Gateway track GM resigns

Madison, IL – Gateway International Raceway announced today that Vice President and General Manager Matt Strelo has resigned his position effective October 4, 2006.

Strelo has spent the past five years at the track overseeing all business and day-to-day operations of the facility. Under his watch the track had the most successful seasons in its 10-year history, highlighted by the 2005 Wallace Family Tribute 250 NASCAR Busch Series Race which honored St. Louis natives Rusty, Mike and Kenny Wallace.

"I owe a great deal of gratitude to Denis McGlynn and everyone at Dover Motorsports, Inc.," Strelo said. "The hardest part in this decision is having to leave the extraordinary group of people that I have been privileged to lead over the past five years at Gateway."

Gateway International Raceway is owned by Dover Motorsports, Inc. (NYSE: DVD), a leading promoter of motorsports events in the United States. DVD subsidiaries operate tracks in three states, and present more than 500 motorsports events each year. This includes 15 major, national events which operate under the auspices of three of the premier sanctioning bodies in the U.S. – NASCAR, NHRA, and IRL. Dover Motorsports, Inc. also owns and operates Dover International Speedway in Dover, Del., Nashville Superspeedway near Nashville, Tenn., and Memphis Motorsports Park in Memphis, Tenn.
