Think you're right on Lepone...but I'm going to guess that's Niagara Dragway in NY. They had a "hot car" lane off to the side...just where the Vega is parked...I think?

I don't see the building that would show up in photos taken in this direction though....Across the street was an Air Force base...and the building was part of it...so I'm not sure?

One thing I AM sure of...is that I've got one of those Chevrolet racing jackets worn by the fellow in the background...think I got it from Berger Chevrolet...about that time.

I'll be DAMNED if it fits me today....HA HA HA!!!!!
