Ask the Motorhead

[SouthPawRacer]

I was rereading http://z7.invisionfree.com/thegangoffive/i...?showtopic=7112]this thread[/URL], and I have to ask: is Jimmy Gibbs Jr. a real stock car racer? I can't find information on him anywhere online. you seemed like the kind of person who might know that
 As far as I can tell, Jimmy Gibbs Jr. is not a real stock car driver. He seems made-up for the game, to act as an idol for the character of Ellis. Though, one would be forgiven for thinking that he is real... I mean, there are so many Jrs, Jimmys, Johnnys, Billys, Bobs and Billy-Bobs in NASCAR that Jimmy Gibbs sounds like a name you've heard before...

While the man is not real, his car is inspired by real ones. The car on exhibition appears to be a Dodge Charger fitted with the rear wing of a Plymouth Superbird. The Charger and Superbird were both successful stock cars, as far as I can remember.

What are your plans for the near future?

To be honest, I'm not sure. I'm studying art, physics, literature and mathematics this year, so there are heaps of opportunities. I want to either become a designer (of something to do with cars) or a writer of some sort, maybe a reporter or columnist.
