Michael Wray Looking to rebound and challenge for 2018 Late Model Championship at Stafford Speedway

It's not very often that a driver like Tom Fearn can back up another  Late Model Championship after 18 years.

 

 

 

 

(Stafford Springs, CT)—For many racers, a season where they scored one win, ten top-5 and fifteen top-10 finishes to go along with a 7th place finish in the points standings would be considered a pretty good season.  But for Northford, CT native Michael Wray, driver of the #42 DMW Graphics Chevrolet, those season numbers registered as a disappointment.  Wray was coming off a 2016 season that saw him register two wins, fourteen top-5, and seventeen top-10 finishes, with ten of his fourteen top-5 finishes being podium finishes.  Wray is looking forward to getting back on the track in 2018 and returning to his 2016 ways.
