The reality TV community is reeling in shock after the devastating loss of Nathan Schaldach, aka Cali Nate, a star of the Discovery series Street Outlaws. Schaldach’s life was tragically cut short in a car accident while racing in southwest Texas.
His heartbroken girlfriend, Courtney Paulshock, took to Facebook to share the heartbreaking news, describing Schaldach as her “soul mate.” In a poignant message, Paulshock expressed her shock and grief, saying, “I’m not complete… my heart feels like it’s breaking.”
The accident occurred on a Saturday night, and despite his friends’ efforts to rush him to the hospital, Schaldach succumbed to his injuries. Paulshock revealed that Schaldach had been racing near Eagle Pass, about two hours west of San Antonio, but was unable to disclose further details about the crash.
Schaldach’s passion for racing was evident to those who knew him, and his girlfriend fondly remembered how he “followed his passions outside” and “showed me every day” the kind of love he had to give. The Street Outlaws community has been left reeling from the loss of one of their own, with many taking to social media to pay tribute to Schaldach’s memory.
This tragic incident serves as a stark reminder of the risks involved in professional racing. Schaldach’s untimely death follows that of fellow Street Outlaws star Ryan Fellows, who lost his life in a car accident while filming the show in 2022.
As the news of Schaldach’s passing continues to spread, fans and friends alike are sharing their condolences and memories of the beloved reality TV star. His legacy will undoubtedly live on through the countless lives he touched, both on and off the racing track.
