Wes Potter would probably know, but I thought the 10 mile circle was run before they had the berm/dike on the south east section. All before my time. Thought I heard some where that the Meteor create

Well, didn't they set endurance records at Bonneville with that corporate-sponsored Olds "Quad-Four" streamliner, back in the '80s? Seems like I also remember seeing a map of Bonneville Speedway show

No, I think that was in Texas or Arizona on a 5 or 7 mile track. Have not heard of any endurance events at Bonneville in more years than I can remember. JB -- Original Message -- From: "Russel Mack"

I remember the 10 mile circle. As I remember, part of it crossed the International Course. In 1962, Mickey Thompson & Lloyd Cox drove a Pontiac Catalina to several records on the 10 mile circle. In
