These four slides are currently on eBay, pretty cool.  Dated to Sept '63.

Looks like Carroll standing on the rear of the trailer with his hands in his pockets?

Brian, thanks for posting ! great images.

Looking at the sandy environs, looks cool, you can see the trees bending in the wind in one of the first pics, people are bundled up,

 looks early A.M. I would guess September, Bridgehampton N.Y.,  Sandy at Laguna Seca as well, but the trees etc ? ? might be Elkhart Lake, but I don't think so ? ?

Any one ? kranky ? you know your stuff !

Image BG6 is clearly exit of Mid Ohio carrousel leading to pit straight at start/finish. Pit entrance also shown.
