Race car driver Eric Kvilhaug will not compete with the Street Outlaws No Prep Kings in 2023. He last competed with the series in 2021.

He missed last season after being involved in a car at Tucson Dragway in Arizona.

“Hey, KaosVette fans!,” the Facebook post said. “We’ve got some tough news to share with you. Due to work obligations and family commitments, we won’t be able to participate in the Street Outlaws No Prep Kings series this season. We’re saddened to withdraw, but we know that sometimes work and family have to come first.

“We want you to know that we had an absolute blast while it lasted. The caliber of racing in the series is top-notch, and we’ll always treasure the memories we made with our fellow racers and fans. We wish all our NPK friends and historic Team Cali the very best in this new season.”

The Street Outlaws No Prep Kings are prepping for their season opener in June. The multi-week drag racing tour will begin on June 2nd at National Trail Raceway in Hebron, Ohio.

The tour will make at least 14 stops around the country. The expected season-ending race will be in Texas in October.

Before stepping away, Kvilhaug does have one win in the series.

“We want to apologize to all of our fans for not being able to participate this year,” the post also said. “We evaluated every circumstance and tried to find a way to make it work, but unfortunately, it just wasn’t in the cards for us. We’re truly sorry for any disappointment this news may bring.

“Thank you for the opportunity to participate in the series and for all the great memories. We’ll still be following along and cheering on our fellow racers from the sidelines!”
