It is with a very heavy heart that I report that Terry Gibson was killed in a Super Modified heat race accident at Toledo Speedway last night.:crying::crying:

Sean,
I really hate to hear that. I got to know Terry and the other Gibsons when they raced the Winged Sprints on Asphalt at Columbus, Ohio. They raced with the Rumble Series at our race there in October of 2005. The Gibsons are a great group of people with a true passion for racing.
Blue collar guys with a love of speed and competition.
My thoughts and prayers are with the family -- Todd, Gene Lee, Jeff and Zach.

That's awful to hear. Prayers are with the family and friends right now.

It's been a rough year for racing...

Last night at Kil-Kare they announced it before the start of the winged sprint race, and that one of his relatives (sorry can't remember his name ) was running the race, I believed he ended up the winner.

Terry was the son of Todd and brother to Gene Lee and Larry. His nephew Zach won the race at Kil-Kare and finished 2nd at Columbus tonight.
