It’s awesome it’s perfect, you guys are making all the right moves which is VERY hard to do and somehow you’re looking good to America. This is what’s right.
You sir are "NOT" a sell out. You are staying true to yourself and I can say that is a hard path to follow... I admire your strength to do so. Looking forward to watching you forge your path forward. Good luck to you and Jackie.
Big Chief just pulled a Dave Chappelle on Discovery and I can’t be happier for him!! You do you, support what you are and what you want. Anyone who says differently has never had to make a tough decision for themselves. You stood up for what you believed in and never spoke negatively about anyone. Kudos sir! And thank you for staying true to what you do.
My son is 7 and when he first found out you had left his world ended. He and I just finished the video and he is more than happy to watch your channel than the show. He has a gto that he calls mr. Crow not the same as yours but he definitely believes in you. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for you and Jackie
I have nothing but love and respect for you Big Chief! I've been watching Street Outlaws since the beginning. It's definitely not the same without you! I wish you all the best and hope to see you back on the show soon! I'm from Dallas Texas but I am a 100% fan of the 405 and everything you and the other racers have accomplished over the years. Thank you for being who you are as a street racer and as a person. I will continue to support you anyway I can. I can talk for hours about you and Street Outlaws to anybody that will listen to me because although I haven't street raced in a while I share your passion and excitement for street racing! "If your street be street. If you ain't be ain't"
Just gained a whole new respect for you my friend. You’re a stand-up guy and you stand up and refuse to lower your standards for a crazy tv show to make another station more money. You keep doing what you do and ride your own wave. I love it when people live by their own standards and what they believe in. The world is getting away from being their own person and let people persuade them to change their beliefs and integrity for someone else’s benefit. Stick to it because the people who still stand by you will still be beside you and the others that don’t, you don’t need them or want them on your side. Way to go A man’s man is getting hard to find but I’m glad I found one.
The amount of emotions flowing throughout the video is just ecstatic! "Whatever happens, happens for the better good". We love you regardless Chief and Jackie. " You are not Chief because of Street Outlaws, Street Outlaws is what it is today because of You." And they should get this fact hammered straight into their brains.
Big Chief I just want you to know that I listened to this when it first came out and then again just now and I didn't know it was possible but I respect you as a man even more! It's great to see someone stand for what they believe in and not falling for anything due to money or fame! You are a awesome racer and even better role model. I think what you guys did and have done for Billy the kid here in Ohio just speaks more of who you truly are away from Street Outlaws.
After watching this video, I am more of a fan of you, Chief, a real man stands up for his beliefs and how he feels things should truly be. I hope to one day meet you and shake your hand. Good luck in all your endeavors..
Someone once said, “If you’re street, be street, if you ain’t, be ain’t.” Thanks for addressing the elephant in the room. A lot of us follow you outside the show, from the podcast to IG and now on here. Change in life is inevitable but sometimes you have to stay real and true to yourself. I can definitely appreciate your position on things and look forward to seeing what else you guys fill your time with. I will say the show is not the same without out you and the jumping the light is already as annoying as it was last season. Guess it’s just sad that whoever made the decisions was ok with not compromising with you and what you’ve contributed to the empire that has been built over the last decade. Can’t wait to see whatever you post next Tuesday.
I applaud you for your backbone and your morals. Not many of us left . If we dont stand for what we believe in or we change ourselves to follow the crowd , then what the hell is the point . Mad RESPECT !!
I love your attitude. If people can’t tell the type of person you are from watching how you carry yourself. How you approach your program. Their a lost cause. I guess from me being a competitor. And working with the do more with less principle in my own discipline it seems so obvious you’re not the guy to walk away from a challenge. And you’re also not the guy who’s going to run around in the back because you’re not competitive. You’re going to find a way to be competitive no matter what. Maybe other people who just couch race can’t get past the one sidedness they see on the show(not sure how that goes I don’t really watch the show) Anyway. Keep doing what you’re doing. I enjoy the content you two make. I’m sure you hear this a lot but I do learn a lot from these videos. I can tell you truly know your shit and are always trying to learn more. And do more with knowledge as opposed to just spending more money.
Crazy to see my favorite youtube influencer supporting my favorite street racer. We gotta get the car done taylor keep it up on the vette much love to the both of you
I cannot wait to watch Taylor build a no prep/back of the track type drag build…. Like I know it won’t happen until the drift season is done, but it’ll be fun to watch.
The production crew has taken a truly genuine "street-race show" and made it into a "soap opera". I watched it from the very first episode, but I quit watching it about a year ago because I don't like "soap operas". Much respect Big Chief. Keep on, Keeping on Brother.
Totally agree about the soap opera just alot of old guys whinning and crying about shit they shouldn't bunch of drama queens, chief was the only one that tried to keep it professional and drama free.
The fact that u walked away knowing exactly what it meant to walk away makes me respect u even more. I already had a lot of respect for u and ur program before this. Knowing how much this show means to and u still walked away speaks volumes. At least to me it does. Don’t ever sell out!! Always keep it 💯💯
A man of integrity. Jackie, Chief, I'm done with the show. I believe in integrity and boundaries. So I got your back man. Way to stay principled. Proud of you guys.
I agree with you. I’m done as well. After last years Americas List, all the fans complained about the rules he mentioned. Additionally us diehard fans have said the show is going down hill for sometime. I got the feeling a lot of the racers have been hanging onto that sinking ship and just doing what production says because that’s their lively hood now, and I get it. Sometimes you just have to keep your head down and do your job for a paycheck. However, Hollywood hasn’t learned yet that you need fans for a TV show and it’s good to see someone who doesn’t need to conform to the “rules” in order to stay relevant. Only reason I watched was for the level headed guys like Chief, Ryan, Scott Taylor, etc. Chief pretty much summed up my thoughts and feelings. I’ll keep watching 187 Customs and Midwest Street Cars RUclips vids until changes to street outlaws are made. What Americas List has become isn’t what we signed up for. I’m out!
I've been a fan from Day 1. This candid and transparent sharing does not go unappreciated. I love your ethical stand on all of it and can appreciate that you have the balls to stand your ground. Congratulations Bro. Take Care!
Big Chief you are tha man bro , Street Outlaws will not be the same without you. We have been a fan since day one , much love from Troy Alabama bro !!!
205, another Alabama boy boy saying, we respect your decision Chief! If you can't be true to yourself then you're a phony! And, I think we all know that you're the farthest thing from being a phony! How can you call it Fastest in America, when the fastest in America isnt even there! What disappoints me is that all of the 405 guys didn't back you up... If Ryan, Dave, Jeff, and Shawn would have said "if Chief's out, we're out" I would have respected them! But, obviously they didn't.... So, I wont watch another episode! To me, chase is a race is a chicken shit way to race anyway! Whoever the producer is needs to be run out of the building!
I was just telling my husband you made the show. We don’t know you personally but the way you carry yourself, your reactions and everything. It’s obvious this show wasn’t for you anymore. We always thought the show became too Hollywood and I’m glad you’re happy and your doing what keeps you being you. Much love 💕
"The List" Will not be the same without you, you are an OG of OKC & "being street" I will always be a fan of you & Jackie. P.S. They are Gunna miss you big time!
It's called integrity. You have it. Proud of you Chief. Excited to see what the future holds for you. Oh and Jackie is awesome. At first I wasn't sure but she quickly proved she deserved to be there with you.
Bro, you and this show has been a part of my life, my mom's life, and my cousins life. My mom passed away last year and one of the last things we watched together was Street Outlaws. She loved the show and just who you are. This would make her happy to see you standing up for the right thing. Hopefully one day I get the chance to meet you. Because of you drag racing became a big part of my life again. Much love from California, brother.
I'm OG Street Outlaws and to me that means "Big Chief". I respect you, I trust your word, I like you and feel like I know what kind of guy you are - a stand up racer with integrity who uses diplomacy to get through these tough life & work situations. We all know television show production will bleed you dry and walk you to the line of betraying who you are. To hell with fame - stay true to who you are. I won't watch SO without you but I'll be excited to see what the future holds for you and your beautiful girl. Stay cool!
@@edquinn7135 chiefs crow-mod/pro mod hasn't been ran in quite a few years.... Now if you're calling his gto or the vette or the caddy a "pro mod" you're just a fuckin putz lol.
America fell in love with you big chief... we want to see you, we love the 405, but you're the leader, we wanna see you commentating/narrating so hopefully there is no street outlaws without you. Win lose or race Master we want you.
Shout out and huge Thanks to Chief for bringing street racing into our homes. Glad to hear this is not the end of your journey and we will hopefully get to see you in other racing events, best wishes to you and yours on your next chapter.
Big Chief, you were the host from the beginning and you've done a great job. The popularity of the show was mainly because of your contributions. For that stud breakage, I think that it was faulty from the start or else the nut was way over torqued at some point. The discoloration at the point of breakage indicates that there was cracking evident in the stud for a while, it probably felt spongy when the nut was torqued down and possibly may have never reached it's spec torque rate to begin with. Somebody either overlooked the issue or didn't give a shit. The manufacturer really needs to see that thing and the rest of the studs on that engine, too. If it's an ARP piece, I know that they want to look at it, because I seriously doubt that it would have ever passed their quality control, but you never know, shit happens with mass produced products. Good luck to you both and stay safe.
Arp are and arent mass produced, they only make a specific amount of orders for each company that puts in an order. So yea they sometimes mass produce but other times they might only make 100 bolts at a time.
That's the show I want to see. Chief and Jackie, traveling and racing people. If that means I have to watch it on RUclips, that's fine. I'll still be coming to Midwest to get a new shirt when I'm in okc
Good on you Chief ! Few people understand the importance of looking into the mirror in the morning and seeing a man staring back. Integrity is everything ! You are a good man.
You’ve got this channel to showcase your racing man. Everyone knows who started and built the brand. Every major company and brands think they get to important for the founder but soon find out that’s never the case. I’m excited to see the videos you guys will have time to do now. 🙌
Hey chief my name is Jerry H. I'm 73 years old and I love the show , I can't imagine outlaws without you. I'll watch whatever you guys put out, I was hoping to see you guys race the vet and caddie jack plus anything else you do. Stay true to yourself and you won't regret it . I think you did the right thing.
I think I speak for the majority of us here that you are the reason we started and still watch the show. You are the face of street outlaws and it’s not the same without you. As you have said before you sir are our ride or die. We will follow you where ever you go and decide to do. You guys should start streaming on twitch to allow us a way to interact and connect.
Thanks! I live in Canada, have missed watching you race, have always seemed to me your a pretty chill and down to earth guy. But you should always follow your moral compass, good luck in all that you do, I'm sure you'll do just fine 😈 😁
Huge respect Chief!!!! I really do hope to see you back on the OG 405 show but if that isn't in the plans, I will keep following you on here or whatever platform. Enjoy watching you and The Crow run!!!!!
Man, hear me when I say it: You do what’s best for you and your loved ones. Ignore the hating comments. People who make negative hateful comments, hate themselves, not you. Love the RUclips channel. I like hearing you and Jackie laugh and work on cars!
I have always thought that what you do with that true Pontiac set up is more impressive than what the others are doing with their big pocketbooks. It is also a testament to your tuning skills and drive to succeed at making your car do work and compete at the highest level always. Keep it up buddy what your doing is working and when you show up to race you know you got everyone's attention and they know they better bring their lunch.
Chief, first off thank you for not compromising your integrity. Thank you for producing some excellent content for the last decade. Thank you for bringing street racing into the mainstream. Not one single person could say you weren’t for the street, you went from being the guy who put the show on to building your car(s) taking us through the tiny lense of your life and the personal sacrifices and gains. Thank you! Also can we bring back the podcast now? 👀
Congratulations! I quit watching the show a while back because of all the drama. The show became a sitcom around the same time JJ showed up. The original street outlaws was the only street outlaws to me. Glad to see you stayed true to yourself and your passion! Don’t see that much in the world today. Best of luck in all you do. Can’t wait to see you both out there racing in the back of track and the many other street racing events. Love your channel! You have the best girlfriend a man could have! Congratulations to you both
True fans can tell exactly when the production took more control than letting the drivers. Cant wait to see what you have in store. Hell, we've watched everyone for so long that we feel like we know y'all (to a degree) Much respect
Chief, we don't care what it is, we just wanna see racing. You've always been 100% about the racing, and that's why you have the following you do. Put the car in the box, make the haters kick rocks.
The good thing about this deal is that you have a loyal fan base with or without the show. We will be here with you guys no matter what happens. You have to do what’s best for you!
I am one of many that have watched the show from day one and am a loyal follower of Big Chief and what he was trying to bring to the world of racing. I want you to know Big Chief I don't think the show will be the same without you nor will it ever if you do not come back and stand up for what you believe in and bring to the table what you always have. I'm glad you have declared your feelings in this video and explained yourself it really means a lot to a viewer like me. I'm super excited about your future and what you may bring to us as viewers soon. Looking forward to seeing it hope you and your family doing great nothing but love from The Smiths
I’m only 19min in and I just want to say, Chief you are the only reason this show has lasted this long. The viewers can tell how real you are tried to keep it. If the tv executives had full control, it would’ve crashed and burned a long time ago. Look at PINKS. We got a few good seasons and then it got watered down until it no longer existed. Chief you were the backbone of Street Outlaws and NO ONE could’ve done better
Its seems in life there comes a time where everyone hits a crossroad. You took a high road and deserve the utmost respect. I watched this from day one and I love the street outlaws brand.
The arguing and drama is the main reason I don’t watch every episode like I used too. When the show first started and it was more about the racing and less about the drama I enjoyed it 100% more.
After watching the channel for the Last 11 months, I'm so glad you made this decision. Seeing you happy and sharing your knowledge with Jackie and us is amazing. Can't wait to see what this year brings!
Been following you since day 1.. street outlaws suck without you I follow you because your real and relatable to us smaller guys Im ready for some real street and no prep this year!!
Integrity isn't for sale. You're a stand up guy chief. I've watched you grow since day one. I hope you and Jackie take us along on your next adventure. Proud to say that I'm your fan.
Season 1 was the best. Everyone seemed so real and enjoyed the hell out of what they did. Loved the pranks and wish everyone could have experienced more of Flip. Love you guys and keep standing up for what you believe in! After all that is why we are here with you!
It’s cool that you lay this out for everyone. You don’t even need to give an explanation, but you still do. It’s awesome to see how you never let any of the attention or fame change you.
Respect level just went up 10 fold..so cool seeing someone take a stance against bs and sticking to your true beliefs regardless of money and fame. You n Jackie have one of the best pages on RUclips and can't wait to see future videos
Way to go, much respect to you for standing up for what you believe in. Sure would be nice if you could start another show going back to the roots that was just awesome to watch. I used to never miss an OG street outlaws show and now i have lost all interest.
As someone who's been a part of "reality" TV before, I fully understand and feel for you. What most people don't get, is that they edit everything said into the way they want the end viewer to perceive it. They ask you questions in interviews, then tell you to repeat the question in your answer as if it was your idea to speak on it... I get it! At the end of the day, You brought street racing into the main stream, and you'll always be the chief of it all... not just the 405. There's lots of good racers that only a few of us knew about till you started a show 10 years ago. They all owe you for those sponsors they have now... at least in my opinion. Stay true to yourself, and everyone that matters will respect you for it.
Just like you told JJ when he rode the bumper of Ziptie 600ft, this video is “some of the real-est shit I’ve ever seen!” And that’s why we love you and will follow you anywhere. Also, GREAT editing Jackie-keep em coming!
You're a stand up guy, Chief....clearly as real as it fuckin' gets and this proves it. *This* is what real integrity looks like....and we'll be watching whatever comes next with you and Jackie. "Cause it's been really great so far...
I know what it's like to walk away from something u love because it has grown a direction that know longer works for you. Respect, Big Chief! On to your next chapter man.... Salute!
Hay Bro, your the Real OG and the show ain't the same without you and they can't call themselves the fastest without you there. So I'll keep watching whatever you posted kuz I enjoy you and Jackie videos and you guys are funny as hell. Peace Big O for St.Paul, MN
@@MidwestStreetCarsAuto sorry that rest of 405 didn't stand up Shawn Dave chuck monza should of stood by ya I alway expected more from them and Ryan as well
First off...I am a big fan of you, the other guys and gals, and the show(s). So your basically saying your core set of values as a street racer were pushed so far out of bounds that you made a decision to stay true to yourself and your values. Much respect sir. Also I love the second half of the video on Jackie's car (head stud). I love watching races, but also love the technical side of watching you guys wrench on your cars. Keep em coming! I'll subscribe.
Dude standing next to you not even realizing it at first in Dallas January even after moving 5 times all night long was awesome just seeing you an Jackie out in the real street her filming every pass that went down. That was it man your just a regular dude that loves racing just like us. Keep on keeping it real !
Two weeks ago I stood up for myself and my coworkers against the monster I worked for. I took one for the team and lost my job because I refused to let my integrity be dragged through the dirt. You did the same thing with the shows. You stood your ground and stood tall against the monster that the shows have become. We tip our hat to you and will gladly follow whatever the future holds for you.
You were always my favorite driver and most relatable person on the show. You are a stand up guy and really made the show what it is today. People don't realize that without the popularity of the midwest streetcar scene that you pretty much orchestrated there would be no street outlaws. I know that you will be successful in your future endeavors and I am a fan of you and not just because of racing but also the way you carry yourself and your values and morals. I will follow you on youtube and wish you much success. Street outlaws is getting watered down and they rather have characters than real racers with real values. Much respect to you Chief.
I wanna see you and Jackie take on a drag and drive event. Building a 6 second car that car drive 1000 miles on the street from track to track is not something a lot of people can do, and I think you and Jackie's dynamic would be incredible for a YT series. Get with some of the current car youtubers (ie Cleetus, Donut, 1320, Hoonigan, etc) and find someone to edit, or trade drag skill for editing skill lessons, lol. You can blow up on here (and other platforms), and never have anyone tell you what to do.
I actually totally agree lol not only on the drag and drive, but their personalities on a RUclips channel with regular content would be equal parts entertainment and absolute hysterical
Justin, really did enjoy the OG show, love you and Mr. 187. Its funny to see how much everything has changed with all the shows that got produced where not that long ago y'all where open trailering to races. Now Toters/Semis rule the world, miss the early days. Take care of yourself because no one else will.
Man I'm listener #13 from way back in the podcast days. I gotta say keep your head up and continue to do you. Me and my wife watch all your guys RUclips stuff, especially when you're teaching us tricks and tips. I would love to hear more about the splitting the banks on nitrous set up.
Man I did my other comment before watching the whole video, and Wow I am fucking excited to see what's coming from you guys. No disrespect to the show but you can only watch the same dudes race each other over and over, now after the Americas list they got real housewives of street racing show! Hell money wise there's some real dipshits that make good money on RUclips so you 2 will be fine.
Takes a real man to stand up for what they believe and follow what they feel is right. Even if others think different. You do you. Keep up the hard work and do what you feel is right.
Time and time again whether it's on camera or off camera or whether you're the race master or just a participant it's always been about your integrity which has been the glue that I believe held the show together. It was never more apparent watching you handle some of the conflict that was ongoing during America's list. I think there needs to be more people like you that are willing to stand up for their beliefs regardless of the outcome. I hope you read this know that there is one fan that sees you clearly and loves everything you stand for dearly. ❤
Justin, you have had my respect since day one, today you really justified it. This would be tearing up most of the other guys, but you are doing it on your terms. "Build it and they will come". So....build it again. Respect.
There was life before street outlaws and there will be life after it! I'm a genuine fan of the show and anyone who has watched from the beginning will understand your decision to be a genuine one! Haters ain't real fans simple. Big respect to you guys.
I personally miss you being on the show. My son and I watch it regularly, of course we download your shows, we do not have cable and never will again LOL. I figured the 405 guys would get together walk off the show with you. It is not fun anymore without you and Farm Truck and AZN trying to do their own show, failed. Why not bring back what was not broken . The list is where it was at, street racing NOT TRACK RACING. Honestly I skip over the boring track nonsense. Street racing is exciting and why I liked the weekly shows you guys did. I am 67 years old, I enjoyed racing stock cars with additiional tweaks we did. Seeing you guys with this new equipment going as fast as you do, it is just satisfying for me, thank you!!
STAND UP FOR WHAT YOIU BELIEVE IN OR YOU’LL FALL FOR ANYTHING BROTHER!!!!! YOU DO YOU AND LOVE DOING IT!!!! YOU AND JACKIE ARE MORE THAN QUALIFIED TO DO YOUR OWN THING AND ILL DAMN SURE WATCH MY FRIEND
Big Chief, you just earned a whole new level if respect from myself and alot of others. Staying true to yourself and racing instead of the fame and clout is a big man move and the world definitely needs more of that! Keep that same vibe and stay safe out there!
After I listened to this I have a higher respect for you for STANDING UP FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN AND HOW YOU STARTED. You do what is best for you. I am going to miss seeing you. I have been a fan since day one. Keep your head up, and be YOU. Best of luck Chief. And your words are true.
Damn chief ,we loved the early street races ! I loved when your crew would travel to race other crews and visa versa ! That was local street racing ! The producers really screwed the show up .think about it J.J.the boss got his own show because of the 405 the original crew who exposed them. Keep on doing what your doing stay true to the street and your beliefs .that's real ! Not some bullshit producers vision .
Thanks for the “real info”. Much respect! Miss seeing you and Jackie. Thank you for making this Texas Mom/Grandma a huge fan of Street Racing AND the Show!! Good luck, be happy, stay safe, continued prayers and blessings…God Bless!!
me and my family have been fans since day 1, and honestly we are glad to see you sticking too your morals. You always have to do what you feel is right in life, and we wish you all the best going forward. Thank you for all the joy and entertainment you've brought us over the last 10yrs!
Amen. If I can't see Big Chief, it's hard to even watch. In fact, I pretty much quit watching everything now. Damn. Street racing has been in my blood since I could drive, but it's not the same without you and Jackie. I'll be watching for you though. Good luck, I know you'll be the BEST.
I’m 75 years old. Late 60’s early 70’s I spent a lot of time at NHRA events. Pro-stock was the best. Youz guys come along and rekindled my interest in a bunch of good guys, with good cars and bingo…….. interest rekindled. Thanks Pal.
Glad you came out and told what was on your mind. Sometimes you just have to do what’s best for you. Been watching those shows since the beginning and you always did it right. I hate that it’s come to this but I’m glad you stood up for what you want. Ready for you to race in Georgia. We have lots of asphalt!
I don't usually comment on videos but I felt like I had to this time. It is really good to see you sticking to your morals and doing what's right for you and what's helps you sleep better at night. There will always be hate. you can't please everyone but I promise as long as you keep doing you you will be just fine. Need more people like you two for our young ones to learn from.
big chief you are a inspiration to a lot of people including myself, I always knew you were the real deal and I'm proud of the fact your standing up for what you think is right and what is real! with that said I hope to god the network would show you the respect you deserve for making street racing what is is today. thank you and hope to see your future indevers either on tv or here on RUclips
I’ve always been behind you chief, it’s about racing and who can win on the street, not about making a tv show. Racing comes first and the cameras just get to tag along, that’s how it should be.
America’s List isn’t nearly as good without you! We love the other racers, but you are the biggest part and what drew us into the show initially. You and Jackie are just so great. You always try to be fair and you are such a great personality! Missing you so much!!!
@@MD-th9sndon't bring personal life into this. 90% of relationships wouldn't make it in that situation. Street outlaws was one of the hottest shows when it dropped and chief was the star of the show. If you think it's all rainbows your trippin. He got a ton of money and fame and got it stupid quick I'm sure he made some bad decisions but that's his personal life there's no reason to bring that up. If you watch the show you can see it took a toll on his wife and he was more focused on racing and the show then her. Shit happens man not everyone is perfect but he's grown from then and is clearly healthier and on the road to be happier. We all look back 10-20 years ago and wish we could be there but we can't. His personal life has no bearing on his position in the show so theres no reason to bring it up on this video. Not to mention u have no idea what's true and what's not so don't speak on it.
I started watching you and the 405 since the beginning. I lived in and ran a Foster Home and watched with my kids. It's been an absolute pleasure watching you guys over the years. Thank you for everything! My kids loved watching the show. I adopted one of those boys in 2016 who lost his Father at the age of 8. Most of what he remembers about his Dad is working on cars. To say we've loved the show over the years is an understatement. We understand the position you're in and although not happy about not being able to watch you in these shows we look forward to catching up with you , Jackie and the Crow down the road. Wishing you all the best. Seth and Alex.
You and flip are the reason I started watching street outlaws! Much respect for staying true to yourself! That original crow was the best car! Keep racing and winning guy!
sorry about the audio guuuuuys, i'm working on it (again lol)
It’s awesome it’s perfect, you guys are making all the right moves which is VERY hard to do and somehow you’re looking good to America. This is what’s right.

Audio is fine here
It's perfectly fine 🙏
Nothing wrong with it Jackie doing a great job and I am going to call you jax if its ok
Your backbone and integrity is what made you chief. And here's proof
I miss you as the race master! You’re the best at it, period. The show is horrible without you in it. You are by far my fave!
Big facts. It’s not the same at all!
Chief your always gonna be #1 in my book man.noone can claim they are the fastest if they haven't raced you on the road for it.
The pursuit of happiness, this is your journey Big Chief. Negative ppl can ruin your vibe. Fly high bro, best wishes to you and Jackie
You sir are "NOT" a sell out. You are staying true to yourself and I can say that is a hard path to follow...
I admire your strength to do so. Looking forward to watching you forge your path forward. Good luck to you and Jackie.
Big Chief just pulled a Dave Chappelle on Discovery and I can’t be happier for him!! You do you, support what you are and what you want. Anyone who says differently has never had to make a tough decision for themselves. You stood up for what you believed in and never spoke negatively about anyone. Kudos sir! And thank you for staying true to what you do.
I was just thinking that LOL. Much RESPECT CHIEF!!!
Love you and that dam PONTIAC 💯

My son is 7 and when he first found out you had left his world ended. He and I just finished the video and he is more than happy to watch your channel than the show. He has a gto that he calls mr. Crow not the same as yours but he definitely believes in you. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for you and Jackie
I have nothing but love and respect for you Big Chief! I've been watching Street Outlaws since the beginning. It's definitely not the same without you! I wish you all the best and hope to see you back on the show soon! I'm from Dallas Texas but I am a 100% fan of the 405 and everything you and the other racers have accomplished over the years. Thank you for being who you are as a street racer and as a person. I will continue to support you anyway I can. I can talk for hours about you and Street Outlaws to anybody that will listen to me because although I haven't street raced in a while I share your passion and excitement for street racing! "If your street be street. If you ain't be ain't"
Well said!
Just gained a whole new respect for you my friend. You’re a stand-up guy and you stand up and refuse to lower your standards for a crazy tv show to make another station more money. You keep doing what you do and ride your own wave. I love it when people live by their own standards and what they believe in. The world is getting away from being their own person and let people persuade them to change their beliefs and integrity for someone else’s benefit. Stick to it because the people who still stand by you will still be beside you and the others that don’t, you don’t need them or want them on your side. Way to go A man’s man is getting hard to find but I’m glad I found one.
The amount of emotions flowing throughout the video is just ecstatic! "Whatever happens, happens for the better good".
We love you regardless Chief and Jackie.
" You are not Chief because of Street Outlaws, Street Outlaws is what it is today because of You." And they should get this fact hammered straight into their brains.
Man this is what I respect most. You reach out to your fans & tell everyone the way things are & the way you think & feel. Much love to you & Jackie.
Big Chief I just want you to know that I listened to this when it first came out and then again just now and I didn't know it was possible but I respect you as a man even more! It's great to see someone stand for what they believe in and not falling for anything due to money or fame! You are a awesome racer and even better role model. I think what you guys did and have done for Billy the kid here in Ohio just speaks more of who you truly are away from Street Outlaws.
After watching this video, I am more of a fan of you, Chief, a real man stands up for his beliefs and how he feels things should truly be. I hope to one day meet you and shake your hand. Good luck in all your endeavors..
Watch the show from the beginning you are the show can't wait to see what's up next I'm sure it'll be a good one have a good one
Mad respect chief!!! Don't compromise your integrity for anything. Y'all just keep doing what you do
Someone once said, “If you’re street, be street, if you ain’t, be ain’t.” Thanks for addressing the elephant in the room. A lot of us follow you outside the show, from the podcast to IG and now on here. Change in life is inevitable but sometimes you have to stay real and true to yourself. I can definitely appreciate your position on things and look forward to seeing what else you guys fill your time with. I will say the show is not the same without out you and the jumping the light is already as annoying as it was last season. Guess it’s just sad that whoever made the decisions was ok with not compromising with you and what you’ve contributed to the empire that has been built over the last decade. Can’t wait to see whatever you post next Tuesday.
Amen...🙏
Exactly wonderfully said
So true facts it’s not going to be ever the same with out you I’m sorry to say it but it’s not going to be the same with out you
I applaud you for your backbone and your morals. Not many of us left . If we dont stand for what we believe in or we change ourselves to follow the crowd , then what the hell is the point . Mad RESPECT !!
I love your attitude. If people can’t tell the type of person you are from watching how you carry yourself. How you approach your program. Their a lost cause. I guess from me being a competitor. And working with the do more with less principle in my own discipline it seems so obvious you’re not the guy to walk away from a challenge. And you’re also not the guy who’s going to run around in the back because you’re not competitive. You’re going to find a way to be competitive no matter what. Maybe other people who just couch race can’t get past the one sidedness they see on the show(not sure how that goes I don’t really watch the show) Anyway. Keep doing what you’re doing. I enjoy the content you two make. I’m sure you hear this a lot but I do learn a lot from these videos. I can tell you truly know your shit and are always trying to learn more. And do more with knowledge as opposed to just spending more money.
Drift king stopping by. I just finished your last video bro. Can't wait for more.
Crazy to see my favorite youtube influencer supporting my favorite street racer. We gotta get the car done taylor keep it up on the vette much love to the both of you
I cannot wait to watch Taylor build a no prep/back of the track type drag build…. Like I know it won’t happen until the drift season is done, but it’ll be fun to watch.
Hope for a collab shiiit
Chief in a drift car ?!
The production crew has taken a truly genuine "street-race show" and made it into a "soap opera". I watched it from the very first episode, but I quit watching it about a year ago because I don't like "soap operas". Much respect Big Chief. Keep on, Keeping on Brother.
I agree and it's nothing like the first couple of seasons. Plus i truly think Ryan has messed it up also
EXACTLY
Same, stopped watching and just been keeping up with racers on RUclips.
💯 agreed
Totally agree about the soap opera just alot of old guys whinning and crying about shit they shouldn't bunch of drama queens, chief was the only one that tried to keep it professional and drama free.
The fact that u walked away knowing exactly what it meant to walk away makes me respect u even more. I already had a lot of respect for u and ur program before this. Knowing how much this show means to and u still walked away speaks volumes. At least to me it does. Don’t ever sell out!! Always keep it 💯💯
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hell yeah man! That's real talk.
You should go peep reapers video lol
@@boostaddictzofficial watched it and it makes about as much sense as it did when reaper said chief was sleeping with a production member lol
@@906GHOST yeah normally i would just say "ya ok" but he's not the only one whose said this lol soooo 🤷
Thanks Chief for the chat, you are a big reason why we watch. Will miss ya but hope to see you again sooner than later.
A man of integrity. Jackie, Chief, I'm done with the show. I believe in integrity and boundaries. So I got your back man. Way to stay principled. Proud of you guys.
I agree with you. I’m done as well. After last years Americas List, all the fans complained about the rules he mentioned. Additionally us diehard fans have said the show is going down hill for sometime. I got the feeling a lot of the racers have been hanging onto that sinking ship and just doing what production says because that’s their lively hood now, and I get it. Sometimes you just have to keep your head down and do your job for a paycheck. However, Hollywood hasn’t learned yet that you need fans for a TV show and it’s good to see someone who doesn’t need to conform to the “rules” in order to stay relevant.
Only reason I watched was for the level headed guys like Chief, Ryan, Scott Taylor, etc. Chief pretty much summed up my thoughts and feelings. I’ll keep watching 187 Customs and Midwest Street Cars RUclips vids until changes to street outlaws are made.
What Americas List has become isn’t what we signed up for. I’m out!
@@chriscomeaux70 you lie...you watching next week
Well said Chris.
I've been a fan from Day 1. This candid and transparent sharing does not go unappreciated. I love your ethical stand on all of it and can appreciate that you have the balls to stand your ground. Congratulations Bro. Take Care!
Big Chief you are tha man bro , Street Outlaws will not be the same without you. We have been a fan since day one , much love from Troy Alabama bro !!!
From Alabama to roll tide
256! Roll tide
Facts
205, another Alabama boy boy saying, we respect your decision Chief! If you can't be true to yourself then you're a phony! And, I think we all know that you're the farthest thing from being a phony!
How can you call it Fastest in America, when the fastest in America isnt even there!
What disappoints me is that all of the 405 guys didn't back you up...
If Ryan, Dave, Jeff, and Shawn would have said "if Chief's out, we're out" I would have respected them! But, obviously they didn't....
So, I wont watch another episode!
To me, chase is a race is a chicken shit way to race anyway! Whoever the producer is needs to be run out of the building!
@@j.a.r.family2576 256 hear to
I was just telling my husband you made the show. We don’t know you personally but the way you carry yourself, your reactions and everything. It’s obvious this show wasn’t for you anymore. We always thought the show became too Hollywood and I’m glad you’re happy and your doing what keeps you being you. Much love 💕
"The List" Will not be the same without you, you are an OG of OKC & "being street" I will always be a fan of you & Jackie.
P.S. They are Gunna miss you big time!
It's called integrity. You have it. Proud of you Chief. Excited to see what the future holds for you. Oh and Jackie is awesome. At first I wasn't sure but she quickly proved she deserved to be there with you.
Bro, you and this show has been a part of my life, my mom's life, and my cousins life. My mom passed away last year and one of the last things we watched together was Street Outlaws. She loved the show and just who you are. This would make her happy to see you standing up for the right thing. Hopefully one day I get the chance to meet you. Because of you drag racing became a big part of my life again. Much love from California, brother.
❤
🙏🏻🙏🏻
OMG what a joke. Drama queens. Life goes on without your hero
I'm OG Street Outlaws and to me that means "Big Chief". I respect you, I trust your word, I like you and feel like I know what kind of guy you are - a stand up racer with integrity who uses diplomacy to get through these tough life & work situations. We all know television show production will bleed you dry and walk you to the line of betraying who you are. To hell with fame - stay true to who you are. I won't watch SO without you but I'll be excited to see what the future holds for you and your beautiful girl. Stay cool!
This right here is why Big Chief is my favorite racer! You’re the man!
Go racing with jj tha boss and cry baby Kelly they be having fun as hell and way less drama
"IF YOU'RE STREET, BE STREET. IF YOU AIN'T, BE AIN'T." - Big Chief Keepin' it 100!!
Dude is 100% for sure, literally going back to his roots!
Real Talk!

@@edquinn7135 chiefs crow-mod/pro mod hasn't been ran in quite a few years.... Now if you're calling his gto or the vette or the caddy a "pro mod" you're just a fuckin putz lol.
None y’all have the real clue.
America fell in love with you big chief... we want to see you, we love the 405, but you're the leader, we wanna see you commentating/narrating so hopefully there is no street outlaws without you. Win lose or race Master we want you.
The show is just not the same without Big Chief. Been watching since day one.
Shout out and huge Thanks to Chief for bringing street racing into our homes. Glad to hear this is not the end of your journey and we will hopefully get to see you in other racing events, best wishes to you and yours on your next chapter.
Big Chief, you were the host from the beginning and you've done a great job. The popularity of the show was mainly because of your contributions.
For that stud breakage, I think that it was faulty from the start or else the nut was way over torqued at some point. The discoloration at the point of breakage indicates that there was cracking evident in the stud for a while, it probably felt spongy when the nut was torqued down and possibly may have never reached it's spec torque rate to begin with. Somebody either overlooked the issue or didn't give a shit.
The manufacturer really needs to see that thing and the rest of the studs on that engine, too. If it's an ARP piece, I know that they want to look at it, because I seriously doubt that it would have ever passed their quality control, but you never know, shit happens with mass produced products.
Good luck to you both and stay safe.
Arp are and arent mass produced, they only make a specific amount of orders for each company that puts in an order. So yea they sometimes mass produce but other times they might only make 100 bolts at a time.
That's the show I want to see. Chief and Jackie, traveling and racing people. If that means I have to watch it on RUclips, that's fine. I'll still be coming to Midwest to get a new shirt when I'm in okc
I'd like to see you guys do a drag week
@Big Dog that is exactly what I was thinking Caddy Jack on Drag week would be so cool
@@basedsalty6970 With caddy jack and the only reason I say caddyjack is because it is the most street drivable car of the 3
@@rossmagwood1381 I agree 👍
Good on you Chief ! Few people understand the importance of looking into the mirror in the morning and seeing a man staring back. Integrity is everything ! You are a good man.
Couldn't have said it better my friend only of more people knew 🤷♂️
You’ve got this channel to showcase your racing man. Everyone knows who started and built the brand. Every major company and brands think they get to important for the founder but soon find out that’s never the case. I’m excited to see the videos you guys will have time to do now. 🙌
Hey chief my name is Jerry H. I'm 73 years old and I love the show , I can't imagine outlaws without you. I'll watch whatever you guys put out, I was hoping to see you guys race the vet and caddie jack plus anything else you do. Stay true to yourself and you won't regret it . I think you did the right thing.
thank you jerry! we appreciate your support 🙏🏻
I think I speak for the majority of us here that you are the reason we started and still watch the show. You are the face of street outlaws and it’s not the same without you. As you have said before you sir are our ride or die. We will follow you where ever you go and decide to do. You guys should start streaming on twitch to allow us a way to interact and connect.
Hell yeah
If hes so "ride or die" how did his best friend walk away from him and their business.
@@BozoThaTroll they decided to go different ways as they wanted different things. Shaun wanted to build car, chief wanted to race.

But you should always follow your moral compass, good luck in all that you do, I'm sure you'll do just fine 😈 😁
thank you dennis! we appreciate it! 🙏🏼
Huge respect Chief!!!! I really do hope to see you back on the OG 405 show but if that isn't in the plans, I will keep following you on here or whatever platform. Enjoy watching you and The Crow run!!!!!
Man, hear me when I say it: You do what’s best for you and your loved ones. Ignore the hating comments. People who make negative hateful comments, hate themselves, not you. Love the RUclips channel. I like hearing you and Jackie laugh and work on cars!
I have always thought that what you do with that true Pontiac set up is more impressive than what the others are doing with their big pocketbooks. It is also a testament to your tuning skills and drive to succeed at making your car do work and compete at the highest level always. Keep it up buddy what your doing is working and when you show up to race you know you got everyone's attention and they know they better bring their lunch.
Stand for what you believe in and feel is right. Racing is blood deep and nothing is worth losing your soul my guy. Big respect
You’re my boy blue. The show sucks without you dude. Not looking forward to a show without you.
Chief, first off thank you for not compromising your integrity. Thank you for producing some excellent content for the last decade. Thank you for bringing street racing into the mainstream. Not one single person could say you weren’t for the street, you went from being the guy who put the show on to building your car(s) taking us through the tiny lense of your life and the personal sacrifices and gains. Thank you!
Also can we bring back the podcast now? 👀
Congratulations! I quit watching the show a while back because of all the drama. The show became a sitcom around the same time JJ showed up. The original street outlaws was the only street outlaws to me. Glad to see you stayed true to yourself and your passion! Don’t see that much in the world today. Best of luck in all you do. Can’t wait to see you both out there racing in the back of track and the many other street racing events. Love your channel! You have the best girlfriend a man could have! Congratulations to you both
I quit watching street outlaws cause chief is not there
Ya people like reaper wanted street outlaws to be what happens at every drag strip every weekend across America. And simply didn’t understand branding
@@Shawn-Leideryeah Lutz and Ryan too.
Me too mate.🏴👍🏻
True fans can tell exactly when the production took more control than letting the drivers. Cant wait to see what you have in store. Hell, we've watched everyone for so long that we feel like we know y'all (to a degree) Much respect
Thats right
Chief, we don't care what it is, we just wanna see racing. You've always been 100% about the racing, and that's why you have the following you do. Put the car in the box, make the haters kick rocks.
Clearly not.. or else he would have put his car in the box and raced?
@@joeyb7388 You clearly have no understanding of how not compromising your morals works.
The good thing about this deal is that you have a loyal fan base with or without the show. We will be here with you guys no matter what happens. You have to do what’s best for you!
I am one of many that have watched the show from day one and am a loyal follower of Big Chief and what he was trying to bring to the world of racing. I want you to know Big Chief I don't think the show will be the same without you nor will it ever if you do not come back and stand up for what you believe in and bring to the table what you always have. I'm glad you have declared your feelings in this video and explained yourself it really means a lot to a viewer like me. I'm super excited about your future and what you may bring to us as viewers soon. Looking forward to seeing it hope you and your family doing great nothing but love from The Smiths
I’m only 19min in and I just want to say, Chief you are the only reason this show has lasted this long. The viewers can tell how real you are tried to keep it. If the tv executives had full control, it would’ve crashed and burned a long time ago. Look at PINKS. We got a few good seasons and then it got watered down until it no longer existed. Chief you were the backbone of Street Outlaws and NO ONE could’ve done better
i agree fully.. I would add Monza and Dominator too they have stayed real to the street
Agreed 1000%
buttttttttttt since then it's like he never existed and it's actually probably better.
Still watch your stuff the new okc stuff is not the same without you.
Its seems in life there comes a time where everyone hits a crossroad. You took a high road and deserve the utmost respect. I watched this from day one and I love the street outlaws brand.
The arguing and drama is the main reason I don’t watch every episode like I used too. When the show first started and it was more about the racing and less about the drama I enjoyed it 100% more.
After watching the channel for the Last 11 months, I'm so glad you made this decision. Seeing you happy and sharing your knowledge with Jackie and us is amazing. Can't wait to see what this year brings!
Been following you since day 1.. street outlaws suck without you I follow you because your real and relatable to us smaller guys Im ready for some real street and no prep this year!!
Not "no prep" at a race track. Real street is highway racing. Trying to go somewhere for digs, lowkey..
I watch Gentry and sons also! Infact I'm subscribed been driven 23 year's buying anther truck 1st of April
Much love to you too Gentry watch your channel too
This is wild to see you here lol is Braxton ready for some racing this year???
So are you, keeping it real
Integrity isn't for sale. You're a stand up guy chief. I've watched you grow since day one. I hope you and Jackie take us along on your next adventure. Proud to say that I'm your fan.
I couldn't agree more....
Well said, well said
Me too amen brother!!!
Well said!
Well said
Season 1 was the best. Everyone seemed so real and enjoyed the hell out of what they did. Loved the pranks and wish everyone could have experienced more of Flip. Love you guys and keep standing up for what you believe in! After all that is why we are here with you!
It’s cool that you lay this out for everyone. You don’t even need to give an explanation, but you still do. It’s awesome to see how you never let any of the attention or fame change you.
Big Chief much respect.. Standing for what you believe in.. Hope to see you and the crow make a pass... God bless and stay safe sir..
Respect level just went up 10 fold..so cool seeing someone take a stance against bs and sticking to your true beliefs regardless of money and fame. You n Jackie have one of the best pages on RUclips and can't wait to see future videos
Bottom line with no Chief there would have been no show! Huge respect for him staying true to himself!
ruclips.net/video/JHphEDN2re8/видео.html
WHAT IS GODSY GARAGE ???
Stay True to yourself and stand up for what you believe in.
Way to go, much respect to you for standing up for what you believe in. Sure would be nice if you could start another show going back to the roots that was just awesome to watch. I used to never miss an OG street outlaws show and now i have lost all interest.
As someone who's been a part of "reality" TV before, I fully understand and feel for you. What most people don't get, is that they edit everything said into the way they want the end viewer to perceive it. They ask you questions in interviews, then tell you to repeat the question in your answer as if it was your idea to speak on it... I get it! At the end of the day, You brought street racing into the main stream, and you'll always be the chief of it all... not just the 405. There's lots of good racers that only a few of us knew about till you started a show 10 years ago. They all owe you for those sponsors they have now... at least in my opinion. Stay true to yourself, and everyone that matters will respect you for it.
Just like you told JJ when he rode the bumper of Ziptie 600ft, this video is “some of the real-est shit I’ve ever seen!”
And that’s why we love you and will follow you anywhere. Also, GREAT editing Jackie-keep em coming!
You're a stand up guy, Chief....clearly as real as it fuckin' gets and this proves it. *This* is what real integrity looks like....and we'll be watching whatever comes next with you and Jackie. "Cause it's been really great so far...

Real talk man!
I know what it's like to walk away from something u love because it has grown a direction that know longer works for you. Respect, Big Chief! On to your next chapter man.... Salute!
Hay Bro, your the Real OG and the show ain't the same without you and they can't call themselves the fastest without you there. So I'll keep watching whatever you posted kuz I enjoy you and Jackie videos and you guys are funny as hell. Peace Big O for St.Paul, MN

First off...I am a big fan of you, the other guys and gals, and the show(s).
So your basically saying your core set of values as a street racer were pushed so far out of bounds that you made a decision to stay true to yourself and your values.
Much respect sir.
Also I love the second half of the video on Jackie's car (head stud). I love watching races, but also love the technical side of watching you guys wrench on your cars.
Keep em coming! I'll subscribe.
Dude standing next to you not even realizing it at first in Dallas January even after moving 5 times all night long was awesome just seeing you an Jackie out in the real street her filming every pass that went down. That was it man your just a regular dude that loves racing just like us. Keep on keeping it real !
Bro
Keeping your HONOR has no value. Keeping your self-respect is even more important.
Much RESPECT brother, much respect.
Two weeks ago I stood up for myself and my coworkers against the monster I worked for. I took one for the team and lost my job because I refused to let my integrity be dragged through the dirt.
You did the same thing with the shows. You stood your ground and stood tall against the monster that the shows have become. We tip our hat to you and will gladly follow whatever the future holds for you.
You were always my favorite driver and most relatable person on the show. You are a stand up guy and really made the show what it is today. People don't realize that without the popularity of the midwest streetcar scene that you pretty much orchestrated there would be no street outlaws. I know that you will be successful in your future endeavors and I am a fan of you and not just because of racing but also the way you carry yourself and your values and morals. I will follow you on youtube and wish you much success. Street outlaws is getting watered down and they rather have characters than real racers with real values. Much respect to you Chief.
I wanna see you and Jackie take on a drag and drive event. Building a 6 second car that car drive 1000 miles on the street from track to track is not something a lot of people can do, and I think you and Jackie's dynamic would be incredible for a YT series. Get with some of the current car youtubers (ie Cleetus, Donut, 1320, Hoonigan, etc) and find someone to edit, or trade drag skill for editing skill lessons, lol. You can blow up on here (and other platforms), and never have anyone tell you what to do.
Seems like Drag n drive is the hot ticket now
I actually totally agree lol not only on the drag and drive, but their personalities on a RUclips channel with regular content would be equal parts entertainment and absolute hysterical
Completely agree. Awesome way to gain new fans and meet the fans. And a cool way for regular guys to rub shoulders with the "big dawgs".
Crowmod running 6s on dragweek would be cool as hell
@@390fe451 honestly I think the c3 corvette would make for a good drag and drive car
Justin, really did enjoy the OG show, love you and Mr. 187. Its funny to see how much everything has changed with all the shows that got produced where not that long ago y'all where open trailering to races. Now Toters/Semis rule the world, miss the early days.
Take care of yourself because no one else will.
Man I'm listener #13 from way back in the podcast days.
I gotta say keep your head up and continue to do you.
Me and my wife watch all your guys RUclips stuff, especially when you're teaching us tricks and tips.
I would love to hear more about the splitting the banks on nitrous set up.
thank you! more nitrous tuning coming for sure
Man I did my other comment before watching the whole video, and Wow I am fucking excited to see what's coming from you guys. No disrespect to the show but you can only watch the same dudes race each other over and over, now after the Americas list they got real housewives of street racing show!
Hell money wise there's some real dipshits that make good money on RUclips so you 2 will be fine.
I thought I was listener 13? 😉
Takes a real man to stand up for what they believe and follow what they feel is right. Even if others think different. You do you. Keep up the hard work and do what you feel is right.
He had a hurt car and found a way out lol wtf are you talking about? Everybody else stayed and raced...just sayin
@@joeyb7388 you obviously didn’t watch this video or the ones from when he was in Texas. The car wasn’t hurt.
@Joey B your a clown, the rest of them dudes are SELLOUTS, you know what that means?????
Time and time again whether it's on camera or off camera or whether you're the race master or just a participant it's always been about your integrity which has been the glue that I believe held the show together. It was never more apparent watching you handle some of the conflict that was ongoing during America's list. I think there needs to be more people like you that are willing to stand up for their beliefs regardless of the outcome. I hope you read this know that there is one fan that sees you clearly and loves everything you stand for dearly. ❤
Justin, you have had my respect since day one, today you really justified it.
This would be tearing up most of the other guys, but you are doing it on your terms.
"Build it and they will come".
So....build it again.
Respect.
There was life before street outlaws and there will be life after it! I'm a genuine fan of the show and anyone who has watched from the beginning will understand your decision to be a genuine one! Haters ain't real fans simple. Big respect to you guys.
Thanks alot of people been waiting for this video... Thanks for being real with us...and letting everyone know what's actually good...
I personally miss you being on the show. My son and I watch it regularly, of course we download your shows, we do not have cable and never will again LOL.
I figured the 405 guys would get together walk off the show with you. It is not fun anymore without you and Farm Truck and AZN trying to do their own show, failed. Why not bring back what was not broken . The list is where it was at, street racing NOT TRACK RACING. Honestly I skip over the boring track nonsense. Street racing is exciting and why I liked the weekly shows you guys did. I am 67 years old, I enjoyed racing stock cars with additiional tweaks we did. Seeing you guys with this new equipment going as fast as you do, it is just satisfying for me, thank you!!
STAND UP FOR WHAT YOIU BELIEVE IN OR YOU’LL FALL FOR ANYTHING BROTHER!!!!! YOU DO YOU AND LOVE DOING IT!!!! YOU AND JACKIE ARE MORE THAN QUALIFIED TO DO YOUR OWN THING AND ILL DAMN SURE WATCH MY FRIEND
Did you just quote John Mellencamp?
@@jkK-lw9lu damn I guess I didn’t even think about it until I read your comment 👌
Big Chief, you just earned a whole new level if respect from myself and alot of others. Staying true to yourself and racing instead of the fame and clout is a big man move and the world definitely needs more of that! Keep that same vibe and stay safe out there!
After I listened to this I have a higher respect for you for STANDING UP FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN AND HOW YOU STARTED. You do what is best for you. I am going to miss seeing you. I have been a fan since day one. Keep your head up, and be YOU. Best of luck Chief. And your words are true.
It's easy to walk away while you have over a million dollars in the bank.
Damn chief ,we loved the early street races ! I loved when your crew would travel to race other crews and visa versa ! That was local street racing ! The producers really screwed the show up .think about it J.J.the boss got his own show because of the 405 the original crew who exposed them. Keep on doing what your doing stay true to the street and your beliefs .that's real ! Not some bullshit producers vision .
Big Respect Big Chief keep it real that’s what it’s about 👍
Brother, you are the reason for what has brought drag racing back in general! Until STREET OUTLAWS, nobody gave a shit about NHRA.
You’re on some good drugs.
Well said
Thanks!
Thanks for the “real info”. Much respect! Miss seeing you and Jackie. Thank you for making this Texas Mom/Grandma a huge fan of Street Racing AND the Show!! Good luck, be happy, stay safe, continued prayers and blessings…God Bless!!
me and my family have been fans since day 1, and honestly we are glad to see you sticking too your morals. You always have to do what you feel is right in life, and we wish you all the best going forward. Thank you for all the joy and entertainment you've brought us over the last 10yrs!
You & Jackie do whatever you need to do to make yourselves happy. I just hope whatever you two decide to do next, you share it with us fans.
Amen. If I can't see Big Chief, it's hard to even watch. In fact, I pretty much quit watching everything now. Damn. Street racing has been in my blood since I could drive, but it's not the same without you and Jackie. I'll be watching for you though. Good luck, I know you'll be the BEST.
I’m 75 years old. Late 60’s early 70’s I spent a lot of time at NHRA events. Pro-stock was the best. Youz guys come along and rekindled my interest in a bunch of good guys, with good cars and bingo…….. interest rekindled. Thanks Pal.
Glad you came out and told what was on your mind. Sometimes you just have to do what’s best for you. Been watching those shows since the beginning and you always did it right. I hate that it’s come to this but I’m glad you stood up for what you want. Ready for you to race in Georgia. We have lots of asphalt!
I don't usually comment on videos but I felt like I had to this time. It is really good to see you sticking to your morals and doing what's right for you and what's helps you sleep better at night. There will always be hate. you can't please everyone but I promise as long as you keep doing you you will be just fine. Need more people like you two for our young ones to learn from.
big chief you are a inspiration to a lot of people including myself, I always knew you were the real deal and I'm proud of the fact your standing up for what you think is right and what is real!
with that said I hope to god the network would show you the respect you deserve for making street racing what is is today. thank you and hope to see your future indevers either on tv or here on RUclips
Would love to see you & Jackie get a show of your own on Discovery. Maybe going around & helping other up & coming drag racers. Just a thought.
I’ve always been behind you chief, it’s about racing and who can win on the street, not about making a tv show. Racing comes first and the cameras just get to tag along, that’s how it should be.
America’s List isn’t nearly as good without you! We love the other racers, but you are the biggest part and what drew us into the show initially. You and Jackie are just so great. You always try to be fair and you are such a great personality! Missing you so much!!!
Agree...Ive been bummed out all week about not getting to watch BIG CHIEF race on monday nights....Not watching that channel ever again!
CAN ONLY BE 1 RACEMASTER, BIG CHIEF THE 1 AND ONLY CHOICE....THAT AINT NO BULL
Who's "us".
You speaking for the whole country?
Except the part he cheated on his wife and abandon his kids .. ya great guy
@@MD-th9sndon't bring personal life into this. 90% of relationships wouldn't make it in that situation. Street outlaws was one of the hottest shows when it dropped and chief was the star of the show. If you think it's all rainbows your trippin. He got a ton of money and fame and got it stupid quick I'm sure he made some bad decisions but that's his personal life there's no reason to bring that up. If you watch the show you can see it took a toll on his wife and he was more focused on racing and the show then her. Shit happens man not everyone is perfect but he's grown from then and is clearly healthier and on the road to be happier. We all look back 10-20 years ago and wish we could be there but we can't. His personal life has no bearing on his position in the show so theres no reason to bring it up on this video. Not to mention u have no idea what's true and what's not so don't speak on it.
I started watching you and the 405 since the beginning. I lived in and ran a Foster Home and watched with my kids. It's been an absolute pleasure watching you guys over the years. Thank you for everything! My kids loved watching the show. I adopted one of those boys in 2016 who lost his Father at the age of 8. Most of what he remembers about his Dad is working on cars. To say we've loved the show over the years is an understatement. We understand the position you're in and although not happy about not being able to watch you in these shows we look forward to catching up with you , Jackie and the Crow down the road. Wishing you all the best. Seth and Alex.
You and flip are the reason I started watching street outlaws! Much respect for staying true to yourself! That original crow was the best car! Keep racing and winning guy!
