Sebring for sure. I was trying to figure it out also. I think it's Turn 5. It all looks so different without the bridges and buildings today.

If the negative was reversed, the numbers on the cars would be backwards like this...



It must be a different turn.

No, a friend and I went to the road races almost every weekend 79-82 or so. Camped at the track and partied when we weren't taking photos. Usually took 6-7 36-exposure rolls of film at each race. I threw most of it out years ago
