classic antioch speedway racing and demolition derby photos from the 1980's

I found some old photos from the 1980's showing a destruction derby and some stock car racing from Antioch Speedway. I was showing my friend the photos and he bet me that I'd have a photo of his ex-wife's father in there. I was dubious, but sure enough he found a picture of his ex-in-laws and even a photo of his ex way before she was even his current. I thought it was amusing that in my collection of stuff my friend would run across someone he knew. Points out how small the world is and that we are all interconnected.
If you know anyone in the photos let me know by adding their names in the comments. Thanks.
