Photographer Michael Alan Ross has been a car guy -- or maybe that's car kid -- since age four, and he has been shooting cars since he was nine. More recently, Ross met the owner of a 1932 Ford roadster with a land speed record at Bonneville, and their conversation led Ross to make his first of three trips to the salt for the annual Speed Week. "It was like stepping onto the face of the moon," he says of his first experience at the Salt Flats. "To stand in the middle of 46 square miles of salt is a pretty amazing experience."
