Goshen, IN – November 28, 2016…The Wing Side Up Twin 25s for the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), is a double dip of daring challenges and thrills for supermodified sim racers willing to brave the big banks of Bristol Motor Speedway.

For the 13th year Bob Gangwer’s Wing Side Up on the World Wide Web will sponsor the night of supermodified sim racing action. This year marks the second season that the drivers will use their rFactor supermodifieds.

The event, which has heat race and two 25 lap features has become a favorite of SUPRS racers as they test their nerves and skill while turning sub-11 second laps on a track that leaves little margin for error.

With multiple bonuses like the  SUPRS Double Down, SUPRSChallenge, and SUPRSCharger, the Wing Side Up Twin 25s provide plenty of unpredictability and tension as drivers vie for valuable Gold Crest Wing Championship points. For the Double Down, a driver can double his feature finish points if he can win both features.

With the SUPRSChallenge, the driver that starts last in each feature can claim 20 bonus points if he can make it to the front to win. The SUPRSCharger award is good for 10 bonus points to the driver that advances the most places from his feature starting spot.

While all of those may seem somewhat easy, the Double Down has only been claimed twice and the SUPRSChallenge has never been claimed at this event. Doug Heveron and John Davidson are the only drivers to have won both features on the same night. Heveron doing it in 2007 and Davidson in 2012.

Adding to the challenge of racing at Bristol, the first race includes time trials and heat to set the feature starting field while the second feature is a complete inversion of the first feature’s finish.

The SUPRS racers are ready to double the action and double the fun on the big banks of Bristol Motor Speedway Tuesday November 29, 2016. Official practice starts at 8pm with the Driver’s Meeting at 8:30pm. The drivers will take to the track for Time Trials at 8:45 and the racing is set to go begin at 9pm.

Supermodified and online sim racing fans and friends can savor the action and view timing and scoring of every SUPRS rFactor race in an instant, including the 13th Annual Wing Side Up Twin 25s via the SUPRS LIVE! page.

You can learn more about this race on the SUPRS schedule page.  Regular season updates as well as real supermodified and sim racing news are popular features on the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series Facebook page and @SUPRSOnline.

November 12, 2016 – Goshen, IN…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), 12th Annual Turkey Shoot takes place this Tuesday November 15 at Memphis Motorsports Park.

SUPRS 2016 Turkey Shoot Poster

Grab a win and win a Turkey!

The winner of the race receives a Burgers’ Smokehouse turkey, delivered to the doorstep in time to enjoy it with the family for Thanksgiving dinner.

For the first three years of the Turkey Shoot it was held at the big 3/4 mile track and varied in length from 63-40 laps. John Davidson won the very first show in 2005 with Chris Meyers picking up one of his first SUPRS feature wins in 2006. Florida’s Kris Heveron was the winner in 2007 in a 17 car field.

Burgers' Smokehouse turkey

Nom, Nom, Nom thanks to Burgers’ Smokehouse!

2008 saw a move to Tri-Park Speedway where the race stayed for the next six years. Ray Sand, Jr. won that first Tri-Park show then did it again the next year to become the first back-to-back winner.

In 2010-11 Dave Biro III duplicated Sand, Jr.’s feat before Rob Warren took home the Burgers’ Smokehouse Turkey in 2012 and donated it to injured supermodified racer Jeff Russell.

Joey Callahan not only claimed his first Turkey Shoot in 2013 at Tri-Park, but  also won his first ever SUPRS feature. Carl Becker was the winner in 2014 and both drivers capitalized on their starting position which is set by the six lap Turkey Trot qualifying race for the Elite 8 of Time Trials.

Last year the race moved back to Memphis and used the SUPRS non-wing rFactor mod. After the start was called back, the 2015 race went green to checkered with great battles throughout. Ray Sand, Jr. won his third Burgers’ Smokehouse turkey and donated to fellow SUPRS racer Myles Maxon who had recently lost his grandmother.

Practice for the SUPRS 12th Annual Turkey Shoot at Memphis Motorsports Park begins at 8:00pm. The Fast 4 qualifiers will take the first racing green flag of the night at 9:00pm with the six lap Turkey Trot to set the first two rows of the 40 lap main event.
