Just found this in a kit box and thought someone might be interested in the schedule in case they have a time machine.
Set Mr. Peabody's Wayback machine for October 1965, San Francisco.

Hi, I actually visited Playland on a family trip back in 1966 (I think, maybe 1965). Yes, way back in the wayback machine.

Thanks for letting us know. On the flyer, they mention Tracks of different colors. Do they actually mean" lanes" or were there several tracks. Do you remember what type of track(s) they had. I understand that in those days, ANY, scale meant that you might find 1/32 scale cars racing against 1/24 cars. Did you notice this happening?

Hi Gary,
It's very interesting that I should come across this once again and actually paid attention to the details of it. It shows proof of what I've been saying about the "Blue" track being at the Model Car Raceway at Playland of San Francisco.
Thank you for sharing it, Gary! Happy Holidays to you and your family.
