Jenison, MI – Keyser’s Port City Racing and Berlin Raceway are
pleased to announce their new partnership for the 2010 race season.
Keyser’s Port City Racing will be one of the premier sponsors for the
Marne, Michigan oval on multiple levels on every night of the season.
Arguably the biggest event on Berlin’s season calendar is the Rowdy’s
Revenge 251 featuring NASCAR Champion Kyle Busch. Busch returns to
Berlin following his fifth place finish in last year’s race and will
look to make it to victory lane at the famed 7/16th mile
oval. Keyser’s Port City Racing will be the presenting sponsor of the
Wednesday June 9th race, which will, once again, be sanctioned by the
CRA Super Series.
“We are very excited to be a part of everything that’s going on at
Berlin Raceway again this season. To have our name on one of the
biggest short-track events in the entire nation, which is right in our
own back yard is really exciting for us,” said Scott Keyser, President
of Keyser’s Port City Racing.
The race winner of the mid-summer spectacular could take home a cool
$25,000, with over $5,000 in potential bonuses and awards with the
help of the involvement from Keyser’s Port City Racing based on car
count. Drivers from across the nation are anticipated to travel to the
Wolverine State to try and steal the prize money from Berlin’s local
favorites.
“Everything that has
come together in the past few weeks for our upcoming race season is
very exciting! With Scott at Port City Racing coming onboard, really
helps the entire racing community and we are just excited to play
host,” said Michael Blackmer, President of Berlin Raceway.
CRA Super Series officials were excited upon the opportunity offered
to become the sanctioning body. The June 9 non-points special will
feature a few altered race procedures, including double file restarts
which have become a fan favorite at the Marne raceway. All CRA car
rules will apply which are consistent with most template series across
the country, including the Snowball Derby’s Blizzard Series.
Berlin Raceway officials are also excited to announce that the CRA
Super Series will first compete on Saturday May 8, for a regular
125-lap points paying event. The Keyser’s Port City Racing 125 will be
a prime tune-up for the Wednesday June 9 $25,000-to-win race. Both
dates will also feature practices on the day prior, including Friday
May 7, and Tuesday June 8.
Keyser’s Port City Racing will also be involved on every night of the
year next season, proudly sponsoring the Fast Car Dash races. These
4-lap events played a huge role in three of the five 2009 division
Championships, and therefore will be even better this coming year.
The Berlin Raceway will swing its gates open on Saturday night April
24th, to kick off the 60th season of operation! For more
