Approx. address for this drive-in was 411 Eidson Road.
John Tabor, who operated the Speedway, operated under the name Jodi Theatres.
The Speedway Auto Theatre was hit by a tornado in 1987 and the center section of the tower was blown in on the field. The box office was still standing after the storm. I have run across some photos that were sent to me after the storm. I was there for a visit before the tower came but can’t find any photos just video.
Lots of photos on this page:

I seem to recall that the neon sign that once advertised this drive-in, which was shaped like a car, was on display at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan.
