After Year Away, SUPRS Wing Supermodified Mid-Season Championship Returns to Oswego Speedway

January 25, 2020 – Goshen, IN…After one year at Airborne Speedway, the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), Mid-Season Championship for winged supermodifieds returns to Oswego Speedway on January 28, 2020 for Twin 35 lap features that pay double points.

Oswego Speedway Home to Mid-Season Championship

Except for last year and from 2005-2009, the SUPRS Gold Crest Wing Mid-Season Championship has been run at Oswego Speedway.

For most of those years, including those when the race wasn’t run at Oswego, the event, has used a ‘twin’ feature format with two features on- one night, although for four years, the race had a 75 lap feature to close out the night.

Points Galore

This year, like most of the previous years, the driver that accumulates the most points from time-trials through both features is crowned the Gold Crest Wing Supermodified Mid-Season Champion.

Double Points for each feature have many drivers hoping to seize the opportunity to make a jump in the point standings, or gain a little cushion in the close contest among the current top five.

Other bonus point paying awards are available during the night including:

  • SUPRSCharger – both features (10 points paid to the driver that advances the most places from his starting spot)
  • SUPRSChallenge – both features (20 points paid to the driver that starts last and wins the race)
  •  DoubleDown (25 points paid any driver that can sweep the wins for both features)
  • Mid-Season Champion Bonus (15 points. Tally of all points throughout the night)
2019-20 Mid-Season Championship Format

Races Two and Three of ESS Tour

These two races are also part of the 2019-20 Empire State Super Series Regional Tour Championship which is composed of various races throughout the season at tracks in New York.

Back in December, Keith Powell won the opening round of the current Empire State Super Series when he narrowly beat Bob Gangwer on Blind Date Night at Diamond Speedway.

Powell Pushing

Of late, defending SUPRS Gold Crest Wing Supermodified Mid-Season Champion Keith Powell has sliced his way into, what was for most of the season, a comfortable point lead for Rob Warren. Warren, who has a chance to tie Ray Sand, Jr. for the most wins in this event, (Warren currently has three and is going for four), was socked with a two position penalty last week at the Buckeye 50 after a post race review and now sits just 23 points in front of Powell.

Powell, while being a consistent runner, has his work cut out for him because Warren has a big edge over all other current competitors when it comes to sitting in victory lane at Oswego Speedway. This will certainly be the battle to watch all night long as the two rivals try gather as many points as they can throughout the contest.

Mid-Season Times

With a full slate of action featuring time trials, heats, Twin 35 lap features and double points as well as bonus points for the driver crowned Mid-Season Champion, you won’t want to miss the intense thrills and action at Oswego Speedway on Tuesday, January 28, 2020.

Systems checks begin at 7:30pm, with the drivers hitting the track at 8:00pm for Hot Laps. Time Trials are at 8:30pm followed by Racing at 9:05pm using the rFactor sim racing platform.

Another Thriller Expected at SUPRS Buckeye 50

January 20, 2020 – Goshen, IN…If the last three editions of  the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), Buckeye 50 is any indication, supermodified sim racing fans are in for a thriller when the sanction visits Mansfield Motorsports Park f on January 21, 2020.

Down to the Checkers

Since 2017 when SUPRS made a triumphant return to Mansfield with the rFactor sim racing platform, every race has gone right down to the checkered flag. 2018 and 2019 in particular, were incredibly close finishes, and 2019 featured a last lap pass for the win and a spectacular crash at the finish line.

The race last year was the just the fourth time that SUPRS has competed at Mansfield, and all four times there’s been a different winner. However, two of those winners have figured into the finish all but one year. Keith Powell and Bob Gangwer each have a win in the Buckeye 50, and both have finished on the podium in three of the four SUPRS races at Mansfield.

From a team standpoint, it’s hard to argue the prowess of Disturbed Motorsports out of Mexico, NY. All three drivers, Chad Phelps, Derrick Backus, and Kyle Clark, have had moments of greatness at this bumpy high-banked half-mile.

Backus is the current track record holder and nearly won the race last year. Clark was in contention for the win in 2018. And Phelps, although he didn’t run last year, has led the race twice.

The 2019 Buckeye 50 had a wild finish.
