The racing world is mourning an immeasurable loss following the tragic passing of Jamison Gibson, President of North American Big Rig Racing (NABRR) and a respected, beloved figure within the American big rig racing community. Jamison’s untimely death has left fellow drivers, fans, family, and friends devastated, as they remember a man whose passion, talent, and infectious personality helped shape the sport he loved.
Drivers who had the privilege of sharing the track with Jamison describe him as a rare and remarkable competitor. Those who raced alongside him in Denver, Colorado recall not only his exceptional driving skills—skills that earned him the affectionate nickname “DK,” short for Drift King—but also his uplifting presence. Jamison had a way of lighting up the garage, easing nerves, building camaraderie, and making every race weekend feel like a gathering among brothers. He was admired for his precision, fearlessness, and mastery behind the wheel, but even more so for the kindness, humility, and joy he brought to the sport.
Beyond racing, Jamison was deeply committed to building and growing the vision of American Big Rig Racing. As president, he worked tirelessly to elevate the sport and create a welcoming, passionate community. His leadership, creativity, and dedication helped form a foundation that will carry on long after his passing.
Those closest to him are feeling the heaviest grief. Jamison was a loving husband to his wife, Loren, and the devoted father of his son, Jayce, whom he adored beyond measure. His family was his true pride, and he balanced the intensity of racing with the tenderness of a man who loved being a husband and father above all else.
The racing community is united in heartbreak as they honor Jamison’s extraordinary life and legacy. Fellow racers and supporters extend their deepest condolences to the Gibson family and to everyone at American Big Rig Racing. They ask for prayers and privacy for Loren, Jayce, and their extended family as they navigate this unimaginable loss.
Jamison Gibson will forever be remembered as a gifted driver, a visionary leader, and a man whose spirit elevated every person fortunate enough to know him. His absence leaves a void that can never be filled, but his impact will endure in every race, every memory, and every life he touched.
Rest in peace, Jamison. You will be missed by all.
