California car influencer James Wehr, 27, and Florida Hooters Calendar Girl Alexis \u201cLexi\u201d Kramer, 22, have been identified as the two people killed in a fiery McLaren crash early Sunday in Irvine, Orange County, California.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pair died around 12:20 a.m. Sunday, when the high-performance McLaren reportedly crashed into a tree at a high rate of speed, split in half and caught fire. Wehr was known in the Southern California car community as the founder of South OC Cars and Coffee, a major gathering that attracts thousands of vehicles and enthusiasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kramer, a 22-year-old Hooters calendar girl from Lakeland, Florida, had reportedly flown to California to meet Wehr, according to a family member who spoke with The Post. The family member said Kramer and Wehr had connected through Instagram and had been communicating daily for approximately one month before meeting in person.<\/p>\n\n\n

According to the family member, Kramer flew out Friday and spent the weekend with Wehr. The pair reportedly went on a first date, had breakfast and drinks together, and attended Wehr\u2019s widely known car show before the fatal crash.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
