Youngsters ages 14-16 will be allowed to compete at Berlin Raceway this summer. I feel this is not only a great idea for the young aspiring driver but also for area track promotors. I call it the "Little League" effect. Have you ever watched who goes to a little league games. Aunts, uncles, cousins neighbors and friends are all part of the crowd. The fans these young drivers bring in will more than pay for their winnings. It is a win/win situation for all involved. It was a great decision made by new Berlin Raceway owner Mike Blackmer. I feel he will reap the rewards along with these young drivers. For a look at the article click on the link below.
