Dean Funt mod 4 memorial race

07/26/2026

On behalf of the Dean Funt family, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who donated, sponsored, raced, volunteered, and came out to support the Dean Funt Mod 4 Memorial Race. Seeing so many people come together to honor Dean’s memory made for an unforgettable evening, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

A very special thank you to James Trantina and the entire NCS staff for allowing us to host the Memorial Race at your track and for everything you did behind the scenes to make the night such a success. Your hard work, support, and hospitality truly meant the world to our family.

Congratulations to Conner Bruss, Dustin Holtquist, and Andy Funt on your top finishes!

Thank you to all of the drivers who put on an incredible show and to every fan who filled the stands and cheered them on. Your support helped make this a night we’ll never forget.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping us celebrate Dean’s legacy. We are incredibly blessed by this amazing racing community and look forward to doing it again.

It’s race day at North Central Speedway. Pack up grandpa, grandma and your side action and get your ass to the track. You just never know when you’re gonna get another opportunity to attend a DFM.

Motley Crew BBQ will be feeding the drivers after the race and we will be doing our prize handouts well sipping on some cold beverages!

For your drivers that make the redraw Kyle Hall has a little something special for you to determine you’re starting spots! You won’t wanna miss it 🎯

The top three get custom trophies. And no, my dad was not into baseball….. He just always carried a bat in the cut out part of the door of the Pinto in case somebody stuck their head in!!
