Why Big Chief Left Street Outlaws
When Big Chief stepped away from Street Outlaws and its popular spin-offs like No Prep Kings and America’s List, it stirred up a lot of rumors. Some speculated that a falling out with fellow cast member Precious Cooper might have played a role. However, Big Chief later addressed the issue himself, clearing up the rumors.
In a candid video on his YouTube channel, Midwest Street Cars, he explained that his decision to leave was mostly due to creative differences. He felt the show was drifting too far from its original focus on real street racing and becoming overly dramatized, which didn’t sit well with him. While his love for street racing hasn’t changed, he wanted the show to stay authentic, which was no longer the case in his eyes.
Life After Street Outlaws
Since his departure, Big Chief has focused on his own projects, particularly his business, Midwest Street Cars, and his YouTube channel, where he shares updates on his street racing adventures. His channel has become a go-to spot for fans eager to stay connected with his latest endeavors. Outside of social media, he’s still very much involved in the racing scene, continuing to race and fine-tune his famous car, The Crow, in the Oklahoma 405 racing circuit.
