December 8, 2018…The winner of the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), 15th Christmas Special on December 11 at Rander Speedway can expect some good eats from Burgers’ Smokehouse in time for Christmas dinner.

SUPRS 2018 Christmas Special


Burgers’ Ham Valued by SUPRS Racers

As has been the case, nearly since the beginning of this race, a Burgers’ Smokehouse Christmas Ham is awarded to the winner* for his accomplishment. This is one of the reasons the SUPRS racers look forward to this race as much as any other on the schedule.

The fine folks at Burgers’ Ozark Country Hams have been providing simple traditions since 1952 when they built their first “ham house” on their farm in Missouri. With complete attention to quality and customer service, this family owned company continues to do things the old-fashioned way taking great care in the time-honored traditions of curing, aging, and smoking superior quality products.

Back to Rander Speedway

SUPRS will race at Rander Speedway for the first time since 2016 at this year’s Christmas Special. Historically, Rander was always the site of the Dion Parish Memorial, but once the rFactor sim racing platform started being used, a move to Dion Parish’s favorite track, Kalamazoo Speedway happened, and Rander was dropped from the schedule.

Rander is a fictional, high-banked, half-mile paved oval built by Mike Jackson for the DSES sim racing leagues many years ago and has always proved to be a fine track for supermodifieds.

HeatFinder.net Open Show

The 15th Christmas Special is part of the 14 race SUPRS NASCAR HeatFinder.net Open Show Challenge. This should increase the car count and add several drivers that are specifically focused on winning a NASCAR Heat supermodified sim race. This added twist of having drivers that excel at this particular sim racing platform should make the night more interesting from the aspect of the SUPRS regulars going for the Gold Crest Wing Championship, are up against some very talented sim racers.

Christmas Special Last Show of 2018

The SUPRS 15th Christmas Special is the last show before a two week break in the sim racing action. This annual break allows members the opportunity to spend time with their families during Christmas and New Year’s without concentrating on turning left in their sim racing supermodified.

More Details

SUPRS 15th Christmas Special takes place December 11, 2018 beginning with practice which starts at 8:00pm. Qualifying follows at 8:45pm and Racing gets underway at 9:05pm with the Reindeer Dash.

The Christmas Special will be availabe on SUPRS LIVE! Fans, friends and family can enjoy live commentary, interviews, and all the racing action with streaming video  via the SUPRS LIVE! page.

Christmas Special for SUPRS

December 10, 2017 – Goshen, IN…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), tradition of ending the year with their Christmas Special continues on December 12, 2017. For the second year in a row the race takes place at a new venue and for the first time, it’s part of the Empire State Super Series tour.

First Time at Airborne

Airborne Speedway is the site of the action on Tuesday and is the first time that SUPRS has raced at this Plattsburgh, NY track. Airborne hosted the International Supermodified Association several times, so it’s not so unusual to be racing virtual supermodifieds there. Also, because it’s a New York track, this race kicks off the 2017-18 Empire State Super Series and is the first of an expanded five race schedule for the regional tour championship.

Tricky and Technical

Getting around Airborne Speedway smoothly has proven to be a challenge for the SUPRS racers during pre-race testing. With flat, tight corners that cap the drag strip straights, the track is certainly one of the more technical that the sim racers visit this season.

They have found that braking is just as important as mashing the throttle. If a driver wants to win, he’ll need all of his skills to negotiate the tricky turns using precise braking, steering, and throttle control throughout the quick 25 lap sprint.

On Dancer, On Prancer

The six lap Reindeer Dash sets the starting positions for the Fast 4 qualifiers based on their finish.

Everyone else will go to heat races to be lined up based on their season won points handicaps. The way they finish the heat race is the way they will start the 25 lap feature behind the Reindeer Dash drivers.

Christmas Gift for Winner

Whomever takes the checkered flag first on Tuesday, he’ll take home a Burgers’ Smokehouse Christmas Ham for his accomplishment.

SUPRS Racers Take Aim at Bugers’ Smokehouse Prize at Turkey Shoot

Winner of SUPRS 13th Annual Turkey Shoot Gets Burgers’ Smokehouse Turkey

November 10, 2017 – Goshen, IN…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), racers are ready to bring out the big guns as they go on the hunt for a Burgers’ Smokehouse turkey at the 13th Annual Turkey Shoot Tuesday, November 14 at Memphis Motorsports Park.

This race is one of the most anticipated of the season because of the award for being the winner. The driver in victory lane after 40 laps receives a Burgers’ Smokehouse turkey, delivered to the doorstep in time to enjoy it with the family for Thanksgiving dinner. Many times in the races history though, the winner hasn’t had the pleasure of tasting that delicious bird, opting instead to donate it to others in need.

Turkey Shoot & Memphis

For the first three years of the Turkey Shoot it was held at the big 3/4 mile track and varied in length from 63-40 laps. John Davidson won the very first show in 2005 with Chris Meyers picking up one of his first SUPRS feature wins in 2006. Florida’s Kris Heveron was the winner in 2007 in a 17 car field.

After seven years at Tri-Park Speedway, (a fictional asphalt tri-oval in Tennessee), the race returned to its roots on the Mississippi River in 2015. In that race, Ray Sand, Jr. became the All-Time Turkey Shoot winner when he bagged his third Burgers’ Smokehouse turkey and donated it to fellow SUPRS racer Myles Maxon who had recently lost his grandmother. The race itself went green to checkered after an aborted start.

Last year, in another fast show, Joe Achzet ran away from the field to win the race that had just two cautions and took just over 14 minutes to run.

Warren, Becker Take Shot at Second

This year marks the sixth time the supermodifieds have visited Memphis and 2012 winner, Rob Warren, could join Ray Sand, Jr. and Dave Biro III in the multi-time winner club. If he does, it will make four SUPRS feature wins in a row and put him just one win away from having a bounty put on his head for the second time in three years. Carl Becker also has a shot at being a two-time Turkey Shoot winner with his first coming in 2014 at Tri-Park.

Set Your Alarms

Practice for the SUPRS 13th Annual Turkey Shoot at Memphis Motorsports Park begins at 8:15pm on November 14, 2017. The Fast 4 qualifiers take the first racing green flag of the night at 9:00pm in the six lap Turkey Trot. A Heat Race and the thrilling 40 lap feature on the big 3/4 mile Memphis macadam follows.
