First Time in WI for SUPRS

The 2020 St. Patrick’s Day Grab O’ the Green will be the first time SUPRS has contested a race in the state of WI. Although the sanction planned a race at the Milwaukee Mile in the early days of the sanction, the date fell through.

Works Well with Western Swing

While there may not have ever been a lot of supermodified racing in a state famous for turning out late model stock car legends like Joe Shear, Tom Reffner, Alan Kulwicki, Dick Trickle, and the Sauter family, to name a few, but it makes sense to run a show at Madison according to SUPRS co-founder Bob Gangwer. “For us, this year, after re-arranging the Western Swing, it just made sense to do something in Wisconsin,” said Gangwer. “I know it’s not a place where supermodifieds have run much, if at all, but sometimes, when the calendar aligns right, and it’s an chance to run a new track in a state that SUPRS has never run, and it’s a place where there is a great history that we can educate people in the sim racing community about, then we should try it out.”

Rock Mountain Raceways Carries on Real Supermodified Tradition

For many years the Salt Lake, UT and the surrounding areas were a hot bed of supermodified racing. That tradition continues each year at Rocky Mountain Raceways with the running of the prestigious Copper Cup Classic open competition supermodified race. Though, it’s unsure whether the real tradition will continue with the demise of RMR after the 2018 season, SUPRS hopes to keep the history of supermodified racing in the area alive with this sim race.

Racing at RMR “Makes Sense”

With an expanded “Winter Western Swing” for the 2017-18 Gold Crest wing Supermodified Championship, an event at Rocky Mountain Raceways in March not only fit the schedule, but according to SUPRS Co-Founder Bob Gangwer also helps fulfill the SUPRS Mission Statement.

“We always try to educate and inform current members and others in the sim racing world about the real supermodified division and this is a good way to remind everyone that RMR continues the Utah and to some degree the C.AM.R.A. supermodified tradition each year with the Copper Cup Classic,” he explained.

“The move to Rocky Mountain Raceways for this particular race only made sense considering the long, rich, and storied tradition of supermodified racing in Utah and fit into our schedule very nicely,” stated Gangwer.

St. Patrick’s Day Grab o’ the Green History

In the first three years of the race Dover Downs played host to the online supermodifieds with wins going to Kevin Marine, Randy Ritskes and Kris Heveron. Most of those races were 25 lap features, but on at least one occasion a 40 lap show was run.

Dover Dropped

For the 2007-08 and 2008-09 seasons, after a three-year run on the mile, SUPRS officials decided to move away from the longer tracks and the St. Patrick’s day event moved to Stafford Mountain Speedway as part of the Empire State Super Series races.  Bud Flath and Ray Sand, Jr. picked up the wins at the high-banked half-mile New York venue.

Continuing with a focus on short tracks, the race moved west of the Mississippi to Buckley Speedway in California. Canadian Jamie Hartley was victorious in the one and only time the St. Patrick’s Day Grab o’ the Green ran there.

From 2011-2013 SUPRS dropped the race simply due to a shorter schedule.

On Again Off again at Dover

When the race came back to the schedule in 2014 Dover was the site and Steve Callahan became the seventh different winner of the race. The race stayed at the famed Delaware speed plant in 2015 and Rob Warren turned in a stellar performance making a pass on the last lap to claim his first St. Pat’s Day win.

In 2016, the race moved to Mosport Speedway to take advantage of SUPRS rFactor based non-wing supermodified modification. Rookie Clinton Cyr of Florida won his first SUPRS career feature in a 50 lap feature that went 37 laps before the first caution flag flew. Joe Achzet and Ray Sand, Jr. finished on the podium the only time the race ran north of the US border.

Then last year, the race returned to Dover Downs, Joe Achzet became the tenth different winner after taking the lead from arch rival Rob Warren on lap 14 and driving the rest of the race unchallenged.
