Hello Race Fans

So much going on in racing this week, it seemed like a good time to share with our amazing fans so we all keep up to date with what’s happening in the sport.

Can Berlin Raceway follow NASCAR’s plan to race without fans? Pay-per-view would be the way to go

Hi all and Happy New Year.
RacingAwareness kicked off 2020 by making its final charitable donation to Dr Giselle Sholler and the Helen DeVos Children's Hospital. This most recent donation of $100,000 brings the RA total to $600,000 and closes out our 10 year run as a charity and as a race team.

We would like to thank all of you that supported us as a fan, volunteer or partner.

Here is your opportunity to purchase the most successful Modified in the Mid-west over the past decade.

51 features and 5 track championships with multiple drivers including AJ Almandinger and Mike Skinner! This car has a brand new Baker engine with all the best parts in it, only 2 races old. Brand new front clip that is also 2 races old with a feature on it since being rebuilt. This chassis is a one off Perfect Circle racecar. With the track switching directions it would allow this car to run and dominate somewhere else or to have a limited body on it and be bad fast at Berlin.

We are unclear what this car is worth and looking for an offer. Serious buyers only, no shoppers or tire kickers that want to see what makes this car fast......don't have time for them. Email for more information.

Thank you Michigan International Speedway! You were RA’s launching pad all the way back to 2003. We look forward to you hosting our supporter and our patient special family in 2020!

Good Morning Race Fans!

Before we all head to the track for tonight's season-ending racing and Racing Awareness' last run, we'd like to share some of the really cool things you did over the last 10 years at the track that didn't involve driving in circles. 😀

These are just a few from the archives. What great memories are your camera roll? We'd love to see your favorite memories from the past 10 years. Please post in the comments or share them with us via DM.

It's a beautiful Saturday morning and all of us at RA are looking forward to an amazing day of reminiscing, as well as continuing to make memories! Can't wait to see you at the track!

Last Call!🏁

10th Anniversary RA Charity t-shirts will be available tonight during the autograph session and at the 55L trailer! $10, all proceeds go to Helen DeVos Children's Hospital

For anyone planning to attend Project Night Lights tonight, we are advising to stay home. The sever weather in downtown has caused power outages and debris in the roads. We can say the tornado sirens have stopped at least!😳

Be safe RA family and we’ll see everyone Saturday at the races!

For anyone planning to attend Project Night Lights tonight, we advise planning for the October event. The downtown area has sparstic power outages and tree damage on Michigan making it challenging to get to the hospital.

Be safe out there tonight West Michigan!
