At first I thought photo 2 was Bettenhausen, but decided against it. I believe Opperman is correct and that is a midget sitting behind him, not an IndyCar. I am, however, surprised at how steep the banking is and the "quality" of the guard rail.

Wasn't there something in 1974 called the World Series of Auto Racing in which drivers raced midgets, sprints, silver crown, stock cars and IndyCars to decide the best overall driver? Seems I remember a photo in Speed Sport of cars on the track at Trenton with snow flying.
I also believe the World Series was the inspiration IROC.
Any old timers got a better memory than mine?
