REVERSE SPEED TRAP!
Twice each year, the State of Nevada closes 90 miles of State Highway
and permits anyone over 18 years of age with an active
driver's license and a roadworthy vehicle to drive as fast as they want.
ABSOLUTELY NO SPEED LIMIT!

The location is State Route #318. 
The dates are the third Sunday of May and the third Sunday of September. 
The event is well organized, fully sanctioned and insured.
