Keystone Nationals Three Night PA Swing

Share SUPRS:

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.

Billy Vukovich III Remembered with Supermodified Sim Race

Share SUPRS:

February 27, 2018 – Fresno, CA…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS) will honor the late Billy Vukovich III tonight with the 14th Annual running of the Billy Vukovich III Classic 100 at Mesa Marin Raceway presented by Supermodified Scorecard.

SUPRS 2018 Billy Vukovich III Classic posterLong-Time Sponsorship Continues

SUPRS co-founder John Davidson, of Sacramento, CA,  has sponsored this race since it’s inception through his Supermodified Scorecard business. His support is just as strong now as it ever was for a race that honors a fellow Californian.

“California-based Supermodified Scorecard continues to proudly sponsor the annual SUPRS sanctioned “Billy Vukovich III Classic” to recognize and honor his legacy and contribution to the supermodified division,” said Davidson.

Davidson himself is a three-time winner of the race and is one of four drivers to have won the prestigious event more than once.

About Billy Vukovich III

Billy Vukovich III was a three-time starter of Indianapolis 500 Mile Race, the first third generation racer to compete in the race and like his father and grandfather before him was named the Indianapolis 500 Mile Race Rookie of the Year.

While many in the mainstream motor sports arena will remember Billy III as a rising star of the IndyCar ranks, the supermodified community will always claim him as one of their own. Starting out just like Bill Vukovich and Bill Vukovich II, Billy got his start in midgets in his home state of California and was a champion in that division. He quickly moved through the ranks to the supermodifieds and competed for famed supermodified car builder Jim Belfiore before moving to larger, better funded teams in California’s Central Valley.

1987 Dominated by Vukovich III

During his supermodified tenure, Vukovich III claimed the 1986-87 USAC Supermodified Championship. In 1987 alone he won an incredible 12 of 17 races with a string of seven consecutive victories. He was also a two-time winner of the prestigious Copper World Classic at Phoenix International Raceway and was a threat to win when he competed at Madera Speedway in the Vernon Reitz “Spirit of Madera” machine.

Led Way to Return of Wings at Oswego

Vukovich III was also a part of the storied return of winged supermodified racing to Oswego Speedway, competing there in an exhibition race against Eddie Bellinger, Steve Gioia, Jr. and Bentley Warren. This event was the forerunner of the return of winged supermodified racing to Oswego Speedway with 1992 ISMA wing show and set the stage for ISMA’s 1992 East vs West series and ultimately the 1995 East vs West Shootout at Indianapolis Raceway Park.

Other Races and Events Celebrate Vukovich III

Vukovich III was killed at the age of 27 while practicing for a CRA pavement sprint car race at Mesa Marin Speedway on November 25, 1990.

Each year Madera Speedway runs the Vukovich Classic in honor of all three generations of the racing Vukovich family. There is an annual Billy Vukovich III golf tournament held to raise funds for the Billy Vukovich III Scholarship Fund for students of Billy’s high school Yosemite High School where there is also a memorial honoring the 1981 graduate who loved meteorology and amateur weather forecasting.

See the Race Live

For the first time in the history of the SUPRS Billy Vukovich III Classic fans can watch all 100 laps with streaming video via SUPRS LIVE! beginning at 9pm EST. Because it is a NASCAR Heat race, there will be no cautions making for a show that should take under 30 minutes to complete.

Race Schedule

Practice begins at 8:00pm with Time Trials 8:30pm. The Fast Car Dash follows at 8:45pm to set the top four starting places for 14th Annual Billy Vukovich III Classic presented by Supermodified Scorecard 100 lap feature which should take the green flag around 9:10pm.

Florida Speedweeks Champion to be Crowned after Five Nights of Sim Racing

Goshen, IN – February 3, 2018…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), for the SUPRS Florida Speedweeks, offering fans live streaming video of five nights of supermodified sim racing at five different tracks.

Variety is Spice of Speedweeks

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. This variation of track sizes, plus two different sim racing platforms always makes for great racing and unpredictable finishes each night. 

Never Predictable

With just time trials and a feature inverted by handicaps every night, the outcome is never predictable. The racing was nothing short of fantastic last year with two first-time SUPRS feature winners and a new Speedweeks champion. So it’s not unlikely that this year will be just as thrilling and may very well produce another new Speedweeks champ.

Five Nights of Action

Practice begins each night at 8pm. Time Trials will take place at 8:30 and the feature race is set to take the green flag at 9pm every night. The winner of the overall Florida Speedweeks Championship receives a five-pound bag of Florida Oranges.

Watch Speedweeks Live

Cheer on your favorite SUPRS racers while you view timing, scoring, and of course our outstanding live streaming video of all five nights of SUPRS Florida Speedweeks when we go “Live @ 9pm est via the SUPRS LIVE! page.
