There are very few shows that match the excitement and adrenaline that viewers get from watching the

Also playing a big role in these races is a personality like Chris Dave, also known as Kamakazi Chris, who entered the show in its third season, however, his fans became concerned about his disappearance from the show without proper clarification from the producers. of the show, so What Really Happened to Kamakazi? Firstly, for one to venture into an unconventional career like

street

racing, there has to be some kind of push from an early stage that fosters the skills and courage needed to excel in the sport.

Chris Dave turns out to be one of the very few people who dare to take this career path from an early age. Chris learned the skills and also developed the courage necessary to fit into such a risky career path from his father. It turns out that Chris's father was also a master at the game since From the little information available, he was an expert in racing motorcycles, boats and cars, an off-roader of some kind. Unfortunately, Chris has managed to keep his private life and that of his family away from the public, so very little is known about his father's exploits in the sport.

However, Chris let a bit of information slip in a post he made on his Facebook account on July 29, 2015 as a tribute to his father. In the publication we learned that his father had died at the age of 44, which is quite a young age. I was also able to share some fun memories remembering that I had taught him and his other friends everything they know in the post that Chris talked about Justin Sheerer and Tyler. The three of them have been together for quite some time, which now excludes Flip, who had passed away. A few years ago, Chris also brings some life to the fact that his father was strict and hard-working, no wonder Chris had learned how to drive engines and cars.

He mentioned that the old man built the boats that he used in races. He mentioned that the old man built the boats he used in racing himself, although passion might have been the main driving force behind Chris' participation in racing. His father's strictness may also have played a role in instilling in him the discipline he needed to progress in the field. He even yelled at them every time they seemed to be deviating from what they had been taught, all of this was not in vain anyway, watching his father while growing up Chris began to cultivate his love for the sport and turned out to be addicted to sports. adrenaline at a very young age.

He had his own bicycle with which he developed his courage and love for racing. His lust for excitement and display of bravery had earned him the nickname Kamakazi in honor of the legendary Kamakazi. The nickname Kamakazi is a testament to the bravery Chris is known for. While in the clues this was a reference to the Japanese Kamakazi of World War II, as much as this may have signaled his bravery, it could have been the basis that led to the events that almost took Chris's life later on. while growing up. He wasn't alone in this thirst for the thrills of racing, he shared this with his father and also with an old friend, Justin Sheerer, who you may know as the big boss next to him.

The duo grew up and never forgot how they started with Chris's father. Justin's second father and was a major influence on his later career in street racing. Big Chief, as he is affectionately called, was a name given to him by people like Chris and has stuck since he appeared on the premiere of Street Outlaws in 2013 and has since played a major role in identifying and recruiting talent for the show. , it was through him that people like Chris entered the show and lived up to the expectations of his career before moving to the Discovery Channel. Very little was known about Chris Dave and his appearance on the show Street Outlaws in the third season that was shown in 2014 was the biggest push for Chris Dave to achieve fame, but despite the attention of Newfound, focuses The Narrative on their exploits and achievements on the slopes.

Chris's personal life remains hidden to a reasonable extent. Shortly after joining the show, Chris the Kamakazi quickly became a household name among fans of the show, especially with the way he became one with his vehicle, taking untold risks to find the best possible approach to reach the summit after each race of a From a young age, Chris learned that his vehicle serves as an extension of himself. With this in mind, the young man has felt at home with every vehicle he has driven, customizing each one to suit his tastes and vision and making it an opponent like no other.

One should underestimate in a race the most popular vehicle Chris has driven on the street outlaw tracks is the El Camino, nicknamed the Elco. Chris was not the original owner of this vehicle, it was given to him by Justin Sheerer. who took him into his custody after his dear friend Tyler passed away in 2013, although many people love to see Tyler in the premiere of the show Street Outlaw in 2013, what they didn't realize is that Tyler, popularly called flip, He was no longer alive when the show premiered. he died in May of that year and was buried in June.

He was the third person in Chris's circle who also benefited from Chris' father's racing experience. The trio Chris Justin and Tyler often rode their bikes to go watch races when they were much younger which created a very strong bond between them to this day no one is really sure what caused Tyler's death the details have remained hazy as neither the family nor the show's producers have issued any official statement on the matter. All we have is speculation, one thing is clear. Although the runner did not die from race-related accidents, he died at his home in Yukon, Oklahoma.

According to fan speculation, he could have died from gunshot wounds, which is unclear whether it would have been self-inflicted or from an attack. Although the Tyler that many saw at the premiere of Street Outlaws was fearless and performed very well on the tracks in his 1980 Chevy El, he affectionately named the car due to the fact that it was built from different parts of the car and It had very unique modifications. The running back was one of those personalities that anyone would have a really hard time replacing on the show. What we saw after Tyler's death was a kind of preservation of his time on the slopes by his friends, even though someone like Justin had considered El Camino a ticking time bomb. because he thought the car might explode or stop working along the line due to the extensive modifications he had preserved to the car after his friend's passing, he then gave it to Kamakazi just as a way to keep the memory of him alive. his friend on the tracks since then.

Until 2020, the car was very well looked after by Chris, who made racing in it much safer and even faster, the bond that had existed between the trio was a testament to what true friendship they were able to desecrate All Odds together. and learned the discipline and dedication necessary to build a solid career on the tracks, all three are known today for their exploits on the tracks in not-so-legal street racing, overlooking the risks and staring death in the face every time. who went on to build something truly beautiful that inspires love in some fans who have seen them break records on the slopes, their network was their main impetus to reach Greater Heights Big Chief and, in turn, they were the ones who first entered the slopes, it was through his influence on the sport that Chris had the opportunity to take on a similar task.

It was among this group of friends that Justin earned the name Big Boss, which has become one of the most popular names among street

outlaws

to this day. Fast forward to mid-2020. The Big Boss's reservations about El Camino. could have materialized before an event that almost cost the show a character like kamakazi Chris Chris has managed to build something for himself on the slopes despite his humble origins, he has been involved in different companies in an attempt to be able to pay for his dreams on the tracks that led him to a life committed to building and working on things that have an engine, this way he could afford to begin his career participating in local Oklahoma races, where he honed his skills for scenes such as Outlaws street cars considering the cost of

prep

aring these high-performance cars for the track, you can imagine the kind of relief Chris must have felt when Justin handed him Tyler's El Camino.

He had always appreciated the vehicle and treated each race as a tribute to a dear friend. That feeling would soon end. will be short lived as a very unexpected event occurred in 2020 which became very devastating for Chris, taking him out of the street outlaw scenes, to this day racing is quite an expensive venture and requires a lot of resources to build and maintain the vehicles you see. When participating in some of these crazy adventures, all money is spent at the risk of losing everything in an accident and in such situations, thanks to the safety features that come standard with these vehicles, most racers leave without a scratch, but on other occasions there have been situations where racers get seriously injured and may have cars that cannot be repaired, so in addition to losing money bets on the show where the loser ends up going home without a cash prize , you have a great chance of losing all investments. done in the construction of these vehicles, the latter turns out to be the fate of fan-favorite kamakazi, Chris, no one was sure what exactly the cause was, but Chris lost control of his vehicle in the middle of a race in 2020, which which caused the car to crash into one. from the trackside barricades, an event that left Chris devastated, as it later emerged from the racer after he was pulled alive from the wrecked Elco, for him, this was a huge success, but he didn't end up losing the prize money . for the competition he also had to start looking for a new vehicle since the Elco was damaged beyond repair it was a miracle that the program did not record the loss of one of its racers that day a great relief for all fans of the show the accident provided a little insight into why the sport is largely considered illegal.

Each runner leaves each day without knowing what their fate will be on the slopes. The danger faced on the tracks is not just for street racing, even for professional racers. Similar dangers are faced in more organized races like F1, one can only hope that the regulations on the standard of vehicles taking part in these races remain strict because this could only have been what saved Chris from that accident. We later learned that the accident could have been the result of Chris downplaying a fault he had noticed in the vehicle's driveshaft earlier - he simply couldn't resist the urge when challenged to a race that ended up costing him everything that day, a move to show that dominion had become.

It turned out to be a devastating event that will remain fresh in the memories of Chris and his fans, who might have thought they had lost him that day, the tension fans felt increased when they did not see their favorite in the following seasons of the series. Speculation began to grow that he might have been fired from the show, but that remains highly unlikely as he has been seen participating in eating at some other local races in Oklahoma and also some of the Street Outlaws spin-offs, however. no matter what Chris might have done. Faced on the tracks, the near-death experience that takes him off the tracks might require more than one accident losing a prized car, and you'll also be mistaken in thinking he's not fully back because he hasn't gotten a vehicle.

To secure a spot on the show about a month ago, a Buddy Dog user shared a video in which Chris gave an update on what fans should expect from him and what he's currently up to. He also clarified his status with the Street Outlaws of In the video, he made it clear that many fans have been concerned about what he has been up to since he had the accident and said that he is still a part of the Street Outlaw program, although it is possible that he actually Don't be very active in the program. Right now, he's focusing on running his auto shop and his YouTube channel, Kamakazi Life, where he shows off some of the behind-the-scenes effort he puts into building some of the crazy rides.

You can't help but appreciate the effort and dedication that goes into it. Some of these cars have to be really sad to lose, just like Chris lost the Elco, so Chris hasn't been idle and has good sourcesof income to move forward. She also had a pretty big announcement for her fans who loved it. It turns out that Elco is making efforts to rebuild Elco; However, he has said the project could take a while given the extent of the damage we all saw on that vehicle. The project will certainly require a lot of capital, especially as Chris has a new baby on the track once again, it makes a lot of sense that Chris would want the car back on the track not only because his fans would have loved to see it on the car or because you must have gotten used to driving it, there's something really good about the car. important sentimental value to Chris having belonged to an old friend with whom he had shared everything growing up, we keep our fingers crossed on this and look forward to seeing how it will play out later over the years that Chris has been on the path he has had.

He became popular with many people, so right after the accident, the people he referred to in the video as friends from the north soon approached him and sold him an idea to get a car they had. It was for sale at the time and Chris didn't want to pass up the opportunity. Chris keeps a lot of things about him private, including his net worth, but from the little information we gathered we were able to place his net worth at approximately 300,0000. so he had something to get back on track and pay for the new car. . Some of you who follow his channel must have seen the transport of this new car which turned out to be a heavily modified CT vet, Chris, had the car in the garage when he made this video and revealed that he was working on the car to make it adaptable to the tracks he races on despite the modifications he had been making at the CT vet.

He admitted that the car is also very fast at least from what he had seen on the test drive. As a measure to recover from the loss he faced on the track, Chris had already auctioned off some of the Elco pieces. that he survived the accident the fact that the pieces came with his autographs and were part of the legendary Elco made them reach a reasonable price around $20,000 personal life currently not much is known about Chris's personal life, especially his relationship status, no one knows whether he is married or not, perhaps the runner has really committed his entire life to racing and has not found time to attend to matters of the heart;

There is also a good chance that something has happened to him in the past that no one knows could be the case, the resilience and courage that Chris has shown over the years is quite impressive and inspiring for anyone who wants to venture into racing. street he still continues with that excitement and love that he developed during life on the slopes when he was little legacy inherited from his father, certainly his father will smile at him wherever he is, so that's it for the incredible and inspiring life of Kamakazi Chris and the unfortunate accident that has altered their career as street

outlaws

, the program continues to serve. hot and we hope to have Chris back on the screens until then, keep the love for Thrills alive and see you in the next video.
