I'd guess previous photos were of practice, if my conjecture that this is the parade lap is correct. Each of the three groups has a clickem. Click the lower half for the whole shot.
The numbers I see on these cars are from the left: #35, Dempsey Wilson, in the Walker Auto Body Special; can't read it; #76, Johnnie Tolan in the Inglewood Tires Special; #26, Don Horvath in the Riverside Builders, Inc. Special. Also notable: Turn Six Bleachers and the NASCAR road.

I'm seeing a number on only the second car, and make it #35, Dempsey Wilson, in the Walker Auto Body Special, although it might be #55, Bob Cortner in "Little Jewel". Ahead of him the already mentioned #76, Johnnie Tolan in the Inglewood Tires Special. One clickem around the cars on this picture, bottom half for the full-size full array.

Here again is the #62 car, not listed in my program. If you can zoom in on the background (and you can, if you use the free Opera browser), in this picture you'll find a Nash Metropolitan in rust-colored primer (or Dusty Rose, if you prefer), a cream-color MGA, and a Morris Minor tourer (convertible). Not to mention the lovely Nash Rambler wagon.

This looks like the #54 car, Bill Homeier in the Hollywood Spring and Axle Special. I think the hill in the back is in a line with the shorter, closer one in the photo of Riverside's sundown.
