A 25-year-old car racer influencer, 1Stockf30, lost his life in a crash while racing on the streets.
The accident occurred on 5th November when his 2024 BMW X5 collided with an Acura on a parkway in Queens, New York, with a crowd witnessing the tragedy.
Highlights
- The footage showed 1Stockf30’s BMW speeding off, but smoke poured from the car moments later.
- A Twitter user suggested that the engine malfunctioned at the end of the quarter-mile, causing the tires to lose grip on oil or coolant.
- The forum suggested that he may not have been wearing a seatbelt, as it appeared he was ejected from the vehicle.
His passenger, a 21-year-old, was hurt but survived the crash, according to the New York Police Department.
Similarly, the driver of the Acura wasn’t injured and stayed at the scene after the collision.
Originally from the Bronx, Andre Beadle, aka 1Stockf30, earned hundreds of thousands of followers by posting videos of himself speeding in his purple BMW.
Through his brand, 1stockf30, Beadle created a community of car enthusiasts who focussed on building custom-tuned cars and breaking records, both on the track and on the streets.
His team participated in races across the U.S., with a strong presence in the New York area.

The video then cut to the wreck, with debris scattered and the car having crashed into a light post after losing control.
Beadle was ejected from the vehicle and found by first responders.
One user on X, formerly known as Twitter, suggested that the engine malfunctioned at the end of the quarter-mile, causing the tires to lose grip on oil or coolant.
This loss of control reportedly led the rear of the car to crash into a bridge, causing the back half of the vehicle to separate.
The user also claimed that Beadle’s body was found several feet away from the wreckage.

Rest in peace 1stockf30 bro. According to friends his motor blew in the end of the quarter and tires slipped on oil/coolant causing the rear end to slam into a bridge. The rear half dislocated entirely from the rest of the vehicle. His body was found several feet from the scene
The forum also mentioned that 1Stock was racing a Trackhawk when he lost control and crashed into a wall in the Bronx.
The post suggested that he may not have been wearing a seatbelt, as it appeared he was ejected from the vehicle.
1Stock was racing a Trackhawk and lost control and struck a wall in the Bronx. Guessing he was not wearing his seatbelt cause it appears he was ejected….RIP

On the other hand, another user argued that the crash wasn’t caused by engine failure but by hitting a “random puddle” in the road.
They argued that, in this case, the seatbelt probably wouldn’t have made a difference.
Others replied, saying it wasn’t surprising, given that the car could run for nearly seven seconds but had no safety equipment installed.
Only in June was Beadle involved in a high-speed crash while driving his heavily tuned G42-gen M240i at 170 mph on a racetrack.
He sustained chest and back injuries that required hospitalization, but despite this, he stayed dedicated to racing and kept his followers updated on his journey.
The day before the crash, Beadle uploaded a video titled “I’M BRINGING THE M240 BACK TO THE STREETS + TRACKHAWK VS 1STOCK CORVETTE $10,000 RACE.”
Similarly, in his final Instagram post, which now feels eerie, Beadle shared a photo of his car with the caption,
“The streets say they miss me!”
