About Todd Gibson

Lived 1936 – 2020 (aged 83). Todd Gibson was an American engineer and racing driver.

Todd Gibson (December 23, 1936 – December 1, 2020) was an American racing driver from Morral, Ohio, and Richwood, Ohio.

A champion short-track racer in Supermodified racing, Gibson made his USAC Championship Car debut in 1969 at the Milwaukee Mile. He competed in one other race that year and failed to qualify for two more. He was away from Championship Cars until 1976 when he returned to compete in eight races, mostly on the large speedways and finished 23rd in the national championship. In 1977, Gibson attempted to qualify for ten races and qualified for seven, the Indianapolis 500 being one of the races where he failed to make the field. Gibson registered his best Champ Car finish that year with a fourth-place finish at Mosport, his only road course start, backed up by sixth-place finishes at Texas and Trenton.
