Gibson open wheel racer Todd Gibson avoids injuries after Lorain County crash
In a dramatic Friday feature at Lorain County Speedway Todd Gibson flipped his roadster after colliding with Elyrian Ron Hewes. The Richwood driver escaped unhurt though his car suffered major damage including four wheels and tires, a bent axle and several components. He aimed to have the car ready for Sandusky races within 24 hours, driven by a strong local support and a $300 bounty on Gibson at Sandusky tracks to end the season.
