During the course of the fifth season of Street Outlaws Memphis, and thanks in part to her husband's alleged back injury, Chelsea Day has become a much more present face on the program and opened up a lot more to fans who are curious about who exactly she is. Born on Jan. 12, 1994, Chelsea is 27 years old and the proud mother of two children, Kamden, 6, and Novaleigh, 4.

Chelsea married fellow street racer Joshua "Doughboy" Day on Sep. 20, 2015, and it's clear that the duo has quite a strong bond as Joshua even has Chelsea's name tattooed on him. Aside from their two young children, Chelsea and Joshua are also the parents of a dog named Bane, who joined the family back in 2017.

As she has described on Street Outlaws Memphis, racing runs in the Day family, and she took to the sport from a young age. Nicknamed "Chelarilla," Chelsea's affinity for racing began before she even took the wheel of her own car.
Indeed, she used to help her older sister and fellow famed racer, Precious Cooper, prepare for races. It's unclear when exactly Chelsea began racing on her own, but photos of her at street races on Instagram date back to 2013.

As the years went on and she spent more time surrounded by racers, Chelsea cultivated her own skills as a driver and now pilots a turquoise muscle car named TomKat, which has led her to many victories. It seems like she has also may have recently purchased another race car, a white 1973 Camaro, per another social media post.
Chelsea, alongside Precious, Joshua, JJ Da Boss, and Mallory Gulley, make up Team MSO. Their racing squad is one of the most respected groups to emerge from the Memphis area, and JJ's skills in cultivating and empowering women to race have proven fruitful for their entire team, as fans of Street Outlaws Memphis know.
