October 19, 2019 – Goshen, IN…A new track has been added to the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), 16th Annual North Carolina Swing that takes place over the course of three nights on October 22-24, 2019. After a long run at Caraway Speedway, the series has decided to move to the high-banked 3/8 mile Orange County Speedway in Rougemont, NC for the second race of the swing on October 22.
“It’s always a tough decision to stop racing at a track that has a long history on our schedule,” said SUPRS co-founder Bob Gangwer. “The reality is, we just feel that Orange County can provide an even better racing environment for the drivers and the fans, and we are always looking at options that make for a better supermodified sim racing show.”
“On top of that, the real supermodifieds have raced at OCS, (Orange County Speedway), on a couple of occasions and we try very hard to showcase real tracks where the real division races at,” added Gangwer.
Other Tracks Remain Same
Beyond the change from Caraway to Orange County, the grueling run through “The Tarheel State” will have a familiar look for the other four races over the course of three nights from October 22-24, 2019. Dasera Speedway, Concord Motorsports Park, and Southern National Motorsports Park, which was added in 2016 and replaced Coastal Plains Speedway, are all a part of the North Carolina Swing tradition in 2019. And of course it wouldn’t be the North Carolina Swing without the crowning jewel of the five race spectacular; The Hickory Hustle at Hickory Motor Speedway.
The series kicks off Tuesday at Dasera Speedway as the first race of the swing and a 40 lap feature. The swing then moves to Orange County Speedway on the same night for another 40 lap feature.
Both races are part of the SUPRS/HeatFinder.net Supermodified Challenge and will use the SUPRS W v6.0 mod for NASCAR Heat.
rFactor Races Headline Second Night
On Wednesday, October 23, the series switches gears to the rFactor sim racing platform as it moves to Concord Motorsports Park, and Southern National Motorspots Park. Each race will have a 50 lap feature using the the SUPRS W v7.3 mod for rFactor.
Hickory Hustle Determines NC Swing Champ
The fifth and final race of the North Carolina Swing at Hickory Motor Speedway, is ultimately the most important because it’s the one that determine the 2019 NC Swing Champion.
The Hickory Hustle is the invite only, 75 lap, winner take all event. After the first four races, the North Carolina Swing points, (which are a total of a drivers feature finish points), are added up and the top eight are invited to the Hickory Hustle to vie for the North Carolina Swing Championship.
Adding to the intense challenge of winning the NC Swing Championship is the fact that those eight drivers will draw for their starting place for a completely random feature event line-up.
