Both Zach Newlin and Austin Berry planned to be behind the wheel this past weekend. Mother Nature wasn’t cooperative. Â
Â
“Zach Daddy” was slated to strap into the Mansberger Motorsports 358 sprint car on Friday, May 7th at Williams Grove Speedway but racing was cancelled due to weather, as was his 410 season debut on Saturday night at Port Royal Speedway in the Burke Motorsports ride.
Â
Austin Berry was anxious to get back to the track Saturday, May 8th at Port Royal to continue building on the top 10 run he had logged the week prior, but of course that was nixed as well.
Â
The only unaffected team was Kyle Reinhardt and the RQM Enterprises, Capitol Renegade No.91 team, who had already planned to take the weekend off to prepare for an upcoming busy stretch. Next up for Reinhardt is a trip to the Midwest for two events with the All Star Circuit of Champions. On May 14th the tour will stop at I-96 Speedway in Lake Odessa, MI, followed by a stop at Route 66 Raceway in Joliet, IL on May 15th.
Â
As for Austin Berry Racing, they are sorting out their options for the coming weeks. Selinsgrove Speedway on May 15th and the the 2-day World of Outlaw Late Models show at Port Royal Speedway on Fri/Sat May 21st-22nd are all on their radar but final decisions have not yet been made. Stay tuned to Addicted2Dirt PR’s website and social media for updates.
Â
Next up for Zach Newlin will be a weekend off as well, then he will be back in the seat of the Mansberger Motorsports 358 sprint car for a show at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday, May 21st, followed (tentatively) by Port Royal Speedway on Saturday, May 22nd in the Burke Motorsports 410 sprint car.
