MOORESVILLE, N.C. (June 28, 2017) – After a month hiatus, the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East (NKNPSE) will return to action this Saturday, July 1, at Berlin Raceway located in Marne, Michigan. MDM Motorsports will field two entries in the Berlin 150 with drivers Harrison Burton and Travis Miller.
MDM Motorsports driver, Burton, is the current NKNPSE points leader with six top-five finishes and three wins in six races. He won the Memphis 125, the most recent NKNPSE event, on June 3 at Memphis (Tenn.) International Raceway. This win gave Burton a 26-point lead over the second-place contender in KNKPSE point standings.
Harrison Burton, driver of the DEX Imaging No. 12… Burton is the current NKNPSE points leader. He has wins at Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway, South Boston (Va.) Speedway, and Memphis International Raceway this season. He also has an ARCA Racing Series victory at Toledo (Ohio) Speedway. Burton made his Berlin Raceway debut on Monday, June 19, in the Super Late Model Money in the Bank 150. He finished third and gained valuable experience heading into Saturday’s Inaugural NKNPSE Berlin Raceway event.
Burton on Berlin: “Berlin is a tricky track,” Burton said. “The line you run around there is something you don’t see anywhere else. Running the Money in the Bank 150 in the super late model will be a big help come Saturday in the K&N car. MDM Motorsports as a whole has had a great year, so to say I’m excited to get back into the seat of one of their cars is an understatement. My No. 12 team has been on it this year. It will be fun to get on track this weekend and see what we have.”
