It has an informative forum, of over 1500 former Dover Fans-Racers and those that share the passion for the Legendary track that operated from 1961 to 1976, in Wingdale,N.Y. At the home page (Top Right ) .if you c

lick on "Galleries", you can access 5000+ photos,donated through the years of 'all Dover shots".The website generated a concept to get the 'gang' back together and race again as in the old days. In 2009 the first "Dover Drag Strip Nostalgia Drags " at Island Dragway was held.The event was expanded to two days, just to get more social time. In 2011, the 'party' was moved to Lebanon Valley Dragway,and was expanded to three days to include 7 'vintage' eliminators , Funny cars -extreme altereds ,vendors and special visiting Nostalgia Groups .Plus a big Rod & Custom Car Show & a Nostalgia Race Car Display were added on Sunday. The Website, page and The Dover Event, are all administrated by "Dino" Lawrence. He was the track announcer from 1967 to 1972, but stayed active til 1974. As the track' PR' guy, he coordinated advertising ,special events ,and designed all the programs, t-shirts,and signage .Many of his original design work (t-shirts-decals-signs & banners )have been recreated at his www.dragstripsgone.com online store.
