Andre Beadle, car video star, killed in high-speed Queens crash, mourned at Bronx memorial, in online tributes

Andre Beadle, the 25-year-old man killed after crashing his BMW near JFK Airport in Queens, was a widely known car enthusiast, racer and influencer who was mourned across the Internet following his death.

Tributes poured in for Beadle, known by fans as 1Stockf30, who regularly posted videos on YouTube, TikTok and Instagram of potentially dangerous high-speed racing along local highways.

On Instagram, where Beadle had 251,000 followers, there were more than 500 comments under his final post — a video filmed from inside a car accelerating to a blazing 140 mph within just 3 seconds.

“RIP to the man who started it all,” wrote Hasan Balakit.

“Really paved the way for the whole community,” another user posted.

“I’m deeply sorry, brother. I hope your family and friends find peace and take comfort in knowing how many lives you touched. Rest in peace,” wrote a user called gold_gent.

Beadle was from Laconia, in the East Bronx. On Friday, friends, family and hundreds of fans gathered to pray and release balloons in tribute to the fallen racer at Haffen Park, a few blocks from where Beadle lived.

The huge crowd was a testament to Beadle’s celebrity, according to Beadle’s mother, who arrived at the park in her son’s custom yellow Audi TT RS.

“Everybody loved him. Look at this gathering,” said Everith McCray. “He was a kind and loving son. He was always smiling. It’s devastating, just devastating.”

Justin Rivera, host of the Street Alpha Podcast, spoke to the Daily News at Beadle’s memorial to discuss the late influencer’s appeal and the international following he’d garnered.

“He set the standard for what was cool, especially in the Bronx,” Rivera said. “He was a young Black man making it out of the ’hood with a nice car.

“He did a lot of films with us. It’s a big loss — not just locally, but nationally and internationally. He had a large worldwide following, including [in] his home country of Jamaica.”

One fan who spoke to the Daily News at Beadle’s memorial said that the influencer’s death would be felt by car enthusiasts the world over.

“1stockf30 was famous all over, not just in the Bronx,” said 21-year-old Anthony Perez. “He was 25 and gone too soon. It’s a loss for all of us.”

Early Wednesday morning, Beadle was driving his 2023 BMW “at a high rate of speed” on the Nassau Expressway near Exit 3 at North Hangar Road when he lost control of the wheel, cops said.

The car veered off the road to the right and slammed into a light pole, which then sent the car careening back to the left side of the road, police said.

The victim was thrown from the tumbling luxury car and was found by first responders in a heap on the ground.

He was rushed to Jamaica Hospital but he could not be saved.

No other vehicles were involved in the crash and no other injuries were reported, cops said.
