Supermodifieds History
Supermodifieds are a unique category of racing vehicles that originated in the United States, primarily evolving from traditional modified stock cars in the late 20th century. The concept emerged around the 1950s when racers began to modify their cars for better performance, incorporating more powerful engines and specialized chassis designs. The term 'supermodified' became widely recognized as these cars began to feature larger tires, lighter frames, and advanced aerodynamics, setting them apart from their modified counterparts. The first official supermodified races took place on dirt tracks in the Northeast, with Oswego Speedway in New York becoming a prominent venue for supermodified racing. Over the years, supermodifieds evolved into high-performance machines, capable of reaching speeds well over 140 mph on short oval tracks. The cars are known for their distinctive appearance, featuring wide tires, open wheels, and often flamboyant paint jobs. The supermodified racing community has cultivated a passionate following, leading to the establishment of various series and events across the country, including the Supermodified Racing Association (SMA) and the International Supermodified Association (ISMA). These organizations have helped to promote and organize races, enhancing the popularity of the sport and securing its place in American motorsports history.
