Grueling North Carolina Swing Next for SUPRS

Share SUPRS:

North Carolina Swing is Toughest Multi-Race Swing on the Schedule

October 28, 2016 – Goshen, IN…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS),  racers have begun to prepare themselves for the grueling 13th Annual North Carolina Swing which will take place from November 2-4 featuring five different tracks in three nights of racing all based in North Carolina.

As the racers vie for the coveted North Carolina Swing Championship Crown they will also be racing for points in the Gold Crest Wing Supermodified Championship and this year will be all the more challenging with a new venue and two sim racing platforms.

The series kicks off Tuesday, November 2 at Dasera Speedway and Caraway Speedway using the SUPRS W v6.0 mod for NASCAR Heat, then moves to Concord Motorsports Park, and for the first time, Southern National Motorspots Park on November 3 using the new SUPRS W v7.0 mod for rFactor.

Once the points are tallied from the first four races, invitations to the top eight, plus two alternates will be sent asking each to attend Hickory Motor Speedway on Friday, November 4 where the winner of challenging “Hickory Hustle 75″ will be crowned the 2016-17 North Carolina Swing Champion.

To date, there has been just one driver to win the North Carolina Swing Championship more than once. “Mighty” Myles Maxon. He first did it back to back in 2009 and 2010. Last year Ray Sand, Jr. and Bob Gangwer were looking to join Maxon as multi-time North Carolina Swing champions, but Rob Warren, after nearly sweeping night two for the third year in a row, held off both at the Hickory Hustle to claim his first NC Swing crown.

Steve Callahan has one of the best finishing records in the history of The Hickory Hustle, yet has never been able to win the race or the North Carolina Swing Championship. While work kept him out of the hunt last year, Callahan will be a driver to watch throughout the North Carolina Swing.

Callahan’s teammate Keith Powell is coming off his first SUPRS Championship after just narrowly edging out Rob Warren for the 2015 Gold Crest Non-Wing crown and has shown a lot of speed during pre-season testing, while Joe Achzet, Derrick Backus, 2015 NW Icings on Top Rookie of the Year Kyle Clark, Chad Phelps, Kevin Timmins, Dave Brigandi, Domenic Gioia, Joey Callahan, and others are looking to make it into the Hickory Hustle and etch their names on the list of first time North Carolina Swing champions.

The Hickory Hustle takes the top eight in points after the first four races and pits them against each other with a random start at Hickory Motor Speedway. It’s just one more reason the North Carolina Swing crown is one of the most sought after, and hardest to win, for the SUPRS drivers.

13th Year of SUPRS Supermodified Sim Racing Begins Where SUPRS Started

Goshen, IN October 11, 2016…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), will kick off it’s 13th season of supermodified sim racing with the running of the Harvest of Speed on October 18 at LaPorte Speedway.

As has been the case for the previous 12 years, the original online sim supermodified sim racing sanction will start it’s  2016-17 Gold Crest Wing Supermodified Sim Racing schedule at this fictional and tight 3/8th mile track located in Northern Indiana and will use the NASCAR Heat sim racing platform to do so.

To say winning a feature race at LaPorte is tough would be an understatement since the first Harvest of Speed was run in 2004, just five drivers have ever won it.

Defending SUPRS Gold Crest Wing Champion, Ray Sand, Jr., won the race last year and has a total of six feature wins at LaPorte including the 2011 and 2013 Harvest of Speed races.

Only Myles Maxon and John Davidson have more total wins at LaPorte and Maxon’s four Harvest of Speed victories at LaPorte make up the bulk of his seven total wins here . Three of those wins came in a row from 2007-2009. Davidson’s chalked up an incredible run of eight straight checkered flags at LaPorte from February 2005 to April 2006, with one of those being the very first Harvest of Speed.

Sean O’Kane (2006), Gary Waldron (2010), and Chris Meyers (2012) are the only other drivers to have won the Harvest of Speed. Steve Callahan, Jim Crannell, Josh Crannell, Doug Heveron, and Jesse Kennedy have also etched their names into the SUPRS record book as one-time LaPorte Speedway race winners, although none of them brought in the Harvest.

This year’s Harvest of Speed will again be a part of the Indyana Supermod Challenge, a multi-race, season-long mini-series that also includes races at Indianapolis Raceway Park.

With all the marks in the win column at LaPorte Speedway it should come as no surprise that Maxon and Sand, Jr. also have the most Indyana Supermod Challenge Championships with Maxon having six and Sand, Jr. three. Steve Callahan is the defending ISC Champion.

The overall Indyana Supermod Challenge Champion will be awarded 10 SUPRS Gold Crest Wing Championship points and receive a five-pound bag of  Yoder’s award-winning Indiana popcorn.

Practice for the 13th Annual Harvest of Speed begins at 8:00pm, with the Drivers Meeting taking place at 8:15. Time Trials follow at 8:30pm and racing is set to start at 9:00pm.
