Dover Drag Strip

Sunday's Only

Biggest problem, they were only NHRA sanctioned in 1965, and then
in 1970.

Car counts were around 250 to 275 in the Spring and the Fall.

300 to 350 in the Summer.

If there was a Big $$$ Event, the track could pull in the high 300's

If there was a big NHRA 'NED 1' Points Meet going on at another track, then the car counts would drop to 250.
