Berlin Raceway Opens 2024 Season: Everything You Need To Know

The 74th season of racing at Marne, Michigan’s tricky half-mile of Berlin Raceway kicks off with Saturday’s running of the 12th Annual Icebreaker. A 75-lap Super Late Model feature will headline the afternoon’s festivities that will see four total divisions in action for seven feature events.

Before the racing gets started, we wanted to make sure fans were up to date with “Everything You Need To Know” before Berlin Raceway kicks off its 2024 season.

What Division Is the Headliner At Berlin Raceway?

Throughout the season the Super Late Model division will serve as the premier class. Super Late Models are a full-fendered race cars capable of producing close to 600 horsepower. 

The Super Late Models also run the biggest and longest events of the year with races like the Money in the Bank and the Battle at Berlin paying out large checks to the winner of those extra-distance races.

Who Are the Most Recent Icebreaker Winners?

Most recently, local hero Evan Shotko took the checkered flag in the 75-lap Icebreaker feature to kick off the 2023 season at Berlin. One year before that it was Brighton, Michigan’s Kyle Crump who held off Joe Bush and Carson Hocevar to score the win. 

Who Are The Favorites To Win The Icebreaker?

Shotko and Crump of course will be two of the heavy-hitters in Saturday’s feature, but the favorite has to be Brian Campbell. Campbell is a multi-time track champion at Berlin Raceway, and has won everything there is to win at Berlin as well. 

The Battle Creek Michigan driver has won 18 times across various touring series at Berlin, and that’s not even including his many wins in weekly racing competition. If you want to win a race at Berlin Raceway, the path to victory lane goes through Brian Campbell.

What Divisions Are Racing With The Super Late Models?

Saturday’s Icebreaker event is a four-division event with seven features taking place. The Super Late Models are headlining the event with a 75-lap feature at the end of Saturday’s racing program.

Before that, the Sportsman, Limited Late Models, and the 4-Cylinder class will all run double features during Saturday’s racing program.
