NASCAR Cup Series

Nicknamed the Monster Mile, Dover International Speedway is home to one of only two concrete tracks in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. It’s also home to one of the largest fiberglass structures in the United States. “Miles the Monster” graces the track’s Victory Plaza and comes complete with an actual race car in its hand. The race winner also gets a version of this “monster” in victory lane.

Brad Keselowski needed to lead only 14 laps to tame the “Monster Mile” during the fall race in 2012, as he earned his lone NASCAR Sprint Cup Series (NSCS) victory at the famed concrete oval. The victory would prove to be a pivotal point in his winning the NSCS championship that season
