Buicks have always raced the Salt flats.

Nice. So, on both occasions, you bought the first year of the releases, albeit continuing on the W platform and both using the 3800 V6 - Series II (1998) and Series III (2005). As a side note, I'm seeing many LaCrosses on the road and in very good shape. Their owners like them. I now appreciate the 2005-2007 model with the smaller oval - but blacked out - grille. I like the grille on my 2008 just fine, given they sloped it back, but there's too much bling there. They could have toned it down and blacked it out to some degree as they did on the more recent Verano. Got it. Yes, I have a general idea where they are - to the west of Salt Lake City, UT heading toward Nevada. Apparently, they are smooth enough that they also run conventional cars on them to show how tough they are. And, maybe, they might have done a TV or print ad where a Bonneville was shown zooming around on the Bonneville Salt Flat(s). Not 100% sure.
