DOVER, Del. – Denny Hamlin, one of the top drivers to watch at the Monster Mile this May, is set to appear in the Monster Mile Club on Sunday, May 16, 2010 at Dover International Speedway. Hamlin, driver of the No. 11 FedEx Toyota Camry in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, will be the special guest during an exclusive, hosted question-and-answer session in the Monster Mile Club, an all-inclusive pre-race hospitality option now on sale.

Hamlin, a two-time winner in the NASCAR Nationwide Series at Dover, is still in pursuit of his first NASCAR Sprint Cup Series monster trophy. The 2006 Raybestos Rookie of the Year is currently in his fifth full-time season with Joe Gibbs Racing. Hamlin owns eight career NASCAR Sprint Cup Series victories and has qualified for the “Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup” every year that he’s been racing in NASCAR’s premier series.
