneville Salt Flats back to what he remembers when he first caught \u201csalt fever\u201d 25 years ago.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I first came here (the Salt Flats), the salt surface was 4 feet thick,\u201d Main explains. \u201cNow it\u2019s down to less than an inch.\u201d Main considers the Bonneville exhibit a historical milestone itself. \u201cWe may never again have a gathering of iconic vehicles in one place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The salt flats have suffered severe damage over the years, shrinking its original size from over 90,000 acres to its current 19,000 acres with mud showing through the salt crust in many spots. The salt layer has diminished from 4 feet in depth in 1960 to today\u2019s less than an inch thickness primarily from mining operations which have drained away valuable concentrations of potash and magnesium which resides immediately below the salt surface. This mining virtually washed away much of the salt layer until an initial preservation effort began in 1997 to pump an estimated 10.3 million tons of salt back onto the flats.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/2014-GNRS-100-Years-of-Bonneville-Custom.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[26091]\"><img class=\"alignnone  wp-image-26113\" title=\"2014 GNRS 100 Years of Bonneville Salt Flats Land Speed Racing\" alt=\"2014 GNRS 100 Years of Bonneville (Custom)\" src=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/2014-GNRS-100-Years-of-Bonneville-Custom.jpg\" width=\"575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/2014-GNRS-100-Years-of-Bonneville-Custom.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/2014-GNRS-100-Years-of-Bonneville-Custom-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/2014-GNRS-100-Years-of-Bonneville-Custom-575x383.jpg 575w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Jeff Brock, of Rocket Head Studios, with 1952 Buick record holder, Bombshell Betty.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The newest efforts expect to put down 1,120 tons of dry salt starting from the frontage road immediately adjacent to the International course along 1-80 between the current start lines and mile two of the course.
