Return to the Salt - 40 Years On
Return to the Salt - 40 Years On
Brent Hajek and friends build a hot new Mustang, grab Danny Thompson as a driver, and head to the Salt Flats to become the fastest E85 production car on the planet. See what it took to run 250 mph in a stock-bodied Mustang.In July 1968, Mickey Thompson and his crew ventured to the Bonneville Salt Flats to set records. Only this time they didn't bring along multiengined streamliners; they brought three Mach 1 Mustangs. As you'll read in Bill McGuire's fantastic story on the man right after this feature, Mickey was the epitome of a goal-oriented person, and one of those goals was to set a slew of national and international endurance records in a production car. Ford gave him its blessing, along with three cars and engines, and Mickey set up a 10-mile oval course on the Salt Flats for his attempt.
