Dover Speedway holding Laps for Charity event on Saturday

Posted

DOVER — Dover Motor Speedway’s latest Laps For Charity event is set for Saturday.

Fans can drive multiple circuits around the high-banked, one-mile oval known as the Monster Mile.

For $75 per vehicle, participants can take five laps around the track behind a Dover track vehicle. Cars will be on the track between 11 a.m.-1 p.m.

The VIP session is sold out.

“There’s no better way to appreciate what NASCAR’s top competitors face at Dover each year than to drive on the Monster Mile,” said Gary Camp, SCC-Dover’s executive director and Dover Motor Speedway’s vice president for marketing and communications.

“We are excited to host families and car enthusiasts for this exclusive opportunity to drive on Dover’s high-banked, one-mile concrete oval.”

Dover Motor Speedway’s owner, Speedway Motorsports, established the first Speedway Children’s Charities hapter in 1982. Since then, SCC chapters across the country have raised more than $69 million in grants for organizations that assist children.

SCC-Dover’s focus is raising funds for Delaware and mid-Atlantic-based nonprofit organizations assisting children in need.

Dover’s final Laps For Charity event of 2024 is scheduled for Sept. 14.
In addition to the driving package, the following add-on opportunities and features will be available on Saturday.

Pace Car Passenger ($25 per person): Riders can sit shotgun in Dover’s Ford Mustang Mach-1 pace car as it turns five laps around the Monster Mile.

Photo at the Monster Monument ($25 per vehicle): Take a photograph with your vehicle in front of the 46-foot tall Monster Monument at Victory Plaza. Photos will be available to download on the SCC-Dover website following the event.

Track Treasures Trailer: Mementos, NASCAR collectibles, one-of-a-kind autographed items, clothing and advertising banners will be available for purchase near the Monster Monument.
