5GTV - Kelly's GEMs and RPMs Presents Cindy Gibbs

5GTV - Kelly's GEMs and RPMs. Kelly Barr Anderson's Tale of a Burnout Queen.

Cindy Gibbs has been around the drag racing world literally her whole life. First and foremost a fan, she's been everything from a NHRA staff employee, a drag racing wife (or is that widow), a track operator and now a driving force behind the popular "NITRO REVIVAL" events, held yearly at nearby Irwindale Dragstrip.
Most know Cindy as the eldest daughter of Steve Gibbs, who's best recognized for his management of California race tracks, including the original Irwindale Raceway and Fremont Raceway, during the mid to late 60's. His subsequent 48 year career at NHRA and development of the successful California and National Hot Rod Reunions are what has earned Mr. Gibbs his "International Drag Racing Hall of Fame" status.
Luckily, the latest chapter in their lives has brought much enthusiasm for both of them and those who love and appreciate drag racing and its roots. Since 2017, Steve and Cindy have produced six NITRO REVIVAL events, with the seventh addition scheduled for November 8-9, 2024. Both are passionate about NR, which celebrates the rich history of So. Cal drag racing, showcasing the legendary cars and colorful individuals who paved the way for the sport we know today.
Cindy has always dreamed of one day working side by side with her father and now it's a reality; her passion for the sport and the people involved is evident as soon as you meet her. Take a listen and you'll see why she considers herself an "ambassador" to the spectacular sport of DRAG RACING.
