It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Dave Bennett, the longtime voice of the Outlaws and a cherished friend whose presence left an indelible mark on everyone fortunate enough to know him. Dave had a remarkable gift: he never met a stranger. From the very first conversation, it was clear that you were more than just someone he met—you were a friend. His warm smile, engaging stories, infectious laughter, and larger-than-life personality made everyone feel welcome and valued, no matter where he was.
For many years, Dave’s voice became the unmistakable soundtrack of Outlaw events. He brought excitement, passion, and genuine heart to every announcement, every race, and every gathering. His enthusiasm was contagious, and his dedication to the sport and its community was evident in every word he spoke. But beyond his role behind the microphone and beyond the track, Dave was something even more significant—family. He was the kind of person people relied on; the kind of friend who showed up, cared deeply, and made every gathering better just by being there.
His presence was a unifying force, bringing people together through his kindness, humor, and unwavering support. Now, as we grapple with the loss, his absence will be profoundly felt by all who knew and loved him. While our hearts are heavy, we are forever grateful for the countless memories, the laughs, and the moments of joy Dave shared with us over the years. Though his voice may be silent now, the impact he made on our sport and our lives will never fade.
Rest easy, my friend. You will always be the voice of the Outlaws, and you will never be forgotten.
