Help SUPRS Help Jeff<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It is the goal of SUPRS to help people remember that Russell, a native of Boise, ID, continues to heal from injuries incurred during the last practice session for the Supermodified Racing Association, (SMRA), \u201dNight of Fire\u201d event at The Bullring in Las Vegas, NV on October 30, 2010.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeff continues to heal from Traumatic Brain Injury as well as other injuries, and since the accident, has endured multiple surgeries at great expense. Jeff\u2019s medical bills have been hard on his family, but you can help. During the race and from April 5 to April 12, 2020, all donations to the Dion Parish Memorial Benevolent Fund for Supermodifieds<\/a> will benefit the Jeff Russell Road to Recovery Fund.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ohh, Keysor Show Expected to Continue<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Brad Keysor and Dave Ohh have dominated the SUPRS Gold Crest Wing Supermodified Championship season so far, having won all but four of the 37 races completed so far. With Ohh as the two-time and defending Jeff Russell special winner, and Keysor having won half of the last six races, it’s expected that the Ohh Keysor show will continue at The Bullring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However the tight confines, amount of laps, lapped traffic, and abrasive surface of The Bullring, could all be the wild cards that keep these dueling desperadoes from sipping champagne from Victory Lane. Adding to those unknowns are the fact that high rollers like Keith Powell and Rob Warren, (whom himself is a former winner at The Bullring), are in a no holds barred battle with rookie Ryan Cloonan to be the best of the rest as they charge to the end of the championship points season, and will certainly show their hand by the end of the 85 lap main event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
