MOORESVILLE, N.C. – Tommy Baldwin Racing announced today that rising star Caleb Heady will return to the seat of the 7NY for the 2023 season. Heady will defend his 2022 SMART Modified Tour title down south, showcasing his talents in a diverse 14-race series schedule for the new year.
On top of competing on the SMART Modified Tour, Heady is also scheduled to begin the season in one of TBR’s Tour-Type Modifieds for the World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing at New Smyrna Speedway from February 13-17. Heady will also drive a TBR entry in the Race of Champions 73rd Annual Lucas Oil Race of Champions 250 at Lake Erie Speedway in September.
The group will also team together for Open Modified events during the 2023 season, with an exact schedule to be released at a later date.
“Caleb and our team clicked last year and we’re expecting similar results for the 2023 racing season,” Tommy Baldwin Jr. said. “The SMART Modified Tour has grown into a successful division down south – with a large variety of tracks – and they have a great schedule ready for the year. We’re excited to chase the championship again with them and also eager to get Caleb down to New Smyrna for the World Series against a stout driver lineup for even more Modified experience.”
Heady, who has quickly moved up the ladder in racing from Legends Cars to Modifieds, anticipates getting to the front of the field and contending for trophies.
“We’re super excited to be back with Tommy Baldwin Racing and be chasing a second SMART Modified Tour title this season,” Heady said. “I can’t wait to apply all that I learned during the 2022 season to this year. Being able to branch out and run more races with the team is exciting and we’re looking forward to it. I love learning new tracks and racing with the top competition in Modified racing in the country. I can’t wait to see what the season has in store for us.”
