Travis Crabtree

Travis Crabtree (born 3rd August, 1996) is an American racing driver. He previously competed in AutoReject Super Touring and the FIA Endurance Challenge.

Early Life

Crabtree started off on a stock car career path, with his father helping fund seasons in street stock series in Arkansas. He climbed up the ladder and had some success in NASCAR Late Models, showing prowess on both road courses and short tracks.

Blokkmonsta Motorsport

Rather than continue on the stock car ladder Crabtree took an offer with Blokknmonsta Motorsport to race in the Rejects Touring Car Championship alongside fellow rookie Michael Rohnstock. Despite low expectations in the European-centric series he performed well, finishing 10th in the standings for his rookie season in 2016, taking a podium at Suzuka.

He continued with Blokkmonsta as the series reorganized into AutoReject Super Touring. The switch to a stock car formula should have played to Crabtree's strengths, but he struggled, only finishing 21st in the standings for 2017, taking another podium at Watkins Glen.

The 2018 saw him take his first victory in the series in Australia, but a series of high-profile collisions with his teammate Rohnstock lead to him being sacked from the team in favor of Lasse Tilkesson. He finished the season with MK Scuderia.

He also participated in the Rejects Rallycross Championship, but left with Blokkmonsta due to scheduling conflicts.

After Blokkmonsta

Crabtree stayed with MK Scuderia as the team switched to the FIA Endurance Challenge, driving in the GT-Am class. For 2019 he won the 6 Hours of Akrotiri Bay and had a successful season with the team.

Crabtree also contemplated returning to the United States to resume racing in stock cars. He earned a drive in the revitalized NASCAR Cup Series, taking a part-time drive with Gaunt Brothers Racing as a "road course ringer" for 2021.
