BUY TICKETS: See the races in Atlanta
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Tony Gibson was still grinning, a little worse for wear and tear perhaps, but still grinning when he arrived inside the Bill France Room of the Ticket and Tours building here at Daytona International Speedway Monday morning.
Make that early Monday morning.
Tired? A good tired. A winning tired. A little more than 12 hours earlier, Gibson, 52, had helped guide his driver to victory in the Daytona 500, the season-opening event for the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series. It’s the race in NASCAR and nothing puts an exclamation point on a racing career like saying you’ve won the Daytona 500.
Now Kurt Busch is finally a Daytona 500 champion. And Gibson, who has accomplished so much in NASCAR, is finally a Daytona 500 champion crew chief.
