Looking to enjoy some SUPRS racing and meet some new friends. Picked #77 in honor of "The King of Supermodifieds" Bentley Warren. I'll never forget that ragged old car (former swift 10pins) he used to muscle around The Steel Palace in the 70's.
July 27, 2020 – Goshen, IN…After a week away for summer break, The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), returns to racing Tuesday and Wednesday, July 28, 29 with the 13th Annual Mr. Online Supermodified sim racing spectacular. This, two night event features the SUPRS heroes competing with the rFactor and NASCAR Heat sim racing platforms, in their wing and non-wing supermodifieds at Oswego Speedway
Speed, Consistency, Tenacity Key
The 13th Annual Mr. Online Supermodified rewards a driver’s skills and tenacity using two types of sim racing games and two types of supermodifieds. Drivers will need to be faster than a speeding bullet as they compete in their winged rFactor supermodifieds on Tuesday, and switch to their non-wing supermods on Wednesday.
But speed isn’t the only key to overpowering their foes. Over the course of the two nights, a running tally of points will be kept for from time trials, heat races, and the two 50 lap feature races. A driver will need to be consistent, and fast throughout the two-day event if he wants to claim the coveted 13th Annual Mr. Online Supermodified Cup sponsored by 1st to Finish Race Servers.
Be a part of the worldwide audience for the 13th Annual Mr. Online Supermodified race with SUPRS LIVE! Follow your favorite SUPRS Hero all night long with live video, track telemetry and scoring and timing.
For fans that have a Twitch.tv account, the SUPRS Chat is a great place to make new friends, talk sim racing, or real supermodified racing and enjoy the broadcast all on one page. Join the crowd when SUPRS goes “LIVE @ 9” each night with the broadcast.
100 Laps, Double Points as Drivers Hope to Catch Ohh
July 6, 2020 – Goshen, IN…Double points and 100 laps for the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), Mid-Season Championship on July 7, 2020 at Oswego Speedway, may be just what the rest of the drivers need if they want to catch Dave “SpeedyMan” Ohh who sits alone at the top of the SUPRS points chase for non-wing supermodified sim racing by 179 over the next closest competitor.
Wanted: Dave Ohh (AKA SpeedyMan)
Ohh has won the last six SUPRS features in a row and shows no sign of slowing down as he works towards his first SUPRS Gold Crest Season Championship. For the second time in his short SUPRS career, Ohh, of Union, CT, has the SUPRS Bounty on his head and will certainly be the driver to beat in the big 100 lap feature as he runs from the SUPRS Bounty Hunters.
The first driver to beat Ohh will collect the SUPRS Bounty and will “take” ten points from Ohh’s SUPRS Gold Crest Wing Championship total.
If Ohh can keep the streak alive, he will get five championship points added to his total for the night and the bounty will increase by five points until it totals of 25 points.
“SpeedyMan” is really on a roll and with his unbroken string of non-wing supermodified wins going all the way back to July 31 of 2019, the bounty hunters will have their work cut out for them.
Lots of Points
Double Points for the feature have many drivers hoping to seize the opportunity to make a jump in the point standings, or gain a little cushion in the close contest from second to fifth, and sixth to twelfth, in the points.
But it’s not just the double feature points that are up for grabs. Again this year, Drivers will also be gunning for the overall Gold Crest Non-Wing Supermodified Mid-Season Championship. The driver that accumulates the most combined points for his heat race and feature race finish receives 15 bonus points when he’s crowned the Mid-Season Champion.
Other bonus point awards are available during the night including:
SUPRSCharger – Feature (10 points paid to the driver that advances the most places from his starting spot)
There’s a lot of action coming at you this Tuesday July 7, 2020 for the SUPRS Gold Crest Non-Wing Supermodified Mid-Season Championship at Oswego Speedway.
Systems checks begin at 8:00pm, with the drivers hitting the track at 8:30pm for Hot Laps. The Drivers Meeting is at 8:45pm. The SUPRS LIVE! @ 9 show opening is followed by Racing at 9:05pm using the rFactor sim racing platform.
Watch SUPRS LIVE
Supermodified and online racing fans can watch the action with streaming video from three views on SUPRS LIVE! Timing, scoring, track telemetry and stats are also available by going to www.SUPRS.net/site/live on race night.
Double Header of NASCAR Heat & rFactor to Celebrate America’s Birthday
June 26, 2020 – Goshen, IN…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), drivers return to action June 30, 2020 at Oswego Speedway and will celebrate America’s birthday a few days early with the running of the popular “Independence Day Twin 35s.” Action from the NASCAR Heat and rFactor non-wing supermodified sim racing double-header is scheduled to be carried live on the SUPRS Broadcasting Network beginning at 9pm ET.
Oldest Race on Non-Wing Schedule
Not only will SUPRS celebrate freedom and Independence Day, they’ll also celebrate the anniversary of SUPRS very first points race for the SUPRS Gold Crest Non-Wing Supermodified Championship which came on July 6, 2005. The debut of the non-wing supermodifieds for sim racing across the world came with the running of the Independence Day Twin 25s at Jennerstown Speedway. Californian and future SUPRS Champion, John Davidson, and Canadian Sean Gibbs won those races.
Since then, the event has been held at Jennerstown Speedway three other times, including a special 15th Anniversary Edition last year. Beginning in 2008 the race moved to the newly designed Oswego Speedway and has been held there each time the event has been run except for 2011 when Bristol Motor Speedway hosted the show, last year when Richmond Int’l Raceway hosted the second race, and 2012 and 2015 when the event was not held.
Slight Twist to Old Event
The 2020 version of SUPRS Independence Day Twin 35s features a slight twist to the ageless event. After successfully using both NASCAR Heat and rFactor, (albeit at two different tracks), in 2019, this year’s event will do so for the first time at the same track.
The added dimension of having to master two different sim racing games should prove to make the evening that much harder to master, and provide fans with more storylines to enjoy during the live broadcast.
Tough to Sweep Both Features
Because of the format and the short race distance, sweeping both features for the night has been very uncommon. Just three drivers have accomplished the tall order, and only one has done it more than once.
Kris Heveron was the first to pull off the sweep when he won both 45 lap features at Jennerstown in 2008. It took eight years before it would happen again and it was a surprise to everyone when Chad Phelps, who had never won a SUPRS feature in six years of trying, won both 35 laps features the first time the event was contested using rFactor at Oswego Speedway.
Then, the very next year, Rob Warren, after starting fourth in the first 35 and sixth in the second, joined Heveron and Phelps in that rare club of drivers that have swept both races of the Independence Day Twins. In fact, last year Warren surpassed Heveron on the Independence Day Twins All-Time Win List when he won his fifth overall.
Other Former Winners Expected
Joining Warren as former winners of at least one of the Independence Day Twins are Steve Callahan, Gary Waldron, and Keith Powell, all of whom are expected to compete on June 30.
Callahan has two total Independence Day wins, both coming at Oswego Speedway, and both using the NASCAR Heat platform. Callhan’s first win was in 2010 in the second feature and his second came in 2013, also in the second.
Waldron, who’s had an up and down season so far this summer, but has finished as high as third, won the second 40 lap feature at Jennerstown Speedway in 2006.
Meanwhile, Powell, who is enduring the worst season of his career, finishing just one of the previous four SUPRS features, is the driver that kept Rob Warren having three Independence Day sweeps. Powell won the first feature in 2018.
Race Details
Official practice for the SUPRS “Independence Day Twin 35s” begins at 8:00pm. There is a Drivers meeting at 8:15pm. Racing is set to start at 8:30pm with the first of two 10 lap qualifying heat races. The green flag for the first 35 lap feature is schedule to fly at about 9:05pm.
More details, including full format and schedule of events are available on the SUPRS Schedule. SUPRS members should check the Forums for the latest info on server times and passwords.
This race is also part of the SUPRS/HeatFinder.net NASCAR Heat Supermodified Challenge which is open to the public.

SUPRS to Compete at South Boston Speedway for First Time in Sanction’s 16 Year History
June 19, 2020 – Goshen, IN…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), 16th non-wing supermodified sim racing season continues with the very first visit to the famed South Boston Speedway for the “Battle at South Boston.”
The event will use SUPRS ‘regular’ format where the drivers are lined up by the Points Won Handicap system and have to race up through the field into a transfer spot for the feature. With a great crop of rookies now eligible for their handicap, and a bunch of fast SUPRS veterans starting behind them, means the action will be non-stop from the drop of the first green flag.
The 12 degrees of banking in the corners, and 360 yard straights have allowed the supermodifieds to get down into the 11.4 second range in pre-season testing. To put that into perspective, the real NASCAR type modifieds best recorded lap at SoBo is 13.849 / 103.979 mph on the 4/10 mile asphalt oval.
Watch the Race Live
The SUPRS racers are set to “Battle at South Boston” on June 23, 2020. An extended practice session starts at 8:00pm. Racing gets underway at 9:05pm with the first of two schedule 10 lap qualifying Heat Races. The Battle at South Boston 45 lap non-wing supermodified sim racing feature is expected to take the green flag at around 9:30pm ET.
Come cheer on your favorite SUPRS racers at the virtual version of this historic racetrack. Enjoy chat, timing, scoring, instant track telemetry and of course our outstanding live streaming video from the Battle at South Boston via the SUPRS LIVE! page.
