RIP Chad McQueen

Chad McQueen was Steve McQueen's son, a motorcycle rider -motocross-and racer (Baja 1000), actor, known best from The Karate Kid film (1984) and its sequel and the B action movie Firepower (1993). He was a champion at the World Mini Grand Prix when he was  12. 

He was 63...

Obit here.

Also Steve McQueen, who died in 1980 at 50 !!! would've been, if alive, 94 this year....Just recently I re-watched The Getaway and The Thomas Crown Affair (which streams now on Max).  Soon need to see again Papillon...McQueen though lives Forever you see his films, and every moment someone does!


Steve and son during the shooting of Le Mans (1971).

When his father was filming the 1971 racing film "Le Mans," Chad would famously sit perched on his father's lap behind the wheel of a Porsche 917 reaching speeds of over 100 mph at just 10 years old.
