January 27, 2018 – Goshen, IN…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), Mid-Season Championship is coming January 30, 2018 to “The Home of the Supermodifieds” Oswego Speedway. With Double Points for the Twin 35 lap features, this night of supermodified sim racing shouldn’t be missed.

Double Points, Many Bonuses

Both feature races reward all the drivers with double points regardless of where they finish. Not only that, but the SUPRSChallenge and SUPRS Charger bonus is available for both features. The SUPRSCharger awards 10 points to the driver that advances the most places from where he started, while the SUPRSChallenge is another 20 bonus points if a driver starts last and wins.

Double Down

Perhaps the biggest bonus is the SUPRS Double Down. This bonus goes to a driver that can win both feature races on the same night and gives him double points on his second feature win. So a racer that wins both features on Tuesday night, gets a whopping 480 points!

For many years only a couple of drivers had ever accomplished winning this bonus, but lately, reigning SUPRS Gold Crest Wing Supermodified Champion Rob Warren has made this feat look easy, claiming it more than once in a span of 12 months.

Mid-Season Champion Bonus

SUPRS has always believed that if you call something a championship, it should really mean something. With that in mind, the Mid-season Championship pays a 10 point bonus to the driver that can tally the most points from time trials to the checkered flag of the second feature.

Part  of ESS Tour

For the second week in a row a New York show for SUPRS is also as part of the Empire State Super Series Regional Tour. The tour includes only those tracks in the state of New York and, since 2015, a mixture of NASCAR Heat and rFactor gaming platforms.

The ESS season is generally composed of anywhere between three to six races and run over the course of one year and two SUPRS Gold Crest Seasons. Each race uses a similar format of Time Trials, handicapped Heat Races and an inverted start for the Feature.

See the Action Live

Get ready for a huge night of racing with the SUPRS Wing Mid-Season Championship January 30, 2018 at Oswego Speedway. Racing gets underway at 9:00pm and everyone is welcome to enjoy it all with SUPRS LIVE!

SUPRS Racers Going on a Blind Date

Second of Five Race Empire State Super Series Regional Tour is Blind Date

January 21, 2018 – Goshen, IN…The second race of the year-long Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), 2017-18 Empire State Super Series, (ESS), Regional Tour is a Blind Date night. And like a real blind date, the drivers don’t know exactly what to expect.

Tradition of Blind Date Night Goes Way Back

The SUPRS Blind Date Night has been a tradition since the very start of the oldest supermodified sim racing sanction when it ran four races in one night on New Year’s Eve. Those races were known as the New Year’s Eve 4-n-1 Bash.

2017-18 ESS Format

After the SUPRS Members decided they’d rather spend time with their family and friends on New Year’s Eve, drawing one out of a three potential tracks continued on for the ESS Tour and the tradition continued.

Long ESS Season

The ESS season is generally composed of anywhere between three to six races and run over the course of one year and two SUPRS Gold Crest Seasons. Each race uses the same format of Time Trials, handicapped Heat Races and an inverted start for the Feature.

The tour includes only those tracks in the state of New York and, since 2015, a mixture of NASCAR Heat and rFactor gaming platforms.

Three Former ESS Champs Expected

Defending ESS Champion Rob Warren, and 2013-14 ESS Champ Steve Callahan sit first and second in the current ESS points with 2015-16 ESS Champion Bob Gangwer fourth behind Kyle Clark. All four drivers should be racing Tuesday as they are also in the top five of the 2017-18 SUPRS Gold Crest Championship point standings

Powell Looking for New York Love

SUPRS most recent feature winner Keith Powell of Ohio has never won an ESS Tour feature. He is second in Gold Crest Championship points and would love nothing more than to avenge his loss in the first ESS show of the season.

CURRENT ESS POINTS

At that race, (the Christmas Special at Airborne Speedway in December), Powell led the race from the drop of the green flag until contact with Rob Warren on the white flag lap put him out of contention for the win.

See the Action Live

Mark your calendars for the ESS Blind Date Night, January 23, 2018. A 15 minute practice session starts at 8:15pm with Time Trials to follow at 8:45pm. Racing gets underway at 9:00pm and everyone is welcome to enjoy it all with SUPRS LIVE!

Cheer on your favorite SUPRS racers while you view timing, scoring, and of course our outstanding live streaming video of the ESS Blind Date night when we go “Live @ 9pm est via the SUPRS LIVE! page.
