Two Big Sprint Car Weekends Coming Up at DCRP!
Two huge weekends of Sprint Car racing are right around the corner at Dodge City Raceway Park.
Following this Saturday’s championship chase card of IMCA Modifieds, IMCA Sport Modifieds, IMCA Stock Cars and IMCA Hobby Stocks, the 3/8-mile clay oval in southwest Kansas will play host to the World of Outlaws, NCRA, ASCS and URSS over the next two weekends.
It begins with the Steve King Memorial on Saturday night, June 27, with the World of Outlaws “Boothill Showdown” to follow on July 3-4.

The NCRA Sprint Cars will take on the ASCS Red River Region to headline the Steve King Memorial with the URSS Sprint Cars in action with the Precise Racing Products URSS Sprint Cars as well.
