Wednesday, we're talking about Ab Jenkins, a Utah man who pushed the limits of speed. More than 70 years ago, Jenkins raced his custom-built Duesenberg Special called the "Mormon Meteor" across the Bonneville Salt Flats. Jenkins set 26 records in that car and half of them still stand today. Now, there's a new documentary about Ab Jenkins and the Boys of Bonneville. We'll talk to director Curt Wallin and others about the film and about the newly restored Mormon Meteor.
- The newly restored Mormon Meteor will be unveiled at The Rose Wagner Performing Arts Center Wednesday night at 6:00 p.m. It will will be on display - along with 40 other cars - until 8:00 p.m. on 300 South, between West Temple and 200 West in Salt Lake City. [Details]
