Early Life

Jonathan Day otherwise known as JJ Da Boss was born on the 10th of August 1973 at St. Joseph Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. Born in Memphis, JJ later moved to Joiner, Arkansas, and spent much of his early life in the city. He attended the Rivercrest High School and graduated in 1992. JJ comes from humble beginnings and his parents often worked in construction. JJ’s love for racing arose after watching his father and uncle competing in several races. JJ comes from a family of racers and is known for his real steel-bodied cars. JJ didn’t go to college and chose to pursue his work in race cars.

On the other side of the law

Early on in his career, JJ was arrested by the federal authorities in response to a federal complaint filed by Chad and Genny Larkin. The lawsuit was filed in the Tenessee High Court. Chad and Genry charged JJ with counts of bodily harm and several other claims. The lawsuit found JJ to be guilty and sentenced him to prison for eight years. JJ was also charged on several other accounts including his street racing endeavors. When asked about his time in prison, JJ often mentions that his desire to provide everything for his family led him down the path.

Getting out

After getting out of prison JJ decided to turn over a new leaf. He returned to the world of street racing and was later snapped up by the reality TV series, Street Outlaws: Memphis. The series first aired on the 15th of January 2018 and JJ is the only permanent cast member. With a crew comprised of family, JJ takes on challenges from racers looking to taste the thrill of Memphis. After all, JJ and his family are nothing sort of legendary when it comes to street racing in Memphis.

The man is said to have 11 children from different marriages.

Who drives what?

JJ Da Boss, the fastest man and the biggest gambler on the streets of Memphis, is back and ready to race. He has his family by his side, as well as his loyal crew of street racers. He is determined to dominate the competition like he did in his early years of hustling. He introduced his crew members and their cars in a past interview saying:

“Tricia, she drives Heifer, that’s my car. Precious drives Ole Heavy. That’s my truck. And then there’s Jeffrey James who drives Big Block Killer. Jason Carpenter, he drives Sexy the Camero. Lee Roberts, he drives Night Force. Anthony Smith drives Hercules. Kenneth Gulley drives Bounty Hunter. Jason Ainsworth drives Prosecutor.”

Controversy

One of the most serious controversies that JJ Da Boss faced was a lawsuit filed by another racer, Chad Larkin, who claimed that JJ Da Boss and his associates assaulted him during a race in 2018. Larkin alleged that JJ Da Boss invited him to a race in Memphis for a cash prize, but then attacked him with kicks and punches after he defended himself from verbal abuse. Larkin said he feared for his life and suffered multiple injuries, including a chipped tooth, a black eye, and a herniated disk. He sued JJ Da Boss, the Discovery Channel, and the production company for negligence, assault, battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

JJ Da Boss denied the allegations and said that Larkin was the one who started the fight by disrespecting him and his crew. He said that Larkin was a sore loser who could not handle the pressure of street racing. He also claimed that Larkin was trying to get fame and money by exploiting his name and reputation. He filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, arguing that Larkin signed a waiver that released him from any liability for injuries or damages that might occur during the race.

Later, the lawsuit was eventually settled out of court , with both parties agreeing to drop their claims and pay their own legal fees. The terms of the settlement were not disclosed to the public. Neither JJ Da Boss nor Larkin commented on the outcome of the case.

Another controversy that JJ Da Boss faced was a car crash that he and his wife Tricia were involved in on January 12, 2022. The couple were reportedly filming the second season of Street Outlaws: America’s List when their cars collided with other vehicles on the road. JJ Da Boss suffered burns on his hands and face, while Tricia sustained hip injuries that required surgery. Their cars, Ziptie and Hummingbird, were severely damaged in the accident.

The cause of the crash is still unknown, but some fans speculated that it might have been due to mechanical failure, driver error, or interference from other drivers. JJ Da Boss and Tricia have not spoken publicly about the incident.
