Independence Day Twins Keeps Celebration Going for Extra Day

July 1, 2016 – Goshen, IN…The Supermodified Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), will celebrate America’s Birthday party one extra day with the running of the Independence Day Twin 35s on July 5 at Oswego Speedway.

The Independence Day Twins event is the oldest on the SUPRS Gold Crest Non-Wing Championship calendar and returns after year hiatus. This year’s show also makes for the second week in a row that the SUPRS competitors will be running the double feature format.

The very first points race for the SUPRS Gold Crest Non-Wing Supermodified Championship came on July 6, 2005 with the running of the Independence Day Twin 25s at Jennerstown Speedway. Californian John Davidson and Canadian Sean Gibbs won those races.

Since then, the event has been held at Jennerstown Speedway two other times. Beginning in 2008 the race moved to the newly designed Oswego Speedway and has been held there since except for 2011 when it ran at Bristol Motor Speedway and 2012 and 2015 when the event was not held.

While the format has changed from Twin 25 lap features the first year to Twin 40s and even Twin 45 lappers, since 2010 the supermodified sim racers have battled each other in Twin 35 lap contests. However, this year will be the first time the Independence Day Twins will use the rFactor platform. All previous renditions have used NASCAR Heat.

In the history of the race, no driver has more wins than 2-time Gold Crest Non-Wing Champion Kris Heveron. Heveron won at least one of the Twin features starting in 2006. He then swept the 2007 event which featured twin 45 lap races,  and won the second feature in 2008 for an impressive three-year run of four total wins. Heveron remains the only driver in SUPRS history to sweep the two features. No driver has ever had a perfect night of winning his heat and both features.

Other winners include Gary Waldron (2006), Dave Soja (2008), Devin Gee and Dave Biro III (2009), Steve Callahan and Domenic Gioia (2010), Dave Biro III and Dave Soja (2011), and Domenic Gioia and Steve Callahan again in 2013, and Myles Maxon and Chris Meyers in 2014.

After a year off, the Independence Day Twin 35s return to Oswego Speedway on July 5 and will again feature a unique and interesting format based on the points won handicap system. As has been the long-standing tradition of the Independence Day Twins, a SUPRSCharger award and SUPRSChallenge bonus award available for each 35 lap feature.

This event has always been an important one for the SUPRS racers because of the points available and with just 33 points separating the top four in the Championship standings, fans can bet that this edition will be no different.

Current Gold Crest Non-Wing Supermodified Champion Rob Warren has won two races this year and for two weeks in a row was on his way to standing on the top spot again when disaster struck. Crashing in two out of three features run, he has taken a huge hit in the points and dropped to third overall.

The big mover up the points ladder was Steve Callahan. Callahan won the second

Steve Callahan held off a hard charging Myles Maxon in the second Twin 35 at Oswego Speedway in 2013.

Mid-Season Championship Twin 35 last week which helped him claim the overall Mid-Season Championship and the ten bonus points that go with it, catapulting him three places from fourth overall to the top of the heap and P1. Callahan has done well in the past having won a feature in 2010, 2013.

Callahan’s teammate, Keith Powell, is yet to claim a feature win, but with two third places finishes last week, has positioned himself in second overall in the Gold Crest Non-Wing Championship and sits just eight points behind his CPR Motorsports partner, Callahan.

Fourth place in points is Bob Gangwer. Like Powell, he hasn’t won a feature, but has finished second in half of the races run and until last week, was in the top three in points.

Three time Gold Crest Non-Wing Champion Ray Sand, Jr., after winning a feature for the second week in a row last Tuesday, has finally cracked the top five in the point standings after several DNF earlier in the season. His constant struggle with an aging gaming rig leaves many unknowns surrounding his chances of having a good run this week.
