MARNE, MI (7-23-2009) – Following last weekend’s top-ten run at Kentucky Speedway, ARCA RE/MAX Series rookie Joey Coulter is eager to go short track racing this weekend at Berlin Raceway for the Wolverine Power Systems 200 presented by Generac.

Coming off a well respected seventh place finish at Kentucky, where the 19-year-old had to resort to a back-up car after making contact with the turn two wall in qualifying Coulter stated, “I like the intermediate tracks a lot, but not as much as the short tracks. Our team has an excellent short track program going on right now and I want to be able to take advantage of it this Saturday night when we go to Berlin.”

Coulter continued, “I’ve heard that it’s an interesting place to race, I’ve looked it up and the fact that it doesn’t have a backstretch wall is a little awkward. However, our goal is just like any other weekend, go out and perform our best and be in contention to bring home that trophy when the checkered flag waves.”

Coulter’s most recent short track appearance came at Mansfield Motorsports Park, were he brought home a career-best second in the Tim Richmond Memorial 200.

To date, Coulter has competed in all eleven ARCA RE/MAX Series events and is currently fourth in the championship point standings. The Miami Springs, Florida native has one Menards Pole Award (Iowa), four consecutive top-five finishes, along with seven top-ten finishes in 2009.

The one-day show at Berlin Raceway gets underway Saturday, July 25 with practice scheduled from 2:30 – 4:00 p.m. EST, followed by Menards Pole Qualifying presented by Ansell at 5:00 p.m. The start of the Wolverine Power Systems 200 presented by Generac is scheduled to go off at 8:30 p.m. Saturday night.
