DODGE CITY, Kan. — At long last, the 2020 season opener atop the 3/8-mile Dodge City Raceway Park clay oval in southwest Kansas is within reach.
But, before the season officially gets under way on June 20, the track has set an open practice for Sunday, June 14, from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
The practice set for both the 3/8-mile and the 1/7-mile Little DCRP ovals precedes the Saturday, June 20, season opener that features the $750-to-win Hobby Stock Roundup with the Precise Racing Products DCRP Sprint Cars, IMCA Modifieds, IMCA Sport Modifieds and IMCA Stock Cars in action as well.
The opening leg of Micro and Kart competition atop the Little DCRP clay oval will round out the opening weekend of action on Sunday, June 21.
With the initial delays to the season due to COVID-19 restrictions, the June 20-21 weekend launches a season that includes ten nights of competition atop the 3/8-mile clay oval along with six rounds of action on the Little DCRP oval.
Following the Hobby Stock Roundup to kick things off, the month of July offers up the URSS vs. DCRP Sprint Car Showdown on the 2nd, the Stock Car Shootout on the 18th and then Driver and Fan Appreciation Night on the 24th.
