For those who have followed Monza's journey, this decision may not come as a complete surprise. He had hinted at the possibility of stepping away, especially after missing out on last season's No Prep Kings due to financial considerations and other personal factors. Monza had invested heavily in a new car, the Chevelle, which sadly never hit the track under competitive conditions.
Recent developments have brought clarity to his decision. Monza shared on his Facebook page, Team Monza 405, that due to unforeseen circumstances involving his dog's health taking a turn for the worse, he has chosen to prioritize his family. This heartfelt decision means bidding farewell to racing, including any future involvement with Street Outlaws.

His presence will surely be missed in the racing community, where Monza's skill and passion for the sport have left an indelible mark. Despite the challenges and setbacks, fans rallied around him, evident in the overwhelming support his car, the Sinister Split Bumper Camaro, received during a recent fan voting tournament.
Monza expressed gratitude for the love and support from fans, acknowledging that the decision was not easy. It reflects a shift in priorities towards family well-being, a sentiment that resonates deeply with those who understand the sacrifices and demands of competitive racing.
