United Rebel Late Model Series
Racers to Honor Local Legend in Dave Garmann Memorial This Weekend at Dodge City Raceway Park
DODGE CITY, Kan. — Drivers from across the region will gather at Dodge City Raceway Park this weekend for the Dave Garmann Memorial, a two-day dirt racing showcase honoring one of southwest Kansas’ most respected racing figures.
Set for Friday and Saturday, June 13–14, the event anchors the United Rebel Late Model Series schedule and will feature full racing programs both nights, including the Late Models, IMCA Modifieds, and IMCA Northern SportMods. Friday’s card will include IMCA Stock Cars, while Saturday’s finale will swap them out for Hobby Stocks.
The annual memorial pays tribute to Dave Garmann, a longtime driver and friend to many in the Kansas dirt racing community. Known for his steady driving style, sportsmanship, and mechanical know-how, Garmann was a familiar face in pit areas across the region before his passing in 2018.
The United Rebel Late Models will headline both nights, with drivers competing for critical championship points and the honor of etching their name alongside previous memorial winners. Several top regional contenders are expected to enter, including [insert known drivers or points leaders, if available].
Friday night will feature heat races and qualifying action, while Saturday night’s program will build to the weekend’s championship feature. Fans will be treated to a packed schedule both nights, with hot laps beginning at 6:30 p.m. and green flag racing to follow shortly after. Gates open at 5:00 p.m.
