Known for his role in the famous franchise, Chad played Dutch in the original 1984 film and reprised his role in the 1986 sequel “The Karate Kid II.”

While he was rumored to be reprising his role in Netflix’s “Karate Kid” series “Cobra Kai,” his attorney revealed he didn’t join the series stars for the show’s final season.

He also starred in the 1993 film, “Firepower.”

When he wasn’t starring in Hollywood films, he competed in various racing competitions including the Baja 1000 and Motocross.

At age 12, he won the World Mini Grand Prix.

“His passion for racing not only highlighted his exceptional talent but also served as a way to honor his father’s legacy, a testament to the values instilled in him.”

“He passed his passion, knowledge and dedication down to us, and we will continue not only his legacy but our grandfather’s as well. As a family, we need to navigate this difficult time, and we kindly ask for privacy as we remember and celebrate his extraordinary life,” the statement closed.
