Ty Gibbs

He started the season with a 4th-place finish at Daytona, followed by a win at Phoenix and a 27th-place finish at Talladega after being involved in a crash with Greg Van Alst.

He spent the season in a close points battle with Corey Heim and finished in the top five in every race except Talladega Superspeedway, where he crashed out of the top five and finished 27th.

On January 26, 2021, JGR announced that Gibbs would make his Xfinity Series debut in 2021 at the Daytona Road Course, which would be the first race of a part-time schedule he would run in the team's No. 54 car.

He shared the ride with Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin, Martin Truex Jr.., John Hunter Nemechek, and Ty Dillon.

On the Daytona Road Course, Gibbs held off Austin Cindric in overtime to win, becoming the sixth driver to win in their Xfinity debut (after Dale Earnhardt, Ricky Rudd, Joe Ruttman, Terry Labonte, and Kurt Busch) and the first to do so without prior experience in the NASCAR Cup Series.

He is also the only driver in the modern era (1972–present) to win their first NASCAR national series race.

He has 2 pole positions, has led 90 laps, and has an average finish of 13.3, with a best finish of 2nd at Anderson Motor Speedway.

Tyler Randal Gibbs (born October 4, 2002) is an American professional stock car racing driver.

He competes full-time in the NASCAR Cup Series, driving the No. 54 Toyota Camry XSE for Joe Gibbs Racing.

Gibbs was the 2022 NASCAR Xfinity Series champion and 2021 ARCA Menards Series champion.

He is the grandson of former NFL coach and NASCAR team owner Joe Gibbs.

Gibbs began racing in go-karts, on asphalt and dirt tracks in Mooresville, North Carolina.

He drove the No. 18 for Joe Gibbs Racing, which was fielding an entry in the series for the first time since 2012.

Gibbs would win one of the series' six races on the schedule (Toledo Speedway in June) and finish runner-up to Sam Mayer in the standings, who won all other races that year.

Gibbs led 104 laps at Dover in the General Tire 125 before crashing out late, marking his only DNF in the series and only finish outside the top four in any year.

He made four starts in the 2021 season, three of which were companion events with the main ARCA Menards Series.

Gibbs won the pole position and the race in all four starts, leading 621 of the 625 laps he completed.

As a result, he finished ninth in the standings.

At Kansas in May, he led every lap in the race en route to the win, the first time since Kevin Swindell in 2012 at Chicagoland Speedway that a driver in the series led all laps in a race.

Gibbs would later replicate this feat at Charlotte two races later and at the Milwaukee Mile in August.

Gibbs ended the 2021 season as champion, having won 10 out of 20 races.

In 2017 and 2018, Gibbs competed in the CARS Late Model Stock series for Marlowe Racing.

He finished 14th in the season points standings in 2017 (due to Gibbs only competing in 8 out of 13 races that year), and 8th in 2018.

In 2019, Gibbs won the IceBreaker 125 Late Model Stock race at Myrtle Beach Speedway, driving the No. 18 for Nelson Motorsports.

Gibbs ran a partial schedule in the 2019 NASCAR K&N Pro Series East, collecting four second-place finishes in five starts in the DGR-Crosley No. 17.

On September 21, Gibbs scored his first career win in his sixth start at the Apple Barrel 125 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in the No. 54.

He would compete full-time in the series, now known as the ARCA Menards Series East, the following year.

Gibbs made his debut in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West in the 2019 season-finale at ISM Raceway, going on to win the race.

Joe Gibbs Racing fielded cars for him and his ARCA teammate Riley Herbst in this race, using owner points from both of Levin Racing's cars, with Herbst driving the No. 10 and Gibbs driving the No. 40.

He returned to run the same race the following year, this time with JGR fielding their own No. 18 car with their owner points.

He led the most laps in the event but finished second after being passed by David Gilliland on the final lap.

In 2021, Gibbs ran both races at Phoenix, starting on the pole and winning both events.

The first event in March was a companion event with the main ARCA Menards Series, while the second race in November was the West Series season finale.

Gibbs led 124 of 150 laps in the March race and all 100 laps in the fall race.

In 2019, Gibbs ran 11 of 20 races in the ARCA Menards Series, finishing 13th in the standing after picking up wins at Gateway and Salem.

The next year he competed in 16 of 20 races and finished fifth in the standings, collecting wins at Gateway, Pocono, Kentucky, Iowa, Winchester, and Memphis.

He finished 19th in both the 2020 and 2021 standings.

Gibbs has won 18 ARCA Menards Series races and collected 38 top five finishes in a total of 47 starts.

Gibbs turned 18 on October 4, 2020, which made him eligible to race on all tracks on the ARCA schedule (including Daytona and Talladega).

In 2021, Gibbs ran full-time in the series in the JGR No. 18.
