Some celebrity deaths are so vital that it has us think about them even years after the tragedy happened. <\/span>One of those celebrity deaths for us has been Flip<\/strong> from ‘Street Outlaws<\/em>.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Who was Flip? What Happened to Him?<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Most people may not have heard the name Tyler Gene Priddy, but you may have heard his racing name, Flip. He was initially set to be a cast member of ‘Street Outlaws.’<\/span><\/p>\n

The sad reason Flip never appeared in the series is that he died on May 28, 2013<\/em>, in Yukon, Oklahoma. <\/span>‘Street Outlaws’ racer’s funeral was held a few days later, on June 1<\/em>, the same year.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yes, it was also the same year that ‘Street Outlaws’ first premiered. <\/span>In fact, Flip passed away just a few weeks before the premiere, and that is why Flip only made it to a few appearances in the first season and never raced again.<\/span><\/p>\n

The racer was only 31<\/em> years old at the time of his death.<\/span><\/p>\n

How did Flip Pass Away?<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Flip’s death was widely covered, but sadly the exact cause of Tyler Priddy’s death remains a mystery. <\/span>We do know a few facts from fiction on the case, though.<\/span><\/p>\n

Firstly, given that Flip was a drag racer, people have attributed his death to be somehow related to a fatal accident, which is not uncommon in street racing. <\/span>However, it turned out to be nothing but a baseless rumor.<\/span><\/p>\n

Similarly, reports suggesting that Flip took his own life were also false rumors. <\/span>People suspected that Flip committed suicide after his wife, Morgan, has been vocal about the mentally unhealthy act.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Suicide is so often swept under the rug and I’m ready to share with the world how it shouldn’t be,” she was recorded saying, but her speaking out on a very common issue does not naturally link it to her husband’s death.<\/span><\/p>\n

It has become even less credible after more false details like Flip suffering from depression. Or finding out about his wife’s affair has latched on to the suicide rumors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some sources even went as far as to proclaim that Flip died of a self-inflicted gunshot injury after getting drunk. <\/span>Just because we cannot find out the exact cause of death about Flip does not mean we will be desperate enough to believe any of these baseless and false stories.<\/span><\/p>\n

Flip’s Short Bio.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Flip was born on November 30, 1981<\/em>, in Chickasha, Oklahoma. <\/span>He was a student at Hinton Elementary School and a graduate of Putnam City High School. <\/span>He was good friends with Justin’ Big Chief’ Shearer from childhood, with a common love for muscle cars leading them together to the street racing scene in Oklahoma.<\/span><\/p>\n

His first job was as a storekeeper, followed by ten years of work with heavy construction equipment dealing company, Warren Caterpillar. <\/span>He slowly saved enough money to build a car and pursue a racing career.<\/span><\/p>\n

Flip’s Car, Career & Net Worth.<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

His ride was an El Camino called ‘The Old Slut’ because it was built with begged, borrowed, and stolen parts. <\/span>It was an unpredictable machine that could blow up at any point in time, but Flip could win races with it even against the likes of $100,000<\/em> cars.<\/span><\/p>\n

The El Camino had garnered a reputation continued by Flip’s longtime friend Chris Day aka, Kamikaze, who brought the Camino back from Big Chief, who kept it for safekeeping for a year.<\/span><\/p>\n

Flip’s headstone on his grave also bears the likeness of the Camino to give you an idea of how much he loved the car. <\/span>Flip’s career as a racer can be recognized by how his tribute played out in his funeral.<\/span><\/p>\n

A large mass of Drag racers and other car fanatics gathered a few weeks after his funeral and organized a massive tire burnout in his memory. <\/span>Sadly, his life was too short and early for us to compute net worth.<\/span><\/p>\n

Flip’s Married Life & Wife.<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Flip was a family man and thus left behind an entire family, including his loving wife, Morgan Amber Priddy. <\/span>Morgan got a tattoo of a skull and scroll on top of her wings tattoo in memory of her late husband.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 31<\/em>-year-old also a father of 4<\/em> children; Tovey Gene, Remey J, Dresdyn Rinot, and Bennett William Edward, who go by the nicknames; Rito, Flemerson, Day Day, and Baby B that he gave them.<\/span><\/p>\n

We hope that the legendary racer is currently in heaven, racing against God.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
