2019 Tracks Remain the Same

The tracks on the SUPRS Florida Speedweeks list for 2019 are the same as 2018. New Smyrna Speedway is the first of the five on Monday night. This is a 50 lap feature using the rFactor racing sim. On Tuesday, the lone NASCAR Heat race of the swing happens at Black Creek Raceway and is 25 laps. This race is part of the SUPRS/HeatFinder.net Supermodified Challenge and open to all that have the game, mod, and track, and have registered to race 24 hours prior the event.

On Wednesday the racers face one of the toughest nights during the week at the 1/3 mile Dodge Raceway Stadium. They’ll be fighting for traction and racing room throughout the 50 lap show inside a football stadium where Nelson Rodrigues is a two-time defending winner.

The fourth night of Speedweeks takes place where the racers will welcome the extra racing room. The big, fast, high-banked 3/4 mile of USA International Speedway is the scene for a 25 lap feature.

Finally on Friday, February 8, SUPRS Florida Speedweeks comes to a close and a champion will wear the crown after a 50 lap show at 5 Flags Speedway in Pensacola

Variety is Spice of Speedweeks

Every track is completely different and the week includes tracks from a 1/3 mile inside a stadium to high-banked 3/4 mile and everything in between. This variation of track sizes, plus two different sim racing platforms always makes for great racing and unpredictable finishes each night. 

Never Predictable

With just time trials and a feature inverted by handicaps every night, the outcome is never predictable. The racing was nothing short of fantastic last year with two first-time SUPRS feature winners and a new Speedweeks champion. So it’s not unlikely that this year will be just as thrilling and may very well produce another new Speedweeks champ.

Five Nights of Action

Practice begins each night at 8pm. Time Trials will take place at 8:30 and the feature race is set to take the green flag at 9pm every night. The winner of the overall Florida Speedweeks Championship receives a five-pound bag of Florida Oranges.
