i was looking at the footage earlier, and it appears the track in the video is situated at a pretty good elevation. lake garnett is man made but the elevation i don't think would sustain the kind of views in the video. i don't know about way back then, but the track is pretty narrow at present, the bridge would be hard pressed to hold two cars side by side and the rest of the track at present is not much wider. i don't know anywhere on track or close that you can view the amount of trees shown in the video, and the trees don't appear to be the type growing in eastern kansas. i've talked to a guy who watched races back in the 60's and he said the crowd was pretty much up close to the track, not like the video. hth
