Daytona Countdown: 5 - Bobby Gerhart
"Bobby Gerhart's career in the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards dates back into the 1980s. The Lebanon, Pennsylvania, dirt track specialist made the move to racing heavy, full-bodied stock cars on paved tracks and eventually became known as one of the preeminent superspeedway drivers in series history.
Gerhart and brother Billy, who owns the No. 5 Chevrolet that Gerhart has driven throughout his career, have been inseparable over the course of their 30-plus year careers. Bobby has maintained the driving duties, while Billy has handled the mechanical aspects of the car and has served as crew chief."
