[Land-speed] Cell phone for radio?

[Bryan Savage]

The salt in not friendly to radio transmission to or from cars
moving fast (150+) on the salt. Most notable failure was GM and
their telemetry. CB radios have the same problem. I don't know
about commercial FM radios or cell phones but I'd like to see
someone test them.
