Ep. 116 | Jack Irving & Tyler Gibbs (Toyota Racing)

At one time, the Toyota Racing driver development program was one of the sport’s best-kept secrets. But today, it’s a program many young drivers would love to have attached to their name. Jack Irving and Tyler Gibbs, two integral people behind the scenes, are here to tell all. From correcting the misconceptions on how and why the program started to the complex way they go about scouting talent, and what it means when a driver is the program. What does Toyota do for them? Plus, a lot of fun tales from crisscrossing the country, and thoughts on the youngest drivers they’ve had in the program. Gibbs and Irving also share how the program has evolved over the years and why manufacturers should be involved in finding talent to climb the racing ladder. Music created by Tony Monge.
