Tommy Gray
will return in Undertaker for 2018
PITTSBORO, N.C. (April 19, 2018): Tommy Gray is synonymous
with his Undertaker persona. Always a fan favorite, he
epitomizes Pro Modified. Gray missed the PDRA season
opener, lacking an available car after selling his
graveyard-themed Corvette.
His new 2018 Corvette is being built by Jerry Bickel, but
won’t be done until August. Gray went into full attack
mode to find a backup. Fortunately, there was a good fit
to be found.
“The new car was supposed to be done last month, but now
it won’t be ready until August,” told Gray. “We sold the
old car to a guy in Alabama. I ran an ad the other week on
Facebook saying I needed a car. I had a few offers, but
they weren’t good cars. So the guy that bought my old car
called me and asked if I wanted to buy my car back. We had
to completely redo the whole thing, wiring and everything.
We got it done Friday night of the Northeast Outlaw Pro
Mod race.”
The previously-owned Corvette is now ready and Gray will
return to the PDRA schedule in time for his home stop on
the tour, the North-South Shootout at Maryland
International Raceway. Gray hints that there could be some
good news forthcoming for the team.
“We’re planning on running the rest of the series. We’re
hoping to get some backing. We’re talking to a partner
now, so hopefully that’ll work out and we can run the
whole series for a championship.”
