Great pix that bring back a lot of good memories. From 1961 to 1967 I lived in Speedway, IN and spent much of each May at the track. I could walk over for the practice sessions which cost $.50 admission for the whole day. A 16 oz draft was $.35 so for less than a buck I was in hog heaven. Once I managed to get a pit pass and got into the garage area and of course the pits. We locals could go in early compared to those in the traffic jams and get prime qualification seats in the upper deck of the first turn. This gave us a great view of the track as well as the "Snake Pit". This was the name of the infield where all kinds of interesting human activity could be witnessed before the popularity of vans drove it under cover. All through this annual adventure I had my trusty Gallet Chronograph (which I still have) to keep abreast of the proceedings. The big downtown jewelers had many stop watches and chronographs in their windows at this time of year which added to my pleasure. Thanks for the memories.
