True Blood star Stephen Moyer flipped his car while driving in the Long Beach Grand Prix on Friday afternoon, but he walked away without a scratch.

Moyer, 41, reportedly spent the night on the True Blood set working until 6am Friday morning and went straight to the race track for the Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race. After an hour of sleep and a quick power nap during the lunch break, the actor flipped his car on the track.

He got out unscathed and even won the People Pole Position Award and earned $15,000 for his chosen charity Facing the Atlantic.

“I feel like a little kid with a toy race-car! I’ve always loved racing. I played with toy cars as a kid. I just don’t want to go home!” Moyer told a blog about participating in the race.

Moyer married his True Blood co-star Anna Paquin in August 2010.
