Can't help ya on the others, but as a kid, I hung out at Dan's garage, was raised not far from Neville's Ford store at Hope, bought some NEW A Ford fenders off him one time, spent a lot of time sitting on the hill there, then later ran a 37 Ford sedan there, and even later, we raced go-karts there a time or 2. That picture, must be the backstretch, going into turn 3, and if ya didn't make it, they'd fish ya out of Clifty creek, which ran with the backstretch. Don't remember there being any spectators on that side, but from the picture, it shows them. In 1949, I woulda been 12yrs old, that would really strain my memory! Thanks for posting! Bob!
