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.
