Goshen, IN – December 14, 2014…The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series will end the year with the 11th Annual Christmas Special 25 at Bracket Hill Raceway in New Hampshire this Tuesday night.

This race is the last show before a two week break in the action to allow all members a chance to spend time with their families during the holiday break.

In the 11 year history of the race there has never been a repeat winner and there’s a good chance that 2014 will carry on the tradition as Myles Maxon has dominated the season thus far and has a large points lead.

However, 2008 Christmas Special winner Ray Sand, Jr. has returned to action of late and hasn’t seemed to have lost anything in the time off. Sand, Jr. is the current Track Record holder at Bracket Hill Raceway and set fast time and fastest lap of the race at the Dion Parish Memorial 62 last week at Rander Speedway.

The winner of that race, “Crazy” Chris Meyers could be the driver to watch as he’s run well so far in the month of December.  Former winners Steve Callahan and Bob Gangwer are expected to compete, while defending race winner Gary Waldron has yet to be seen on the track in the 2014-2015 Gold Crest Wing Championship Season.

The Christmas Special will feature a full format including time trials, Fast 4 Reindeer Dash and Heat Races, then conclude with the short 25 lap sprint to the checkered flag in the feature race at Bracket Hill Raceway*.

As in years past, the winner of the race will receive a Christmas Ham shipped to their home from Burgers’ Smokehouse just in time for Christmas dinner.

Steve Callahan Wins First Wing Side Up Twin at Bristol, Myles Maxon Brings Home Second Twin

Steve Callahan had always been close but had never before won a wing supermodified race at Bristol Motor Speedway. He changed that statistic Monday night when he lead all 25 laps of the first feature of the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series Wing Side Up Twin 25s. Myles Maxon became a 3-time winner at Bristol when he passed Bob Gangwer with seven laps to go in the second 25 lap feature and went on to win.

“I got lucky with the draw but it wasn’t easy holding off Myles and Bob at this place, I’m real happy to finally bring one of these races home,” said Callahan.

Maxon pressured Callahan for the full 25 laps with Gangwer close in tow. The top three were rarely separated by more than the width of a nerf bar in the race that took just 5 minutes to complete. The podium ended up the way it started with Callahan, Maxon, and Gangwer finishing in that order.

In the second race of the night which featured a random start, Bob Gangwer took off from the pole position and worked to hold off Myles Maxon but succumbed to the wily ways of the point leader on lap 18 when he slipped up the track just enough to allow Maxon to go by.

“I wasn’t sure really if I had anything for Bob, I was probably faster, but he was running a perfect line and he just made that one slip and it was at the right place where I could get under him,” stated Maxon.

Gangwer held onto second at the line, while Rob Warren charged from sixth to third and received the SUPRSCharger bonus for most positions advanced.

SUPRS will be back in action on December 9, 2014 with the 11th Annual Dion Parish Memorial held at Rander Raceway where they will honor the memory of the late Dion Parish, a Michigan native that lost his life in a supermodified practice session at Kalamazoo Speedway in 2002. Practice begins at 8:00pm, Time Trials are at 8:45pm and Racing gets underway at 9:00pm.
