Elliott, who cut his teeth racing Super Late Models prior to becoming a NASCAR Cup Series champion, has major Super Late Model victories in the Snowball Derby (2), All American 400 and Winchester 400. He has five career starts at Berlin Raceway, with his most recent start coming during the 2015 Battle at Berlin.
Fresh off his win in the Money in the Bank 150 earlier this year, Erik Jones return to Berlin Raceway looking to complete the sweep of the track's major Super Late Model events. Jones is a two-time Battle at Berlin winner and a former ARCA Menards Series winner at the Marne, Michigan oval.

While Berry doesn't have the amount of experience Elliott and Jones have behind the wheel of a Super Late Model, he is not a complete stranger to the division. Berry has a handful of Super Late Model starts in his career, including a pair of starts in the prestigious Snowball Derby.
Berry, who dominated the Late Model Stock Car division for many years before receiving NASCAR opportunities, will team up with TK Racing for his Berlin Raceway debut during the Battle at Berlin.
