First Time Since 2009 for Double Header of Supermodifieds and Modifieds at New Hampshire Mile

Goshen, IN – February 14, 2020…Is it Washington’s Birthday? Is it Lincoln’s Birthday? Is it even a holiday? Whatever it is to you, on February 18, 2020 it’s a way for the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), and the NASCAR Heat sim racing community to honor the office of The President of the United States of America. And for the first time since 2009, the supermodifieds, and the mighty modifieds, will share a double dip of excitement on the mile at New Hampshire International Speedway.

NASCAR Heat Community Meets at NHIS

The NASCAR Heat community featuring the best drivers of The Mod Squad, HeatFinder, NHRL, and SUPRS will come together to race supermodifieds and modifieds in two separate NASCAR Heat sim racing shows on the same night at New Hampshire International Speedway.

Supermodified Format

The supermodified portion of the event will be contested with SUPRS NASCAR Heat wing supermodifieds, (SUPRS W v6). The supermods are the under-card and get their night started at 7:15pm with Hot Laps. Time Trials, and Heat Races lead up to the the 25 lap feature scheduled to the take the green flag at 8:10pm.

Modified Format

Following a quick break to switch race and voice servers, the TMS Super HEAT Modified Tour hits the track at 8:45pm for a quick five minute Hot Lap session. This is followed by Time Trials at 8:55pm, and the SUPRS TMS Presidents’ Day Modified 75 presented by HeatFinder feature at 9:05pm.

Presidents’ Day Facts

While the real meaning of the Presidents’ Day holiday is a bit murky, the facts are known about SUPRS Presidents’ Day Special, at least for the supermodifieds. The first edition was run in 2005 at New River Valley Speedway and was won by John “Bud” Flath of New Jersey. From 2006 to 2008, New Hampshire International Speedway played host to the Presidents’ Day Special, then was not run from 2009 to 2013.

SUPRS Weekly cover February 19, 2009 shows the last time the supermodifieds and modifieds ran on the same card at New Hampshire International Speedway.
Here’s the SUPRS Weekly cover from the last time the supermodifieds and the modifieds shared the Presidents’ Day Special billing at New Hampshire Int’l Speedway.

Since the return of the race in 2014, it’s been run back at New River Valley, The Bullring, and Buckley Speedway. The Presidents’ Day Special has used both the NASCAR Heat and rFactor sim racing platforms and has varied in length from 25 to 75 laps depending on what track was used.

On the modified side, the history of the race isn’t as readily available. What we do know is that Chris Heveron was the winner the last time the modifieds raced with the supermodifieds at NHIS. In a race that had 14 starters, Heveron led 113 of the 125 laps and won by thirteen seconds. Myles Maxon was third and Chris Meyers, the leader of the first 12 laps finished third. Six cars finished the race on the lead lap and it took 54:14.2. minutes to run.

January 31, 2020 – Goshen, IN…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), 2020 Florida Speedweeks for supermodified sim racing beings on February 3 and the week-long trek through the Sunshine State visits five tracks in five nights before crowning a Speedweeks Champion on Friday, February 7.

SUPRS 2020 Florida Speedweeks kicks off February 3 and runs through February 7.

Five Nights, Five Tracks

Featuring five tracks in five nights, SUPRS 2020 Florida Speedweeks has a little something for everyone.  Every track is completely different and the week includes tracks from a 1/3 mile inside a stadium to high-banked 3/4 mile and everything in between. These variations of track sizes, banking, surface and two different sim racing platforms always makes for great racing and unpredictable finishes each night. 

For the third year in a row, the schedule and tracks for Speedweeks stays the same and that consistency should lead to track records being broken as the drivers have honed their set ups over the last few years.

2019 Speedweeks One for the Record Books

Last year, in what mirrored the closest season championship points battle in SUPRS history, Rob Warren and Keith Powell found themselves tied in Florida Speedweeks points at the end of five nights. Powell, the perfect image of consistency throughout the week, was the defending Speedweeks Champion, and was looking for his third straight Speedweeks Championship, hoping to break his own record of being the only driver in SUPRS history to win the SUPRS Florida Speedweeks Championship back to back.

Warren was as hot as the Florida sun throughout the week and won three features, making him just the third driver in SUPRS history to accomplish that feat. Ultimately, that was what broke the 340 point tie between himself and Powell, allowing Warren to win his very first SUPRS Florida Speedweeks Championship.
