David Burkham wrote "This photo was taken at Macon Speedway in Macon IL. Macon Speedway was my dad's first account, even before he founded Decatur Ambulance Service in 1959. Starting in 1955 he would rent an ambulance from a funeral home (this one is from Brintlinger's), then work standby at the races."

Bob Burkham is behind the wheel.
