Reaume Brothers Racing fields machines in the NASCAR Xfinity Series and NASCAR Truck Series. The team is owned by Josh Reaume and based out of Mooresville, North Carolina.

Last year, the team partnered with Ernst Berg to form Hezeberg Racing. They fielded a part-time entry in the NASCAR Cup Series.

On Thursday, the Reaume Brothers Racing shop caught fire.

The Mooresville Fire and Rescue stated the fire was quickly extinguished. However, three patients have been treated.

The team has posted the following updates:

Thursday Update

“Earlier this afternoon, there was a fire at the RBR shop,” the team confirmed via social media.

“An investigation into the cause is ongoing. We are in the process of determining the extent of the damages.”

“More importantly, a few of out team members did sustain injuries during the fire and being transported for medical treatment.”

“Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.”

Thursday Night Update

“Our team members, Taylor Collier and Devin Fokin, have been treated and released,” the team updated.

“Taylor was treated for smoke inhalation at Lake Norman Regional and Devin was treated for serious burns at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist’s Burn Center. They are both in good spirits and are now on the road to recovery.”

“As a team, we wanted to thank Mooresville Fire and Rescue/EMS for their quick response time and for controlling the fire as well as helping our team at the scene, and to the nurses and doctors at Lake Norman Regional and Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist for taking care of out team members who were transported.”
