CARS Late Model Stock Tour
In 2017 and 2018, Gibbs competed in the CARS Late Model Stock series for Marlowe Racing. He finished 14th in the season points standings in 2017 (due to Gibbs only competing in 8 out of 13 races that year), and 8th in 2018. He has 2 pole positions, has led 90 laps, and has an average finish of 13.3, with a best finish of 2nd at Anderson Motor Speedway.
East Series
On September 21, 2019, Gibbs scored his first career win at the Apple Barrel 125 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.[1] He would compete full-time in the series, now known as the ARCA Menards Series East, the following year. He drove the No. 18 for Joe Gibbs Racing, who was fielding an entry in the series for the first time since 2012. Gibbs would win one of the series' six races on the schedule at Toledo Speedway in June and finish runner-up to Sam Mayer in the standings, who won all other races that year.
West Series
Gibbs made his debut in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West in the 2019 season-finale at ISM Raceway and went on to win the race. Joe Gibbs Racing fielded cars for him and his ARCA teammate Riley Herbst in this race, using owner points from both of Levin Racing's cars, with Herbst driving the No. 10 and Gibbs driving the No. 40. He returned to run the same race the following year, this time with JGR fielding their own No. 18 car with their own owner points.
ARCA Menards Series
Gibbs has won seven ARCA Menards Series races, at World Wide Technology Raceway at Gateway, Salem Speedway, Pocono Raceway, Kentucky Speedway, Iowa Speedway, and Winchester Speedway.
He finished fifth in the standings in 2020 after running a limited schedule.[2]
