SEMA Action Network (SAN), the nationwide partnership between vehicle clubs, enthusiasts and members of the specialty auto parts industry, is urging the industry to help save the Bonneville Salt Flats in Toole County, Utah.

The future of land speed racing at Bonneville is in jeopardy. The once 13-mile race track is now less than 8 miles due to salt erosion. The Utah legislature is considering a 10-year program to dramatically increase the amount of salt pumped onto Bonneville.

SAN has drafted an email message to easily contact lawmakers to request their support for the State of Utah to appropriate $5 million to “Restore Bonneville.”

“You can help restore Bonneville before it's too late. Please urge Utah lawmakers to help fund the Restore Bonneville program through the State budget,” a SAN statement said. “Please feel free to personalize the draft letter provided and write about what Bonneville means to you. If you are a Utah resident, note it accordingly. Feel free to amend the title of the email as well to say ‘I visit’ or ‘I race’ at the Bonneville Salt Flats.”
