My mistake Ross, it is 1966 from a pictorial spread of the Dragfest.
Becuase it is a pictorial there are no names attached to the pics.
My guess is visiting Americian, Bob Mayer with his 'Nitemayer' Dragster.
Apologies for the typo, it has been amended.

 

What's up with the guy laying on the track? Did he fall out of the Van?

 

Photographer?

 

He got ran over. Actually he is a photographer.

 

Up for Dragfest.

 

That is a cool shot of the late Alby Wheeler in his Pontiac powered T at Castlereagh Dragway, What else do you have Ian.
