Shoot The Salt is a documentary covering the first attempt of Jody Perewitz to set a new land speed record at the Bonneville Salt Flats in 2011.

Jody has been around motorcycles her whole life, her father is the larger than life, multi-award winning custom builder Dave Perewitz. Dave has been building custom motorcycles since 1973, including custom builds for the likes of Hulk Hogan and hundreds of others, establishing himself a nationwide reputation and making regular appearances on TV shows like Biker Build Off.

I won’t go into too much detail here about the film so as not to give anything away, it’s a great watch and well worth your time.

Film Description:
