July 27, 2020 – Goshen, IN…After a week away for summer break, The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), returns to racing Tuesday and Wednesday, July 28, 29 with the 13th Annual Mr. Online Supermodified sim racing spectacular.

Speed, Consistency, Tenacity Key
The 13th Annual Mr. Online Supermodified rewards a driver’s skills and tenacity using two types of sim racing games and two types of supermodifieds. Drivers will need to be faster than a speeding bullet as they compete in their winged rFactor supermodifieds on Tuesday, and switch to their non-wing supermods on Wednesday.
But speed isn’t the only key to overpowering their foes. Over the course of the two nights, a running tally of points will be kept for from time trials, heat races, and the two 50 lap feature races. A driver will need to be consistent, and fast throughout the two-day event if he wants to claim the coveted 13th Annual Mr. Online Supermodified Cup sponsored by 1st to Finish Race Servers.
Be a part of the worldwide audience for the 13th Annual Mr. Online Supermodified race with SUPRS LIVE! Follow your favorite SUPRS Hero all night long with live video, track telemetry and scoring and timing.
For fans that have a Twitch.tv account, the SUPRS Chat is a great place to make new friends, talk sim racing, or real supermodified racing and enjoy the broadcast all on one page. Join the crowd when SUPRS goes “LIVE @ 9” each night with the broadcast.

Double Header of NASCAR Heat & rFactor to Celebrate America’s Birthday
June 26, 2020 – Goshen, IN…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), drivers return to action June 30, 2020 at Oswego Speedway and will celebrate America’s birthday a few days early with the running of the popular “Independence Day Twin 35s.” Action from the NASCAR Heat and rFactor non-wing supermodified sim racing double-header is scheduled to be carried live on the SUPRS Broadcasting Network beginning at 9pm ET.

Oldest Race on Non-Wing Schedule
Not only will SUPRS celebrate freedom and Independence Day, they’ll also celebrate the anniversary of SUPRS very first points race for the SUPRS Gold Crest Non-Wing Supermodified Championship which came on July 6, 2005. The debut of the non-wing supermodifieds for sim racing across the world came with the running of the Independence Day Twin 25s at Jennerstown Speedway. Californian and future SUPRS Champion, John Davidson, and Canadian Sean Gibbs won those races.
Since then, the event has been held at Jennerstown Speedway three other times, including a special 15th Anniversary Edition last year. Beginning in 2008 the race moved to the newly designed Oswego Speedway and has been held there each time the event has been run except for 2011 when Bristol Motor Speedway hosted the show, last year when Richmond Int’l Raceway hosted the second race, and 2012 and 2015 when the event was not held.
Slight Twist to Old Event
The 2020 version of SUPRS Independence Day Twin 35s features a slight twist to the ageless event. After successfully using both NASCAR Heat and rFactor, (albeit at two different tracks), in 2019, this year’s event will do so for the first time at the same track.
The added dimension of having to master two different sim racing games should prove to make the evening that much harder to master, and provide fans with more storylines to enjoy during the live broadcast.
Tough to Sweep Both Features
Because of the format and the short race distance, sweeping both features for the night has been very uncommon. Just three drivers have accomplished the tall order, and only one has done it more than once.
Kris Heveron was the first to pull off the sweep when he won both 45 lap features at Jennerstown in 2008. It took eight years before it would happen again and it was a surprise to everyone when Chad Phelps, who had never won a SUPRS feature in six years of trying, won both 35 laps features the first time the event was contested using rFactor at Oswego Speedway.
Chad Phelps held off Rob Warren in the second feature to make for a sweep of the 2016 Independence Day Twins.
Then, the very next year, Rob Warren, after starting fourth in the first 35 and sixth in the second, joined Heveron and Phelps in that rare club of drivers that have swept both races of the Independence Day Twins. In fact, last year Warren surpassed Heveron on the Independence Day Twins All-Time Win List when he won his fifth overall.
Other Former Winners Expected
Joining Warren as former winners of at least one of the Independence Day Twins are Steve Callahan, Gary Waldron, and Keith Powell, all of whom are expected to compete on June 30.
“Steady” Steve held off “Mighty” Myles Maxon to win his second overall Independence Day Twin 35 in 2013 at Oswego Speedway.
Callahan has two total Independence Day wins, both coming at Oswego Speedway, and both using the NASCAR Heat platform. Callhan’s first win was in 2010 in the second feature and his second came in 2013, also in the second.
Waldron, who’s had an up and down season so far this summer, but has finished as high as third, won the second 40 lap feature at Jennerstown Speedway in 2006.
Keith Powell is the only driver to keep Rob Warren from completing an Independence Day Twins sweep three years in a row.
Meanwhile, Powell, who is enduring the worst season of his career, finishing just one of the previous four SUPRS features, is the driver that kept Rob Warren having three Independence Day sweeps. Powell won the first feature in 2018.
