Second Season of SUPRS rFactor Racing Begins with 12th Annual Port City Kick-Off

May 25, 2016 – Goshen, IN…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), is ready to embark on it’s 2016 Gold Crest Non-Wing Championship on Wednesday, June 1, 2016 at Oswego Speedway with the Port City Kick-Off.

BreezeGraphics.com helps SUPRS Kick-Off another season in fine style.

The 12th Annual Port City Kick-Off will be the first race of a 14 race season schedule and many of the drivers are excited to get rolling on an updated version of SUPRS extremely detailed Oswego Speedway for rFactor.

When the supermodified sim racers unveil their new paint jobs for the season, they will also find themselves behind the wheel of a more refined non-wing sim supermodified that features better brakes, less aero-push, and the ability to select different compound tires.

SUPRS first Non-Wing supermodified race happened in August 2005 at Jennerstown Speedway with the NASCAR Heat platform. A 10 race schedule of feature races that were 40 laps started that summer of racing and 19 drivers were in attendance for that first event, (The Independence Day Twin 25s). John Davidson and Sean Gibbs picked up the feature victories and Jim Crannell went on to become SUPRS first Non-Wing Supermodified Champion.

Beginning in 2008, the first ever online version of Oswego Speedway was unveiled by SUPRS and Myles Maxon picked up the season opener. He then went on to win the championship and is still the only driver to have ever to won the season opener and the season championship.

Last year Rob Warren became the first sim racer to be crowned an Oswego Speedway Champion in rFactor when he claimed the SUPRS Gold Crest Non-Wing Championship, and the 2011 Port City Kick-Off winner has been the fastest in pre-season testing so far. He is one of only two drivers to crack the 16.4 second bracket along with 2015-16 Gold Crest Wing Supermodified Icing’s on Top Rookie of the Year Brian Potvin.

Ray Sand, Jr. captured the first ever SUPRS rFactor race.

Last year, Ray Sand, Jr. won his second Port City Kick-Off, (and the very first SUPRS rFactor race), and joined Myles Maxon and John Davidson as a multi-time winner of this race. Maxon has more opening day wins than any other SUPRS racer with three.

Rob Warren and Bob Gangwer are the only other active drivers that have a shot at joining the multi-time winners of the Port City Kick-Off. Gangwer won way back in 2009, while Warren’s win in 2011 was his first-ever victory at Oswego Speedway.

About KTimmins77

Supermodified fan for over 30 years. Heard about this MOD and had to give it try! Been doing graphic art and design for along time. Owner of Breezegraphics Supermodified Art. Specializing in Vinyl Stickers and Window Clings. So designing my own paint scheme is right up my alley. :) 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.
