Car looks like a Lola S1 which the factory raced in '59 and '60. It was the fastest of the small under 1600cc front engine sports racers -- it's primary competition was the Lotus XI LeMans.
I recently saw 4 of these cars -- complete, sitting in storage in a shop in Acton, MA.

That's Scotty Hess. He was an adopted part of our family for a long while. He used to tow that with a hearse.

Re: ID this ride/driver...going to be a ton!
I think your right that does look like Bob. And the Vee kind of looks like an early version of Tammy's. But I didn't think she ever ran number 9. But my memory sucks these days. What color is the number 16 one?

Re: ID this ride/driver...going to be a ton!
If that's when that pic was from then for sure it's Jim. I know what the other two cars look like and that's not them. Okay, iirc Bob's was silver,kind of looks like it could be silver to me.

Re: ID this ride/driver...going to be a ton!
The black car is the ex-Frick Porsche Royale with Eric Wagner driving. I think Eric bought it from Frick and painted it black. Last time , the car was sold , it was yellow. Primer- White-Black- Yellow.
