SUPRS Invades Canada for Crazy Canuck Snowball Derby

Share SUPRS:

First SUPRS Race of New Decade is at Delaware Speedway in Ontario, Canada

January 4, 2020 – Goshen, IN…The first Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), race of the new decade is the 16th Annual Crazy Canuck Snowball Derby on January 7, and this year the event takes place at Delaware Speedway in Ontario.

SUPRS 2020 Crazy Canuck Snowball Derby is the first race of the new decade and the first time SUPRS will race at Delaware Speedway.

Wild and Wacky Format

The Crazy Canuck Snowball Derby has the craziest format of the wing season. The SUPRS racers have to time trial, run a heat, and try to qualify into a “Canadian Pursuit” all as they race against each other and as part of a two-man Snowball Derby Challenge team.

The Snowball Derby Challenge teams are set up right after time trials with the slowest driver from time-trials matching up with the fastest from time trials, the second fastest with the second slowest, and so on. Competing for points in every race of the night, each team member has to do his best for the team, but also be considerate of how his teammate is running.

At the end of the night, the two-man team with the most points between them wins the Snowball Derby Challenge Championship and each driver gets 10 bonus points added to his season championship tally.

Ready for Challenges of New Track

This aerial photo clearly shows how Delaware Speedway is wider at one end than the other.

Coming back from a nearly 20 day break to allow members to spend time with family and friends for the Christmas and New Year holidays, you can bet the SUPRS racers are ready to take on the challenge of Delaware Speedway for the first time.

After three chaotic Snowball Derby races at Mosport Speedway, the sanction has moved the race to Delaware Speedway with the goal of putting on a better event. Make no mistake though, while not as oddly shaped, or as narrow as Mosport, Delaware, which is shaped like an egg with a narrow tight corner at one end and a more sweeping corner at the other, will present it’s own set of challenges for the SUPRS competitors.

Part of the allure of the new venue is the fact that it’s the site of the very popular Harvy Lennox Memorial for the International Supermodified Association, (ISMA). This popular race at Delaware is one of only two stops in Canada for the popular supermodifieds and one that honors Canadian racer Harv Lennox. This year the race takes place on August 15.

Watch the Snowballs Fly

SUPRS 16th Annual Crazy Canuck Snowball Derby takes place on January 7, 2020, at Delaware Speedway. Practice starts at 8:00 pm. Time Trials are at 8:30 pm, and Racing gets underway at 9:05 pm with the the first of two Heat Races.

The Canadian Pursuit follows the Heat Races with the 50 lap 16th Annual Crazy Canuck Snowball Derby feature capping the night at Delaware.

Last SUPRS Race of Decade is Christmas Special

Share SUPRS:

December 14, 2019 – Goshen, INThe last Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), race of the decade is the Sixteenth Christmas Special, and for the fourth time in as many years, the popular supermodified sim racing event is moving to a new track.

Pantucky is the Place

After holding a successful non-wing supermodified race at Pantucky Speedway back in July of this year, SUPRS officials booked this winged supermodified event. Pantucky is a flat, 3/8ths track with wide corners and narrow, drag strip-like straights. Like the non-wing race, the Christmas Special will also be an rFactor event.

Since that race in July, a lot of work has been done to the track that was originally built for NASCAR Heat. Some of the items include, a new Victory Lane, many new advertising billboards, a refurbished pit concession stand, new pit area scales and pit shack amenities.

One of the biggest projects was clearing the old train trestle that ran outside the track on the backstretch that seemed to run to nowhere, and adding water barrels and tire barriers to the infield light poles and all blunt-end walls, not to mention the moving of all safety vehicles to more secure and safe areas of the infield. Thanks to SUPRS member Nelson Rodrigues, the racers will compete on a track that is a lot more visually pleasing, more realistic, and has fewer hazards to contend with.

Christmas Gift for Winner

As has been the case since the beginning of the race in 2004, the driver that crosses the finish line first after 25 laps will take home a Burgers’ Smokehouse Christmas Ham for his accomplishment.

Burgers' Smokehouse ham
Burgers’ Smokehouse has specialized in Ozark Country Hams since 1952.

The fine folks at Burgers’ Ozark Country Hams have been providing simple traditions since 1952 when they built their first “ham house” on their farm in Missouri.

With complete attention to quality and customer service, this family owned company continues to do things the old-fashioned way taking great care in the time-honored traditions of curing, aging, and smoking superior quality products.

Last year Keith Powell broke Rob Warren’s four-year win streak at the Christmas Special, and was able to enjoy the delicious smoked ham with his family on Christmas. Powell was the 12th different winner in 15 previous contests.
