The George Kent at New Smyrna photo looks to be from around 1981 and probably has Maynard Troyer in the Soucy #17 and Anthony Ferraiuolo IV or Gary Balough in the #73: Jim Jones Photo

Satch Worley was driving the #26 and Sonney Seamon was in the Smales #41 in that Shangri-La picture with Sege Fidanza and his #77 ride which was actually taken in 1975.
