Quick Results: Warren Seals Deal at IRP

Share SUPRS:

April 30, 2019 – Claremont, IN…Rob Warren won both features, and nearly all the available bonus points at the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), Indyana Supermod Challenge at Indianapolis Raceway Park Tuesday. It’s likely that his performance was good enough to seal the deal on taking SUPRS 15th Anniversary Gold Crest Wing Supermodified Championship.

Powell Put Pressure On

Keith Powell trailed Warren by just seven championship points, and was ten points in front of Warren for the Indyana Supermod Challenge, (ISC), Championship coming into the double-header at IRP. Throughout the night, he did everything he could to keep the pressure on Warren. He set fast time, ran third in the heat that Warren won, and finished second in both of the features that Warren won.

After the first feature, Powell still looked to be in contention as he hopped out of his wing supermodified and slid into his non-wing “Mayfield Missile,” Powell had lost just three points over all to Warren in the championship and still had a five point lead in the ISC running.

Too Much to Overcome

Unfortunately for Powell, and even though he and Warren started side by side at the rear of the field for the second 50 lap feature, Warren overcame it all and marched to the lead past Powell’s teammate, Steve Callahan, on lap27. In so doing, Warren claimed every bonus point available in the second feature including: the Double Down, (winning two features in one night), the SUPRSCharger, (advancing the most places), and a SUPRSChallenge, (starting last and winning). Plus the win put him in a tie with Powell for the ISC Championship and because he had the most wins in the four race series, Warren was deemed the overall ISC champion for the second year in a row and gained another 15 points for that.

Mathematical Chance All That’s Left

They say that “it’s not over until it’s over,” and with the last race of the season coming on Tuesday at the 15th Annual Summit Classic 125, Powell does still have a mathematical chance at the season championship. He trails Warren by 86 markers, and there is a total of 107 points available for a perfect night. Realistically though, all Warren has to do is show up and start the feature to claim his third SUPRS Gold Crest Wing Supermodified Championship
