First SUPRS Race of New Decade is at Delaware Speedway in Ontario, Canada

January 4, 2020 – Goshen, IN…The first Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), race of the new decade is the 16th Annual Crazy Canuck Snowball Derby on January 7, and this year the event takes place at Delaware Speedway in Ontario.

SUPRS 2020 Crazy Canuck Snowball Derby is the first race of the new decade and the first time SUPRS will race at Delaware Speedway.

Wild and Wacky Format

The Crazy Canuck Snowball Derby has the craziest format of the wing season. The SUPRS racers have to time trial, run a heat, and try to qualify into a “Canadian Pursuit” all as they race against each other and as part of a two-man Snowball Derby Challenge team.

The Snowball Derby Challenge teams are set up right after time trials with the slowest driver from time-trials matching up with the fastest from time trials, the second fastest with the second slowest, and so on. Competing for points in every race of the night, each team member has to do his best for the team, but also be considerate of how his teammate is running.

At the end of the night, the two-man team with the most points between them wins the Snowball Derby Challenge Championship and each driver gets 10 bonus points added to his season championship tally.

Ready for Challenges of New Track

This aerial photo clearly shows how Delaware Speedway is wider at one end than the other.

Coming back from a nearly 20 day break to allow members to spend time with family and friends for the Christmas and New Year holidays, you can bet the SUPRS racers are ready to take on the challenge of Delaware Speedway for the first time.

After three chaotic Snowball Derby races at Mosport Speedway, the sanction has moved the race to Delaware Speedway with the goal of putting on a better event. Make no mistake though, while not as oddly shaped, or as narrow as Mosport, Delaware, which is shaped like an egg with a narrow tight corner at one end and a more sweeping corner at the other, will present it’s own set of challenges for the SUPRS competitors.

Part of the allure of the new venue is the fact that it’s the site of the very popular Harvy Lennox Memorial for the International Supermodified Association, (ISMA). This popular race at Delaware is one of only two stops in Canada for the popular supermodifieds and one that honors Canadian racer Harv Lennox. This year the race takes place on August 15.

Crazy Format

The Crazy Canuck Snowball Derby has the craziest format of the wing season. The SUPRS racers have to Time Trial, run a heat, qualify into a “Canadian Pursuit” as they race against each other and with a teammate.

The slowest driver from time-trials matches up with the fastest from time trials, the second fastest and the second slowest, and so on, to form the Snowball Derby Challenge teams.

Challenge Rewards Best Team Total

Each team member goes through the night trying to gain the most points possible . At the end of the night, the two-man team with the most combined points gets the overall Snowball Derby Challenge Championship bonus of 10 extra points to each driver.

Could Be a New Winner

Of the drivers sitting in the top five of the SUPRS 2017-18 Gold Crest Wing Supermodified Championship, only one, the current point leader, Rob Warren has won the Crazy Canuck Snowball Derby. Warren has the most feature wins this season so far, (five), and is hoping to win his third SUPRS feature in a row. With Jeff Weber being the only other active driver besides Warren that is a former winner of this race, it’s a distinct possibility that a new Crazy Canuck winner will emerge at the end of the night.
