Two new pitcrew members, Miles Moody and Simon Sherry-Wood, also have been introduced and will join the current pitcrew members, Jason Carter and Shawn Morales.The winner of this season will walk away with a prize package that will include a supply from Colorevolution Cosmetics and a cash prize of $100,000.
