The Shimmering Flats is a large stretch of salt flats at the southeastern end of Thousand Needles, on the border with Tanaris. The area is an open expanse devoid of any vegetation and home to various varieties of, among other things, basilisks, scorpids, turtles, and vultures. The area is a dried lakebed, as evidenced by the wrecked sailing vessel in the northern part. The flatness of the area made it especially desirable for goblins and gnomes, who have set up the Mirage Raceway and constantly compete against each other to see who can build the fastest racing machine. Their inventions are frequently unstable, and the area is littered with the wreckage and parts of countless failed gizmos, as well as numerous craters. A group of dwarven archaeologists was attacked by a Horde raiding party led by Moktar Krin, but they all were driven out of the Rustmaul Dig Site in the southwest when they inadvertently dug into a subterranean silithid hive.
