SUPRS 12th Annual Terry Gibson Memorial Honors Memory of Fallen Racer

January 12, 2019 - Goshen, IN...The Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series, (SUPRS), is proud to present the 12th Annual Terry Gibson Memorial this week. Featuring two nights of NASCAR Heat supermodified sim racing, this event honors the memory of the late Terry Gibson. This race is one of the most anticipated events of the season and will take place over the course of two nights on January 14 & 15, at the online version of Sandusky Speedway.

Paying Tribute to Terry Gibson

SUPRS Terry Gibson Memorial honors the memory of the late Terry Gibson who lost his life during a heat race for the Midwest Supermodified Association at Toledo Speedway on July 18, 2008. Gibson was competing in his own car, when he climbed a wheel and hit the first turn wall.

Terry Gibson was the son of Oswego and Sandusky Speedway track champion, and USAC and IndyCar competitor, Todd Gibson. He was known for doing more with less while enjoying racing against his brothers Gene Lee, Larry, and Jeff.

Terry is survived by his wife Linda, son, Ryan W. Gibson; a daughter, Lindsay N. Kincaid; his father Todd Gibson, two brothers, Gene Lee (Lucinda) Gibson, Sandusky; Larry (Lisa) Gibson, Marysville; and a sister, Deb (Randy McElroy) Brady, Richwood. Terry was followed in death by his brother Jeff (Shannon) Gibson in 2012, and mother Brenda in 2018.

Two Nights of Supermodified Sim Racing Action

Everything kicks off at 8:30pm Tuesday, January 14 with practice for the Terry Gibson Fast 50. There are no time trials for this race with the drivers having to run qualifying heat races to advance to the feature. Many of the drivers use this race as a tune up for the next night and the winner of the 50 lap main event becomes a guaranteed starter for the Terry Gibson Memorial 100.
