In the relatively niche world of drag racing, Jim and Pam stood out. While Jim clinched several national championships, he was most renowned for his vibrant personality, warm demeanor, and, of course, his stunning girlfriend.
”Our relationship was a flash in the pan, a bolt of lightning. I just worked,” Pam told Fox Sports.
But everything changed on September 9, 1977.
Jim dies
Just three days shy of his 32nd birthday, Jim was racing his 1972 yellow Corvette at 250 mph when he collided with a bus.
The legendary drag racer died instantly, and it took responders a heartbreaking 45 minutes to extract his body from the mangled wreckage.
”It was my mother called me and told me because she didn’t want me to hear it on the news,” Pam told CompetitionPlusTV.
The tragic accident sent shockwaves through the entire motorsports community. In the aftermath, Pam made the difficult decision to step back from drag racing, vowing never to work with another driver again.
Yet, she quietly dedicated herself to preserving Jim Liberman’s memory, frequently participated in memorial events honoring her late boyfriend.
