Brian Campbell Wins ASA Midwest Tour Port City Racecars 100

Berlin Veteran Scores Victory in First-Ever ASAMT Race at the Track

ASA Midwest Tour PR
Brian Campbell had a stellar night at Berlin Raceway as he captured his first ASA Midwest Tour presented by SCAG Power Equipment and Lester Buildings win at Berlin Raceway in Marne, MI. Campbell started 16th and took the lead with 20 laps to go in the series first visit to the famous 7/16-mile oval.

The local stars shined tonight they ruled the podium with Terry VanHaitsma finishing second and Alec Carll in third. Tim DeVos was fourth and Boris Jurkovic rounded out the top-five.

Ty Majeski started on the pole and took the early lead in the main event. Jacob Goede would get by Majeski on lap 15 and pulls away. Goede would hold on to the lead until lap 39 when Tim DeVos, who started 13th, would fly by Goede and take over the top spot.

DeVos would continue to lead while being challenged by Carll. Every time Carll would get on the inside, the two would catch up to lap traffic causing Carll to fall back behind DeVos.

As the two battled through lap traffic, this allowed Campbell to catch the two in the closing laps.

With 20 laps to go, Campbell would catch the DeVos and Carll and go on the inside of Carll to take over second. While still on the inside, he would make the winning move by getting by DeVos.

Campbell thought would have an easy cruise to the finish. Behind him, VanHaitsma was flying and at the checkers was only a few car lengths behind Campbell to finish in the runner-up spot.

Caleb Bisacky finished sixth while Jordan Dahlke finished seventh. Lane Automotive Rookie contender Matt Tifft finished eighth while Andrew Morrissey finished ninth. Skylar Holzhausen rounded out the top-ten.

Campbell also picked up his first ECHO Chainsaw as he was the quick qualifier with a time of 15.853. Majeski won the Top-16 Qualifier heat and Haseleu won the qualifier race by a bumper over Lake.

The ASA Midwest Tour next stop will be on Tuesday, June 12 at the Milwaukee Mile for The Swiss Colony Howie Lettow Memorial 150. Rusty Wallace will make his return behind the wheel racing with the ASA Midwest Tour stars. Matt Kenseth, Aric Almirola, David Ragan, David Stremme and more will also be competing in this special event benefiting the MACC Fund.
