"MISFIT GARAGE" GETS WHEELS TURNING IN BRAND-NEW SEASON PREMIERING WEDNESDAY, MAY 2 ON DISCOVERY

(Los Angeles) - The oddball crew at Fired Up Garage shifts into high gear for an all-new season of MISFIT GARAGE, returning to Discovery Channel on Wednesday, May 2nd at 9PM ET/PT. The FAST N' LOUD spin-off series is back with brand-new episodes, and the misfits are ready to change the game. This season the team takes on their most ambitious build yet in hopes of improving their reputation, but with their usual antics and a team member's departure, the crew at Fired Up Garage must put everything on the line for success.

MISFIT GARAGE follows the crew at Fired Up Garage - Thomas Weeks, Tom Smith, John Klump and Josh Paris - as they set out to prove themselves as the top shop in Texas for custom street rods. That's an arduous task for the misfits as they're down man power after a crew member's abrupt departure. Will the remaining team at Fired Up Garage bring their A-game to become the leading custom street rod shop in Texas, or will they crumble under pressure?

This season, the misfits aim to build their best cars yet and take on the ambitious task of creating a custom 1978 Chevy K5 Blazer that cost Thomas a pretty penny. With the pressure on to recoup the expense, the misfits plan to showcase the Blazer at a car show in Texas, but Richard Rawlings stops by Fired Up Garage and throws a Gas Monkey wrench in their plans. Not letting anyone or anything get in their way, the misfits buckle up and get down to business, vowing to turn a profit and build cars that are bigger and badder than ever.
