Brad Keysor Sweeps the New England 50 at Lee USA Speedway

April 9, 2019 – Lee, NH…Lee USA Speedway played host to the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), New England 50 Tuesday night and rookie Brad Keysor dominated the night after setting the track record, the fastest lap of the feature, and leading the most laps enroute to his fourth feature win of the season. Rob Warren finished second and Dave Ohh hung on for third place.

Consistent Car is Joy to Drive

Keysor said that, “The car didn’t change at all in the feature, and I knew I could push the car hard for the first 30 laps.”

The Southern Hills Storm Football sponsored driver added, “It all worked out tonight with the handicap, great lapped traffic, and a solid car that I was able to keep in line. Thanks to 1st to Finish Race Servers, Icings on Top, BreezeGraphics.com and Kevin Timmins for all the hard work to make us look good out there on race nights.”

Level Playing Field

The winner, from Liverpool, NY, quickly felt at home on the New Hampshire track. Part of the reason is because none of the SUPRS racers had a lot of experience at this track. “I really liked this track,” said Keysor. “It’s a driver’s track that to do well on, you have to think about, not just stab and steer.” Realistically, I think the other thing that leveled out the playing field is that the rest of the guys hadn’t been here repeatedly to where they had playbooks full of notes going back 15 years.”

Caution Causes Concern

After a long green flag run of 31 laps, the caution came out for Carl Becker when he spun on the front stretch and collected the third place running Keith Powell. Powell was able to continue with minor damage, but Becker was done for the night.

Keysor’s big lead suddenly disappeared and even though he had the lapped car of Kyle Clark as a spacer for the restart, he found himself thinking about the driver that would restart behind him. “I was very concerned about that caution,” he admitted. “I know Rob is very good on restarts and Dave was right behind him. With cold tires, you just never know and you could be a sitting duck at the front of the field.

Rookie Flyers

The rookies were fast again as both Brad Keysor and Dave Ohh put themselves into the Fast 4 with Keysor turning a lap of 12.609 to establish a SUPRS track record at Lee USA Speedway. Ohh was only slightly slower with a lap of 12.718

SUPRS All-Star Classic 200 Next

The SUPRS All-Star Classic 200 is up next on the schedule. Modeled after the real supermodified “Star Classic” this race is the first of the 2019 Icings on Top Triple Crown of Supermodified Sim Racing.

Just 12 drivers make the show, and that alone makes it something special. Add in the facts that the racing is contested within the confines of Star Speedway’s quarter-mile, there’s heavy traffic almost from the drop of the green, the track tends to get slick as the race wears on with drivers becoming fatigued turning 10 second laps, you can bet that this is one of the toughest races on the SUPRS schedule.
