SUPRS to Compete at South Boston Speedway for First Time in Sanction’s 16 Year History
June 19, 2020 – Goshen, IN…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), 16th non-wing supermodified sim racing season continues with the very first visit to the famed South Boston Speedway for the “Battle at South Boston.”
The event will use SUPRS ‘regular’ format where the drivers are lined up by the Points Won Handicap system and have to race up through the field into a transfer spot for the feature. With a great crop of rookies now eligible for their handicap, and a bunch of fast SUPRS veterans starting behind them, means the action will be non-stop from the drop of the first green flag.
The 12 degrees of banking in the corners, and 360 yard straights have allowed the supermodifieds to get down into the 11.4 second range in pre-season testing. To put that into perspective, the real NASCAR type modifieds best recorded lap at SoBo is 13.849 / 103.979 mph on the 4/10 mile asphalt oval.
