Hall of Fame hours on induction weekend

During National Dirt Late Model Hall of Fame weekend Aug. 7-9 at Florence Speedway, admission is free to the Union, Ky., Hall of Fame while the luncheon and induction ceremony is a private ticketed event.

The Hall of Fame is open from 3-7 p.m. Thursday, 2-7 p.m. Friday and 2:30 p.m.-7 p.m. Saturday. The luncheon and induction ceremony is scheduled for 11:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. The Dirt Racing Outreach worship is 5 p.m. Saturday in the tent at the Hall of Fame.

The annual memorabilia auction won’t be held this year but is expected to return in 2026 in the new Hall of Fame space.

Drivers set to be inducted are Kyle Berck of Marquette, Neb., Kelly Boen of Henderson, Colo., Lance Matthees of Winona, Minn., along with Fred Horn of Marion, Iowa, and the late C.L. Pritchett of Baldwin, Ga.

Contributors elected by Hall of Fame voters are former Hav-A-Tampa Dirt Racing Series announcer Roby Helm, the track- and race-promoting Izzo family from Illinois and Don Schoenfeld, who founded Van Buren, Ark.’s Schoenfeld Headers more than 50 years ago.

Three others also receiving Hall of Fame honors include veteran series official and promoter Kelley Carlton of Woodruff, S.C., and former World Racing Group president Tom Deery of Ormond Beach, Fla., will receive Lifetime Achievement Awards and veteran promoter Carl Short, founder of the Hillbilly 100 and DTWC, will receive the Baltes-Memmer Award.

The Class of 2025, elected by a 75-member committee, will join more than 200 drivers and contributors enshrined since 2001.
