James Goad aka “Reaper SS” was making an appearance at the North Florida Motorplex in Fountain, Florida. While he was making a test pass on Sunday evening, he crashed the new “Fancy” car into the wall. Thankfully no injuries were incurred.

Team Texas driver Eric Bains piloting “Boosted Ego” for the new season 5 of No Prep Kings had an unfortunate accident while testing yesterday afternoon. Bains shared that he did in fact crash into the Christmas tree at the track, right off the line. Check out the video below.   

Season five will feature a number of great storylines, including world-class new cars and engines from a number of competitors, the debut of JEGS family member Paige Coughlin to the tour, and Ryan Martin’s quest to three-peat as the series champion, to name a few. Credit via Andrew Wolf/ Dragzine.
