Firestone race tires on a Cobra? What's with that?

I dunno. Did Bob Johnson have a binding contract with Firestone, at the time?

Three factory team USRRC Cobras -- namely CSX2488 (#19), CSX2558 (#13) and CSX2494 (#33) -- raced at Castle Rock and Mid-Ohio in Aug 1965 wearing those race numbers.

Does anyone recognize this particular photo and can you confirm which of the two races it's from?

My best guess is Mid-Ohio as this is the order in which they ran/finished, but I cannot say 100%.
