February 18, 2020 \u2013 Louden, NH\u2026<\/strong><\/i> New Englander Dave “Speedyman” Ohh was able to hold off multiple challengers to claim both features in what was the triumphant return of supermodified and modified racing on the same card for the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), President\u2019s Day Special at New Hampshire International Speedway.<\/p>\n

Bob Gangwer and Keith Powell rounded out the top three in the supermodified 25 lap feature, while Henry Kelleher and Gangwer were second and third in the modified 75 lapper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just Hanging on in Supermodified Win<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

“It’s the home track, so this feels good,” said Ohh of Union, CT. “Thanks to SUPRS for having us HeatFinder.net and Mod Squad guys.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ohh then spoke of his struggles to hang on for the win in a race where he faced multiple attacks from the drivers behind him. “It’s not the way I wanted the race to go,” he began. “I had issues when I got into Rob, (Warren), early and hurt the car. I just tried to keep the car low, and it just wasn’t there.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The multi-time ARL Champion said that he felt he held up the drivers in second and third place. “I feel bad for Bob and Keith, I held them back,” said Ohh. “It’s not the way I want to win, I ruined their race and impeded their finish.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Major Crash Takes Warren Out<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

With a good jump on the start, defending Presidents’ Day Special supermodified feature winner, Rob Warren, found himself in the lead by turn two on lap one. Warren had a good race car under him and held the point, as Ohh and Powell battled each other while both working to unseat Warren from the top spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thrilling the viewers of the broadcast with side by side, inside, outside moves, the top three quickly caught lapped traffic just prior to the half-way point of the 25 lap feature. Just after Warren fought off a challenge from Powell, Ohh moved to second as Powell scrubbed the backstretch wall. The speeding trio shot out of turn four, as a major pack of lapped cars flew down the front stretch in front of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
