GoFundMe Created For ARCA Hauler Driver's Funeral Expenses

MOORESVILLE, NC — There has been a GoFundMe established for the family of ARCA hauler driver Steven Stotts and for the medical bills of the two other people involved in a violent crash in Texas that claimed Stotts' life.

"I have created this GoFundMe to try and raise funds for his family to help cover funeral expenses as well as assist those injured with their medical bills," said Mark Hadley with Young's Motorsports who created the fundraiser.

Stotts drove the 17 hauler for DGR and was traveling to a race when his hauler transport vehicle failed to stop in time in Longview, Texas and struck another vehicle's trailer, according to preliminary reports from state troopers.

The hauler flipped over, killing him. The drivers of the two other vehicles involved went to the hospital and were treated for their injuries and released according to NASCAR NBC.

“We are deeply saddened to confirm the passing of Steven Stotts, co-driver for our No. 17 ARCA team transporter, that was involved in an accident early this morning near Longview, Texas. Our deepest sympathies go out to Steven’s family and friends," David Gilliland Racing stated Tuesday afternoon.
