Used to be Regular on Schedule

From 2005, to 2015, New River Valley Speedway was a regular haunt on the SUPRS schedule for the wing supermodifieds. Through those years, SUPRS staged at least one race a year at the Radford, VA 1/2 mile. Most of those races were the popular President’s Day Special which ranged in length from 38-75 laps.

Bud Flath, Jr. won the first SUPRS race contested at New River Valley Speedway in 2005 and Ray Sand, Jr. won the last SUPRS race at New River Valley in February of 2015. In between drivers like Myles Maxon, Chris Meyers, Chad Phelps also have at least one win there.

Callahan Has Most Wins at NRV

Steve Callahan of Cuyahoga Falls, OH, and SUPRS most recent winner at the Bluegrass 50 rFactor race, has the most wins at New River Valley. His tally of four victories at New River includes three in a row from 2012-2014. His first came in 2009 and only John Davidson, Ray Sand, Jr. and Dave Biro III, with two wins each, come close to “Steady” Steve’s record.

Old Dominion 50 is Part of NASCAR Heat Supermodified Challenge

The Old Dominion 50 is part of SUPRS 14 event NASCAR Heat Supermodified Challenge which is open to the public. At the first race of this special ‘season within a season,’ the 15th Annual Harvest of Speed, several first time supermodified sim racers made for a great show. It’s a safe assumption that these drivers, with their vast NASCAR Heat experience, will also be threats to win here as well.

President’s Day Special Kicks off SUPRS 3-Week Western Swing

Share SUPRS:

Goshen, IN – February 15, 2016….The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series,(SUPRS), will embark on their three-week “Winter Western Swing” when they strike up the band on February 16 to play “Hail to the Chief”  for the President’s Day Special.

The western adventure marks the first time the President’s Day Special will be run as a a rFactor race and will be contested for the first time other than New River Valley Speedway or New Hampshire International Speedway. The Bullring  at Las Vegas Motor Speedway will play host to the 75 lap feature and in another first, the racers will roll out their non-wing supermodifieds to go for the win in this popular race.

The very next night they will move to Madera Speedway, built in-house for SUPRS by resident track building guru, Doug “Flash” Forgue for the re-scheduled Veterans Day Special, which will also be contested using rFactor and non-wing sim racing supermodifieds.

It will be the first time the track will be used by SUPRS, and it’s release is still limited to the beta form. However, SUPRS officials believe that using the Veterans Day make-up feature will offer a good test bed for future use later in the season.

While there are a lot of unknowns heading into the two-day swing, one thing is for certain, it’s not the first time the venue or the format has been altered for the President’s Day Special .

The Presidents’ Day Special hasn’t been run every season during SUPRS 12 year history and it has varied in length from 38 to 75 laps. The race has been run at New Hampshire International Speedway as well as New River Valley Speedway.

John “Bud” Flath of New Jersey won the very first rendition of this popular race at New River Valley Speedway. From 2006 to 2009, New Hampshire International Speedway played host to the Presidents’ Day Special, then was not run from 2010 to 2013. Even so, SUPRS staged races at New River Valley including the popular Veterans’ Day Specials.

Practice for the President’s Day Special online sim supermodified race for rFactor starts at 8pm Tuesday, February 17. The non-wing sim supermodifieds will time trial, run a fast car dash, a heat and a 75 lap feature.

The next night at Madera Speedway, with time trials already having determined the feature line-up, drivers in attendance will get a 45 minute practice sessions starting at 8pm. The drivers meeting will follow at 8:45pm and the green flag will fly for the make-up 75 lap feature at 9pm. Any drivers that show and haven’t already been locked into the field will start the feature based on handicaps. Full format and details are on the SUPRS Schedule page.

The three-week western swing also includes the prestigious 12th Annual Billy Vukovich III Classic 100 at Mesa Marin Raceway presented by Supermodified Scorecard on February 23. This race will use the SUPRS NASCAR Heat wing supermodifieds.

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.

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.

Then on March 3, the SUPRS begin their trek back east when they roll into Phoenix International Raceway for the SUPRS Copper World Classic XII presented by Kern Motorsports. In what is sure to be one of the toughest runs of the season, drivers will have to excel in both wing and non-wing sim racing supermodifieds as well as both NASCAR Heat and rFactor.

25 lap features for each type of car will be used to determine an overall SUPRS Copper World Classic champion.
