While at the International Motorsports Research Center or ? in Watkins Glen, NY, I had the chance to go through a few of the books there, assisted by the head librarian. Keech has a few headshots / lines / car shots in the books, and there's a picture of the burning wreckage.OK I'm back after 16 months and I found my brief sheet of notes. I found Keech in: Holthusen -- Fastest Men on Earth; Rick Popley -- Indianapolis 500 Chronicles; Automobile: Quarterly, search through the archives; Doyle, King of the Boards; Dick Wallen, Board Track Guts, Gold and Glory (photo of Keech death crash on page 290). Hope these help--Rbeas 03:58, 29 July 2005 (UTC) / 206.196.168.195 02:41, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
There are probably more images of him setting the land speed record at the Florida Photographic Collection, which is free use images as long as they get credit. The burning wreckage could also be from the destruction of the Triplex at Daytona Beach Road Course by Lee Bible (see the article I started for Daytona for details).
