Keystone Nationals Three Night PA Swing

Goshen, IN – March 26, 2018… Last week the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), finished up their extended “Winter Western Swing” and are now ready to run the 13th Annual Keystone Nationals featuring the Randy Witkum Memorial beginning Tuesday March 27.

Three Distinct Tracks, Two Gaming Platforms

This multi-race swing through the state of Pennsylvania challenges the SUPRS racers over the course of three nights on three very distinctive race tracks, including a uniquely shaped one-mile track that has multiple elevation changes. For the second year in a row, the SUPRS members will be racing with the rFactor and NASCAR Heat platforms.

RT 93 Site of Keystone Nationals Opener

For the second year in a row, the first race is at RT 93 Raceway which is a half-mile, but certainly not an oval. Many SUPRS racers compare it to the legendary and now defunct Flemington Speedway and while being somewhat square, say that the fast way around is to run a near perfect circle. They’ll be doing that for 5o laps and trying not to get too dizzy.

Nazareth Presents Different Challenges

After a successful, and entertaining début for SUPRS last year, the popular Nazareth Speedway returns for night two of the Keystone Nationals and brings an added challenge. This one mile oddly shaped track has various elevation changes, a few distinctive bumps, banking that varies from 2.7° and 6.0°, and has what many consider one of the trickiest dog legs and turn one corners of the season.

Consistency and a smooth, fast approach through the dogleg is what drivers will be striving for if they want to be in Nazareth victory lane after 25 rFactor supermodified sim racing feature laps.

14th Annual Randy Witkum Memorial Closes Keystone

Finally, on Thursday evening, the Keystone Nationals will culminate with a race that is one of the longest running in SUPRS history; The Randy Witkum Memorial. It will be the 14th time SUPRS has run this 125 lap grind at the famed Jennerstown Speedway racing to honor the memory of the late Randy Witkum.

Witkum was a young supermodified racer, and part of an iconic supermodified racing family who tragically lost his life while participating in an International Supermodified Association heat race event at Jennerstown in 1999. The winner of the race gains a “Guaranteed Starter” award for the 14th Annual Summit Classic 125 in May.

All Three Nights Shown Live

For the first time in Keystone Nationals history all three nights of racing are going to be shown via SUPRS LIVE! Beginning with the first race at RT 93 through Nazareth on night two and the Randy Witkum Memorial fans can expect to see plenty of supermodified sim racing action. Featuring Live Timing, Scoring, Track Telemetry and Streaming Video, SUPRS LIVE! is the perfect page on the web to cheer on your favorite SUPRS racer.

Race Schedule

Practice begins at 8:15pm on the first two night. Then Heats, and Feature follow after 9:00pm. On Thursday, things get rolling a little sooner due to the length of the race. Practice starts at 7:45pm and the racing begins at 8:35pm with the Heat Races.

March 18, 2018 – Kansas City, MO…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), will race in Missouri for the first time in their 14 year history at the high-banked I-70 Speedway in Odessa for the “Show Me State 50” on March 20.

I-70 Once Famous, Now Abandoned

The track that originally opened in 1969 helped start the careers of many noted race car drivers including NASCAR stars Rusty Wallace and Clint Bowyer . Stand-0ut short-track racer Larry Phillips also called I-70 Speedway “home.” While mostly the seen of stock car racing, I-70 hosted USAC as well as other open-wheel series. For a short time the track was covered in dirt and the World of Outlaws sprinters raced there as well.

After a series of owners towards the end of it’s life, the track fell on hard times and eventually the doors closed for good in 2008 and today lays abandoned and overgrown.

Get a tour of the abandoned I-70 Speedway in this video from TheDrive.com. User Note-this video is PG rated.

SUPRS Brings the Racing Back to I-70

SUPRS brings their high-speed, radically offset virtual supermodifieds to I-70 for the first time ever on March 20 and early testing indicates that the racing is going to be nothing short of thrilling. High banks and uneven pavement will keep the drivers on their toes on every lap as each driver tries to ‘show’ the other the way to the checkered flag first.

Rocky Mountain Raceways Scene of 2018 Supermodified Sim Race

March, 10, 2018 – Dragon, UT…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), St. Patrick’s Day “Grab o’ the Green” winged supermodified sim race takes place on Tuesday March 13, 2018 and moves to Rocky Mountain Raceways for the first time. It is also the first time that this particular event has been held west of the Mississippi River since 2010.

Rock Mountain Raceways Carries on Real Supermodified Tradition

For many years the Salt Lake, UT and the surrounding areas were a hot bed of supermodified racing. That tradition continues each year at Rocky Mountain Raceways with the running of the prestigious Copper Cup Classic open competition supermodified race. Though, it’s unsure whether the real tradition will continue with the demise of RMR after the 2018 season, SUPRS hopes to keep the history of supermodified racing in the area alive with this sim race.

Racing at RMR “Makes Sense”

With an expanded “Winter Western Swing” for the 2017-18 Gold Crest wing Supermodified Championship, an event at Rocky Mountain Raceways in March not only fit the schedule, but according to SUPRS Co-Founder Bob Gangwer also helps fulfill the SUPRS Mission Statement.

“We always try to educate and inform current members and others in the sim racing world about the real supermodified division and this is a good way to remind everyone that RMR continues the Utah and to some degree the C.AM.R.A. supermodified tradition each year with the Copper Cup Classic,” he explained.

“The move to Rocky Mountain Raceways for this particular race only made sense considering the long, rich, and storied tradition of supermodified racing in Utah and fit into our schedule very nicely,” stated Gangwer.

St. Patrick’s Day Grab o’ the Green History

In the first three years of the race Dover Downs played host to the online supermodifieds with wins going to Kevin Marine, Randy Ritskes and Kris Heveron. Most of those races were 25 lap features, but on at least one occasion a 40 lap show was run.

Dover Dropped

For the 2007-08 and 2008-09 seasons, after a three-year run on the mile, SUPRS officials decided to move away from the longer tracks and the St. Patrick’s day event moved to Stafford Mountain Speedway as part of the Empire State Super Series races.  Bud Flath and Ray Sand, Jr. picked up the wins at the high-banked half-mile New York venue.

Continuing with a focus on short tracks, the race moved west of the Mississippi to Buckley Speedway in California. Canadian Jamie Hartley was victorious in the one and only time the St. Patrick’s Day Grab o’ the Green ran there.

From 2011-2013 SUPRS dropped the race simply due to a shorter schedule.

On Again Off again at Dover

When the race came back to the schedule in 2014 Dover was the site and Steve Callahan became the seventh different winner of the race. The race stayed at the famed Delaware speed plant in 2015 and Rob Warren turned in a stellar performance making a pass on the last lap to claim his first St. Pat’s Day win.

In 2016, the race moved to Mosport Speedway to take advantage of SUPRS rFactor based non-wing supermodified modification. Rookie Clinton Cyr of Florida won his first SUPRS career feature in a 50 lap feature that went 37 laps before the first caution flag flew. Joe Achzet and Ray Sand, Jr. finished on the podium the only time the race ran north of the US border.

Then last year, the race returned to Dover Downs, Joe Achzet became the tenth different winner after taking the lead from arch rival Rob Warren on lap 14 and driving the rest of the race unchallenged.

Follow the Action Live

The SUPRS St. Patrick’s Day Grab o’ the Green rfactor supermodified sim race at Rocky Mountain Raceways is  a fan friendly affair. With all the Heat Race and 50 lap feature being broadcast on SUPRS LIVE! beginning at 9:00pm est, friends can see all the action and keep track of stats, track telemetry and official scoring and timing charts.

March 4, 2018 – Carson City, NV…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), is set to make an appearance at The Bullring in Las Vegas for the Jeff Russell Special this Tuesday to help raise awareness for the namesake of the race, who continues to recover from injuries in a 2010 supermodified crash at this track.

Making People Aware

The Jeff Russell Special is part of SUPRS Winter Western Swing. It is the goal of SUPRS to help people remember that Russell, a native of Boise, ID,  continues to heal from injuries incurred during the last practice session for the Supermodified Racing Association, (SMRA)”Night of Fire” event at The Bullring in Las Vegas, NV on October 30, 2010.

Jeff continues to recover from Traumatic Brain Injury and has fought hard to learn how to walk, talk, and function normally since his accident. His battle is not over, and probably never will be, but with his dogged determination and the never-ending support of his family, he has come further than many ever believed he could.

Donate During the Race to Help Jeff

The nearly eight year years of medical bills have been hard on his family, but you can help. During the race and from March 6 to March 13, 2018, all donations to the Dion Parish Memorial Benevolent Fund for Supermodifieds are going to be sent to the Jeff Russell Road to Recovery Fund.
