Arthur Gibson

Darlington, County Durham

141 (1966-1972)

Some meeting reports in 1966 editions of Stock Car Racing News mention Tom Ward in the places that the offical results have Arthur Gibson. Tom Ward raced Midgets / Super Cars at Aycliffe, and possibly he also raced stock cars before Aycliffe joined BriSCA in 1966. Tom Ward was never a registered BriSCA F1 driver, so why his name appears in SCRN meeting reports is a mystery. Maybe he borrowed Arthur Gibson's car and licence for a few meetings and pretended to be Arthur, or maybe he was in fact the same person as Arthur Gibson, and either Tom Ward or Arthur Gibson is an assumed name. It's also possible that SCRN got the names mixed up!
