Dover International Speedway – There’s nothing
quite like them

Built from the ground up by Dover Motorsports, Inc. (NYSE: DVD), Dover International Speedway continues to be a unique venue on NASCAR’s annual calendar. This facility is known for it's concrete surface, severely banked corners, signature trophies, and is a favorite amongst fans and drivers alike. 

Dover International Speedway, the one-mile oval in Dover, Del. has been hosting NASCAR events since it first opened in July 1969. With a unique blend of speeds in excess of 175 mph, and banking of nine degrees on its narrow straightaways and 24 degrees in its sweeping turns, Dover has earned the nickname the “Monster Mile” for its toughness on both man and machine. 

Situated in the heart of the mid-Atlantic region, the fan friendly venue welcomes thousands of race fans to its 750-acre complex each year. Unique to the sport of NASCAR, Dover shares the property with the Dover Downs Hotel & Casino, giving race fans the complete vacation destination. Outside of Turn 4 stands the 46-foot-tall Monster Monument at Victory Plaza, presented by AAA, the larger-than-life sculpture of Dover’s signature icon Miles the Monster. The fiberglass structure attracts visitors to the track year round and has become a “must see” stop for tourists coming to Delaware’s capital city.

In 2012, Dover will host the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, the NASCAR Nationwide Series and the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series on June 1-3, and the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East, the NASCAR Nationwide Series and the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series on Sept. 28-30. The fall NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race will again be race No. 3 in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup and will be a serious hurdle for any driver vying to become the champion.
