Land Speed Grand Championship Canceled T he August 26-31 AMA Land Speed Grand Champion- ship (also known as Bonneville Motorcycle Speed Trials or BMST), along with the FIM Land Speed World Records, which takes place on the Bonneville Salt Flats near Wendover, Utah, has been canceled due to the remnants of Hurricane Hilary and related storm systems delivering significant rain. Following powerful rain - storms in the area during the past week, and with even more impending rain on the way, the event assessment team—led by Bonneville Motorcycle Speed Tri- als promoter Delvene Reber—de- termined that all track locations and alternatives would not be safe for competition. "We put it all on the line every year," Reber said, "and after the 2022 cancellation, we were look - ing forward to an exceptional race surface and return of our amazing participants to twist the throttle and add their name to the record books. It is surpris- ing and heart-wrenching to be canceling due to the impacts of Hurricane Hilary. We know that everyone wants an exceptional experience, and we are looking forward to next year when we can bring world-class motor - cycle land-speed racing back to the Bonneville Salt Flats." CN
