11

1969 — Dover Downs opens as a unique, dual-purpose facility, designed to accommodate both horse racing and motorsports events. The first event on the one-mile, asphalt speedway is a Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race, the “Mason-Dixon 300,” on July 6, won by Richard Petty.

1971 — All non-NASCAR sanctioned motorsports events are removed from the schedule to concentrate on two 500-mile Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series races traditionally held in the spring and fall each year.

1982 — Joe Ruttman wins Dover’s first NASCAR XFINITY Series race, the May 15 “Sportsman 200,” a new Satur-day attraction for race fans on the spring race weekend.

1983 — Bobby Allison sets the all-time wins mark at Dover International Speedway by winning his seventh race at the track in the Sept. 18 “Budweiser 500.”

1984 — Richard Petty ties Bobby Allison with his seventh win at Dover, taking the checkered flag in the May 20 “Budweiser 500.”

1986 — A modest 3,200 seat grandstand addition begins expansion of the facility which continued through 2001, a process unequaled by any other NASCAR track. Dover also adds an annual fall NASCAR XFINITY Series race to its schedule, the first being the Sept. 13 “Grand National 200.”

1995 — Dover Downs International Speedway becomes NASCAR’s first concrete paved superspeedway. With the concrete surface, races become cleaner, faster and more competitive. Kyle Petty wins the first race on the concrete surface, the June 4 “Miller Genuine Draft 500.” After a summer and fall of round-the-clock construc-tion, Dover Downs Slots opens on Dec. 29.

1996 — Dover Downs Entertainment, Inc., parent company of all gaming and motorsports activities, begins trading on New York Stock Exchange under symbol DVD.

1997 – Dover makes the change from 500 miles to a new 400-mile distance for all Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series races, beginning with the Sept. 21 “MBNA 400,” won by Mark Martin. His average speed of 132.719 mph sets the track’s fastest race record. In addition, Dover Downs Entertainment, Inc. acquires Nashville Speedway USA, operator of NASCAR events at Tennessee State Fairgrounds, and announces plans for a new superspeedway in the Nashville area. Open date is set for Easter weekend in 2001.

2000 — The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series makes its debut at Dover’s September race weekend with Kurt Busch emerging as the winner from the pole position in the Sept. 22 “MBNA e-commerce.com 200.”

2001 — The 16th straight year of grandstand expansion places seating capacity at 135,000 — the largest seating capacity of a sports facility in the mid-Atlantic region. Dover holds the first Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series event after the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on New York City, Washington, D.C. and Pennsylva-nia. Dale Earnhardt Jr. wins the “MBNA Cal Ripken Jr. 400” and takes the American flag for a victory lap around the track. The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race is shifted to Friday of the spring weekend, while a NASCAR K&N Pro Series East race is added for the Friday of the fall weekend.

2002 — Dover Downs International Speedway becomes Dover International Speedway, as the gaming side of the company splits off and Dover Motorsports, Inc. is created to exclusively oversee racing at the Dover, Nashville, Memphis and St. Louis tracks, as well as the Grand Prix of Long Beach, the Grand Prix of Denver and the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. The harness racing, slots operation and newly built hotel onsite retain the Dover Downs name now known as Dover Downs Hotel & Casino®.

2004 — The Monster Bridge, a 56-seat, glass-enclosed structure that extends over the track in Turn 3, is unveiled. The one-of-a-kind structure creates the “Most Exciting Seat in Sports.” Jeremy Mayfield sets the track qualifying record in the June 6 “MBNA America 400 ‘A Salute to Heroes,’” with a lap of 161.522 mph. The newly introduced NASCAR playoffs came to the Monster Mile in the fall as Ryan Newman notches another Dover win in the “MBNA America 400” and takes home the first Monster trophy.

2006 — Dover announces plans for the “Monster Makeover,” a multi-year capital improvement project. The

first phase of construction begins prior to the fall race weekend.

HISTORY HIGHLIGHTS

12

2007 — The first phase of Monster Makeover is completed prior to the spring race. Construction includes a new skybox complex and VELOCITY, an all-inclusive, luxury suite for individual race fans. A 2,100 square-foot addition to the Infield Media Center was also completed along with widened walkways behind the frontstretch grandstands; six renovated restroom facilities; additional paved handicapped parking areas; expanded bus parking; a new sound system; an expanded and relocated hospitality tent village; and continued beautification and landscaping of the entire property.

2008 — The 2008 season marked Dover International Speedway’s 40th anniversary. The second phase of Monster Makeover construction included the addition of the 46-foot Monster Monument at Victory Plaza, presented by AAA, a larger-than-life fiberglass sculpture of the track’s signature icon Miles the Monster. The structure also includes more than 200 granite plaques dedicated to race winners and legendary drivers at the Monster Mile. Other construction projects included the expansion of the FanZone display area and the addi-tion of a new emergency services building outside of Gate 1.

2009 — The third phase of Monster Makeover construction focused on pit road, including a new 1,592 foot concrete pit wall equipped with SAFER barrier technology. The new space made way for a 43rd pit stall and en-abled the track to lengthen all stalls by four feet, creating an easier entrance and exit for the cars while pitting.

2011 — Dover Motorsports, Inc. declines sanctions for NASCAR events at Nashville Superspeedway, while opening up the facility to team testing. The company previously sold its other motorsports facilities and now focuses on its flagship facility in Dover. Dover International Speedway begins the process of widening grand-stand seats from 18 to 22 inches. The project, which will take approximately two years to complete, will create a better fan experience for all guests, and will seat 113,000.

2013 — Jimmie Johnson sets the all-time Dover wins record by winning the Sept. 29 “AAA 400” passing Richard Petty and Bobby Allison with his eighth victory at the Monster Mile in NASCAR’s top series. The fall weekend includes a few other historical moments as well, as Dale Earnhardt Jr. set a new qualifying record for the track with a lap of 161.849 mph (22.243 sec.). Joey Logano swept the NASCAR XFINITY Series events at Dover for the second straight year, becoming the first driver to win four straight NASCAR XFINITY Series races at the Monster Mile.

2014 — Jimmie Johnson adds to his Dover wins record by earning his ninth Monster Mile victory in the June 1 “FedEx 400 benefiting Autism Speaks.” In qualifying, Brad Keselowski won the pole and set a track record with a lap of 164.444 mph (21.892 seconds). On Sept. 28, Jeff Gordon won the “AAA 400” for his fifth Dover Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series victory. The race was the first “knockout event” in the newly formatted NASCAR Cup Series playoffs, reducing the title contenders from 16 to 12 at the checkered flag. After the 2014 season, Dover International Speedway completed construction on a new 21-foot catch fence, up from the original fence’s 15 feet. In addition, the Speedway begins the process of removing grandstand seating from Turns 2 and 3, right-sizing the facility for the 2015 season. The seat removal brings Dover International Speedway’s seating capacity to 95,500.

2015 - Jimmie Johnson captures his record 10th Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series victory at the Monster Mile in the May 31“FedEx 400 Benefiting Autism Speaks” following a green-white-checkered finish.

2016 - Matt Kenseth leads 48 laps on his way to winning the “AAA 400 Drive for Autism” for his third Monster Mile victory after a spirited duel with runner-up Kyle Larson and third-place finisher Chase Elliott. An 18-car wreck on the frontstretch at Lap 355, combined with close racing for the lead for most of the event, leads many observers to call the May 15 race one of the best in track history. In the fall, Martin Truex Jr. leads a command-ing 187 laps on his way to a victory in the “Citizen Soldier 400.” Before the race, more space was created in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series garage area by removing a grass hill between the garage and existing harness track. Also, more than 500 feet of SAFER barriers are added between the spring and fall races, along the exits of Turns 2 and 4.

2017 — Jimmie Johnson wins under caution during overtime to capture his 11th Monster Mile checkered flag in the “AAA 400 Drive for Autism,” extending his track record for victories. Some grandstand sections are removed in Turn 3, making the track’s capacity 85,000. Approximately 1,800 feet of SAFER barriers are added to the track. With this project, all of the Monster Mile’s outside walls have SAFER barriers installed. In the Fall, Kyle Busch passes Chase Elliott just before the white flag and holds on for his third Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series win at Dover. Harrison Burton, 16, clinches NASCAR K&N Pro Series East title with win in season finale.

2018 — In May, Kevin Harvick leads 201 laps in winning the “AAA 400 Drive for Autism” for his second career Dover win. Johnny Sauter becomes only second driver to win multiple NASCAR Camping World Truck Series races at the Monster Mile after a “JEGS 200” triumph.

Dixon 300” on July 6, 1969.

That day’s race winner, Richard Petty, has called the

first Dover race NASCAR’s “invasion of the North.” Since

that time, not only has the Monster Energy NASCAR

Cup Series remained, but others have followed, looking

to conquer the track known throughout motorsports

as “The Monster Mile.”

In 2018, Dover International Speedway is again set to

host two NASCAR tripleheader weekends, on May 4-6

and Oct. 5-7.

In the fall, the “Crosley 125” NASCAR K&N Pro Series

East drivers hit Dover on Friday, Oct. 5. The NASCAR

K&N Pro Series East first raced at the Monster Mile in

1998, and became an annual Dover feature in 2001.

The next day, Saturday, Oct. 6, the “Bar Harbor 200”

presented by Sea Watch International NASCAR Xfinity

Series playoff race returns, followed by the centerpiece

of the weekend, the “Gander Outdoors 400” Monster

Energy NASCAR Cup Series playoff race on Sunday,

Oct. 7.

When drivers strap in their vehicles at the Monster

Mile, they compete on one of the sport’s unique

venues. With speeds close to 170 mph, drivers face

24 degrees of banking in all four turns, as well as 9

degrees of incline on the straightaways, leading to

Dover International Speedway’s reputation as the

world’s fastest one-mile concrete oval.

The excitement continues outside the track, as Dover

International Speedway shares the property with

full-service Dover Downs Hotel & Casino, giving race

fans the complete vacation destination. Behind the

frontstretch stands the 46-foot-tall Monster Monument

at Victory Plaza presented by Smithfield, a fiberglass

structure that attracts visitors to the track year-round.

The structure is within Victory Plaza, which also hosts

free, pre-race concerts for fans, which in recent years

have included acts such as Jerrod Niemann, Cassadee

Pope, Colt Ford, the X Ambassadors, Jana Kramer, Easton

Corbin, The Struts and Bret Michaels.

More musical acts visit The Woodlands at Dover

International Speedway between our two 2018 NASCAR

weekends with the Firefly Music Festival, presented by

AEG Presents.

The Firefly Music Festival was first held in July 2012

and hosted 48 national music acts over three days. In

just seven years, Firefly has grown to a multi-day event

that hosts upwards of 90,000 fans per day, with more

than 100 acts playing across a dozen stages, earning a

top-five U.S. music festival designation by Rolling Stone

magazine.

Headliners for 2018 included Eminem, Kendrick

Lamar, Arctic Monkeys and The Killers.

Notable acts that have appeared at Firefly include

Paul McCartney, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers,

Red Hot Chili Peppers, Foo Fighters, Outkast, The Black

Keys, The Killers, Jack White, Kings of Leon and Imagine

Dragons and Mumford & Sons. Other aspects of Firefly

include a retro video game arcade, hammock hangouts,

a silent disco, a marketplace and much more.

From music to motorsports, it’s all here at Dover

International Speedway.
