HOLLY, Mich. — The Must See Racing Sprint Series Presented by Engine Pro is in the midst of its busiest stretch of the season.
This weekend, the series will be back in action when it invades Berlin Raceway in Marne, Mich. Saturday’s race will be the second of three consecutive weeks of racing. It will also be the first and only visit to Berlin Raceway this year.
The battle for the championship is shaping up to be one of the closest in series history. Only five points separate current point leader Charlie Schultz and second place Joe Liguori. Bobby Santos III is coming off the most recent series victory at Birch Run Speedway last Friday night. Santos III has been unbeatable in MSR competition in 2022 with three wins in three starts, buts sits ninth in points due to not competing in the entire schedule.
The series suffered a heartbreaking blow after five-time series champion Jimmy McCune was lost for the season after suffering severe burns to his feet while competing in a winged dirt sprint car race Saturday night.
McCune announced he was done for the season as he will begin a lengthy healing process. McCune has become the face of the series over the past decade and leads nearly every series statistical category.
The series will be competing at Berlin Raceway for the first time since 2019. A complete racing program is on tap complete with single car qualifying, heat races, and a 30-lap feature event.
