Goshen, IN – March 22, 2015…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series will be racing at the online version of Jack Arute’s Stafford Motor Speedway Tuesday March 24, 2015.

Visit our Schedule Page for more info.

This race is the 35th of the season and will mark the sixth straight year that SUPRS has raced at this venue since being completed by Doug “Flash” Forgue in December of 2009.

This particular race is one that Steve Callahan of Cayuhoga Falls, OH excels in, having won three of the five SUPRS races contested so far at Stafford Motor Speedway. He won the first two back to back then in 2014 won his third.

Callahan is embroiled in a very tight points battle with last week’s winner Rob Warren and while he worries about Warren, he still has a mathematical shot at taking the 2015-16 SUPRS Gold Crest Wing Championship if current point leader Myles Maxon falters.

Practice begins at 8:00pm Tuesday March 24 with the driver’s meeting to follow at 8:15pm. All of the drivers will be attempting to beat Myles Maxon’s one year old track record of 15.095 when they take to the track at 8:30pm for time-trials. Racing will begin with qualifying heats at 9:oopm

SUPRS Racers Looking for the Pot of Gold at Dover

With the points battle hotter than ever this season the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series drivers have a lot to lay on the line as they take on the “Monster Mile” at Dover International Raceway tonight for the St. Patrick’s Day Grab O’ the Green race.

Last year, after a seven-year absence, the race returned to where it started at Dover Downs and was won by Steve Callahan after he led all 25 laps of the feature. It also kicked off an amazing five race win streak for “Steady” Steve.

The speeds will be up and the nerves ragged as many of the SUPRS competitors battle the banks, the draft and each other on “The Monster Mile.” Last year Ray Sand, Jr. broke Bud Flath’s track record of 19.793 set on March 16, 2005, when he turned in a 18.992.

In the first three years of the race Dover Downs played host to the roaring winged supermodifieds with wins going to Kevin Marine, Randy Ritskes and Kris Heveron.

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 other than Phoenix and New Hampshire International Speedway The St. Patrick’s day event was then moved to Stafford Mountain Speedway and became 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 and run prior to the Billy Vukovich III Classic. Canadian Jamie Hartley was victorious in the one and only time the St. Patrick’s Day Grab O’ the Green was raced there.

For the next several years, SUPRS focused on a smaller schedule and the St. Patrick’s Day Grab O’ the Green was dropped due to fact that there were fewer races during the season.

Practice begins at 8pm and Time Trials will take place at 8:30pm. Racing for the supermodifieds will begin with heat races at 8:45pm and the feature will go off around 9:00pm. The Luck of the Leprechaun Modified 75 is tentatively scheduled to run after the completion of all supermodified racing.

Keystone Nationals Kicks Off Tonight

The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series will kick off the 10th Annual Keystone Nationals tonight at Harrisburg Speedway.

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 as they battle each other for the Keystone Nationals Championship and the valuable bonus points that go along with the crown.

2014 9th Annual Keystone Nationals Highlights

Harrisburg Speedway is a flat, fast and tricky half-mile that will quickly swallow up and spit out any racer that gets too close to the inside rail or let’s the car drift too wide off of the corners. After 50 feature laps here, there’s sure to be several drivers looking for new wheels.

On Tuesday night the racers will compete at RT 93 Raceway which is also a half-mile. Many SUPRS racers compare it to the legendary and now defunct Flemington Speedway and while being somewhat square-shaped, 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.

Finally, on Wednesday evening, the Keystone Nationals will culminate with the race that is one of the longest running in SUPRS history; The Randy Witkum Memorial. This 125 lap grind at the famed Jennerstown Speedway honors the late Randy Witkum, a supermodified racer that tragically lost his life while participating in an International Supermodified Association event at Jennerstown in 1999.

The winner of the Randy Witkum Memorial will become a guaranteed starter for the season ending Summit Classic 125.

Practice each night starts at 8:00pm with a full format of Time Trials, Heats, and Feature to follow.
