What other personal details do we know about Jerry Bird?

In an interview with Dragzine in 2018, Jerry gave context into his early life and how it helped shape the racer that he has become today. Hailing from Louisiana, Jerry is familiar with the Bayou area and has made it his playground his entire life. "We just like to race," he told the publication. "I mean we race everything, we race boats, and bikes, cars, duallies, whatever. …We try to be fastest in anything we got out here!"

It was Darryl who sparked Jerry's interest in drag racing to begin with. While Jerry was cutting his chops working as a motorcycle builder and general automotive repairman, Darryl was getting his feet wet in the local racing scene. Eventually, his brother's hobby wore off on him, and Jerry also took up an interest in the sport. When that happened, his repair and building business shifted from bikes to cars.

Now famous for drag racing their heavily modified 1990 Ford Probe, Jerry and Darryl took what was at first a hobby and translated it into a sustained business model and reality television fame, while still keeping it fun the whole way.

"We have fun — I have a good time doing this … I’m really having fun at this point in my life. My wife, my brother, my son, everybody goes and we have a good time, man!" he told the outlet.

It's clear that no matter what challenge is thrown at the duo, whether it be technical or problems on the drag strip, their wealth of knowledge on all things automotive will help them navigate it. As one of the current winningest teams on their show, that notion has been proven time and time again.
