Dover-themed NFTs on RaceDayNFT.com are available for Dover Motor Speedway fans and NASCAR collectors of all ages to kick off race weekend.

An NFT (non-fungible token) is a digital collectible (such as a video or image) that is officially licensed and recorded on the blockchain to demonstrate proof of ownership.

Dover Motor Speedway’s full 2022 collection on RaceDayNFT.com includes the following scheduled drops:

  • Monday, April 25, 1 p.m. (ET): 500 animated DMS Stadium Series NFTs featuring Miles the Monster in 3-D.
  • Wednesday, April 27: 100 Speedway Children’s Charities tokens. All proceeds will benefit Speedway Children’s Charities.
  • Thursday, April 28 – Sunday, May 1: 500 DMS-themed virtual diecast NFTs.
  • Sunday, May 1: 5,000 commemorative Dover Platinum Ticket NFTs.

“All of NASCAR nation can remember their special times at the Monster Mile with a Dover-themed NFT purchase,” Mike Tatoian, Dover Motor Speedway’s president and general manager, said in a statement. “NFTs are the biggest item in the collectible world with Dover and the entire Speedway Motorsports family leading the way. We look forward to sharing the unique Dover-themed collection to kick off our upcoming race weekend.”

RaceDayNFT.com is built on the environmentally friendly Flow blockchain, home of other leading sports NFT projects including NBA Top Shot and UFC Strike.

Speedway Motorsports uses GigLab’s proprietary NFT Bridge platform to create and operate its NFT marketplace. NFT Bridge helps brands remove the complexity of smart contracts, blockchain integration, NFT design and management and event services.

  • Sunday, May 1: DuraMAX Drydene 400 presented by RelaDyne NASCAR Cup Series race (3 p.m., FS1).
