The Ghost:

The Ghost is a custom-built race car housed in a 1936 Chevrolet Sedan body to look like one of the modifieds that Ray grew up watching race in the 1960s at short tracks in New Jersey but underneath it features state-of-the-art mechanics and electronics. It also has the aero performance of an Indy car and is powered by an 850 horsepower Chevrolet SB2 engine. Ray’s Ghost is the culmination of his 40-plus years of experience in auto racing. Along with his team, Ray wanted to design and build the car from the ground up the way they did in the 1970s and 1980s. No computers, no lasers, just using the knowledge they accumulated through the years. It’s called The Ghost due to the pearl white paint scheme.
