Michael Waltrip to race at
Berlin Raceway
Will appear at the
Wednesday, June 16 Spring Memorial Race
MARNE, MI - NASCAR Nextel Cup Star Michael Waltrip gave
Berlin Raceway a boost today, committing to race at the
legendary asphalt oval on Wednesday, June 16. Waltrip will
join Johnny Benson in what will be an exciting 125-lap
Spring Memorial Race presented by Meijer and Tonyıs Pizza.
Waltrip joins a growing list of NASCAR stars including
Tony Stewart, Kenny Schrader and Dick Trickle, who have
competed at Berlin Raceway in recent years. Also racing
this year is 2000 Winston Cup Champion Bobby Labonte,
scheduled for Wednesday, August 18.
Berlin Raceway president Scott Lane gives credit to
Benson, a limited partner in the Berlin Raceway ownership
group, and his relationship with Nextel Cup drivers that
has made it possible to secure so many big names in the
past four years.
³This is really Johnnyıs influence that allows us to
secure such big names,² Lane said. ³Johnny and Michael are
very close, and itıs Johnnyıs relationship with him that
made him commit to race here. When Johnny talks to these
drivers, theyıve all heard great things about Berlin
Raceway, and that makes it easier to get their committment
to see this track for themselves. Having both Bobby
Labonte and Michael Waltrip in the same season will be
exciting for the fans.²
Waltrip, who races the #15 NAPA car for Dale Earnhardt
Inc., on the NASCAR Nextel Cup circuit, won the Daytona
500 in 2001 and 2003. He is in his 20th season driving in
NASCARıs top level. This will be his first appearance at
Berlin Raceway.
The Spring Memorial Race presented by Meijer and Tonyıs
Pizza will serve as a fundraiser for Wright Township and
its residents to help ³Flush the Debt² for overages in the
sewer rebuilding project that otherwise will be paid by
local businesses and residents. One dollar for every
ticket sold will be donated to the cause.
Tickets for the Spring Memorial are $25 in advance and $27
at the gate. Pit passes are $30. Tickets can be purchased
from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday at the
Berlin Raceway administrative office (2060 Berlin Fair
Drive, Marne, MI, located in the white building at the
next drive past the main entrance to the fairgrounds).
Tickets are also available online at www.berlinraceway.com
and at www.ticketmaster.com, or in person at TicketMaster
outlets in Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and Illinois. The
Berlin Raceway Ticket Office, located at the entrance
gates to the grandstands, will open for individual ticket
sales later in the spring.
