Dunn, NC (October 17, 2017) – Dunn Benson Motorsports Team owners Carlton and Kemp Lamm with driver Earl Pearson Jr. will have a special throw-back paint scheme this weekend at the Dirt Track World Championship.
The Lamm family have been a long-time close family friend of NASCAR legend Robert Yates who was a NASCAR Championship Car Owner, Engine Builder, and Owner of Robert Yates Racing Engines until his recent passing after battling cancer on October 2nd. In his honor and memory, Carlton and Kemp Lamm will have the famous #28 black and red paint scheme that Robert Yates fielded for his driver at that time Davey Allison at this weekend’s Dirt Track World Championship in Portsmouth, Ohio.
Carlton and Kemp Lamm had known Robert Yates for over 35 years and considered him a very close friend. Robert was very instrumental to the Lamm’s and their racing endeavors and businesses over the years. “We wanted to do something special for the Yates Family and we felt like this would be a great tribute to a great man that impacted the motorsports industry tremendously.

We want to thank everyone at Lucas Oil Products for allowing us to do this tribute car and having their blessing to honor Robert Yates at the Dirt Track World Championship this weekend”, stated Kemp and Carlton Lamm, Team Owners of Dunn Benson Motorsports.
