Wing Side Up Twins Because Two are Better Than One

Share SUPRS:

Goshen, IN – November 29, 2015…The Wing Side Up Twin 25s sim for the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), has always been a race filled with nail-biting, high-bank riding action and this year is likely to be no different.

For the 12th year Bob Gangwer’s Wing Side Up on the World Wide Web will sponsor the night of sim supermodified action and as on several occasions in the past, non-wing supermodifieds will be on the card. The only difference is, this year, BOTH of the 25 lap features will be contested without the wings and the drivers will use the SUPRS rFactor NW V1 mod.

“When we first started SUPRS, there was no Winchester, Salem, Toledo, or Dayton Speedway’s so the closest thing to those tracks where I grew up watching supermodifieds at was Bristol,” said Gangwer who is also the SUPRS co-founder.
“So, with this being one of the original NASCAR Heat tracks, we thought it would be a blast to run two quick sprints here and it’s turned out pretty good every year since.”

The two-race event quickly became a favorite of SUPRS racers as they test their nerves and skill while turning sub-11 second laps in a short 25 lap feature that leaves no time for preserving equipment.

Featuring the SUPRS Double Down, SUPRSChallenge, and SUPRSCharger bonuses is just one part of the wild Wing Side Up raciness. For the Double Down, a driver can double his feature finish points if he can win both features. With the SUPRSChallenge, the driver that starts last in each feature can claim 20 bonus points if he can make it to the front to win. The SUPRSCharger award is good for 10 bonus points to the driver that advances the most places from his feature starting spot.

While all of those may seem somewhat easy, the Double Down has only been claimed twice and the SUPRSChallenge has never been claimed at this event. Doug Heveron and John Davidson are the only drivers to have won both features on the same night. Heveron doing it in 2007 and Davidson in 2012.

Adding to the challenge of racing at Bristol, the first race includes time trials and heat to set the feature starting field while the second feature is a complete inversion of the first feature’s finish.

The SUPRS racers are ready to double the action and double the fun on the big banks of Bristol Motor Speedway this Tuesday December 1, 2015. Official practice starts at 8pm with the Driver’s Meeting at 8:15pm. The drivers will take to the track for Time Trials at 8:30 and the racing is set to go begin at 9pm.

Supermodified and online sim racing fans and friends can savor the action and view timing and scoring of every SUPRS rFactor race in an instant, including the 12th Annual Wing Side Up Twin 25s via the SUPRS LIVE! page.

SUPRS Racers Shooting for Burgers’ Smokehouse Turkey

Share SUPRS:

November 16, 2015 – Goshen, IN…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), 11th Annual Turkey Shoot takes place this Tuesday November 17 and the winner won’t go hungry when he’s awarded a Burgers’ Smokehouse turkey, delivered to the doorstep in time to enjoy it with the family for Thanksgiving dinner.

You could win a Burgers’ Smokehouse Thanksgiving Turkey!

The succulent slow smoked turkey has a value of over $60 and comes from a family company that was started in 1952 by E.M. Burger in Moniteau County Missouri.

Bugers’ Smokehouse can trace it’s roots all the way back to the 1920s when E.M. Burger’s parents startedBurgers' Smokehouse logo curing hams on their local farm. Now known as one of the largest companies of its kind, the time-honored traditions of hard work and special personal touch have never been lost, to the point that, according to the Burgers’ website, each ham still starts the curing process by being hand-rubbed with a seasoning blend dating back to one developed by the family over 100 years ago.

The 11th Annual Turkey Shoot is the second race of the 2015-16 Gold Crest Wing Championship Season to use the SUPRS NW V1 non-wing supermodified for rFactor. Not only is that a bit of a change from prior Turkey Shoot’s but after many years of the race being held at Tri-Park Speedway, this year’s race will be held at Memphis Motorsports Park for the first time since 2007.

For the first three years of the Turkey Shoot it was held at the big 3/4 mile track and varied in length from 63-40 laps. John Davidson won the very first show in 2005 with Chris Meyers picking up one of his first SUPRS feature wins in 2006. The last time the race was held at Memphis in 2007, Florida’s Kris Heveron was the winner over Dave Soja, Myles Maxon and a bevy of other talented sim racers in the 17 car field.

Nom, Nom, Nom thanks to Burgers’ Smokehouse!

Last year Carl Becker of Lansing, MI led the entire 50 lap race to claim his first Turkey Shoot victory, while in 2013, Joey Callahan not only claimed his first Turkey Shoot, he won his first ever SUPRS feature. Both drivers capitalized on their starting position which is set by  the six lap Turkey Trot qualifying race for the Elite 8 time trialed cars.
