The Street Outlaws world is heating up, and this weekend’s Lights Out 16 at South Georgia Motorsports Park is set to bring some serious action. Several Street Outlaws favorites have been spotted testing for the big event, including Daddy Dave, who has his NPK Audi dialed in for No Time 275 competition.

For those who follow the no-time scene, you know that this class is all about high stakes and big payouts. Unlike other races where ETs and speeds are displayed for everyone to see, No Time events keep the numbers a mystery. The secrecy fuels excitement and ensures a level playing field for racers competing in these high-dollar shootouts. One key rule? You can’t publicly post a time from the current or previous year if you want to race in No Time competitions.
Daddy Dave’s History with 275 Racing
This isn’t Daddy Dave’s first rodeo with 275 racing. Back in 2017, he ran Goliath in No Time 275, proving that he could make waves in the small-tire scene. Fast forward to 2024, and he’s back at it—this time with his wicked-fast NPK Audi, now set up to dominate on 275 radials.

Judging by his latest test pass, the Audi is looking strong. He recently posted a video on Facebook showcasing the car’s performance on 275s, and let’s just say it’s moving. The NPK cars have already shown they can handle radial racing, with Justin Swanstrom proving that transition is possible. Now, Daddy Dave is making his own mark in the No Time world.
What Makes No Time 275 So Competitive?
The No Time 275 class isn’t just another small-tire class—it’s a battleground for some of the most well-known names in racing. With fewer restrictions than Pro 275, racers can shed weight, optimize power, and push their combinations to the limit. Screw blowers can run various overdrive levels, and ProCharger setups have a lot of freedom as well, making for an intense level of competition.

With Daddy Dave’s Audi now optimized for 275 radials, he’s making the necessary adjustments, including changes to the rear end, converter, and freshening up the motor. Though it’s the same combination he’s used in NPK, it’s set to perform even better in No Time trim. And given his track record, there’s no doubt he’ll be a serious contender in this weekend’s event.
Who Else Will Be in the Mix?
Daddy Dave isn’t the only heavy hitter heading into Lights Out 16. Justin Swanstrom, Todd Ardron, and possibly Kye Kelley are also expected to make an appearance in the No Time 275 class. With a lineup like that, fans can expect nothing less than all-out war on the track.
As the weekend unfolds, all eyes will be on Daddy Dave and his Audi to see how it stacks up against the best in the game. Will he take home the win in one of the most competitive No Time classes? One thing’s for sure—it’s going to be an action-packed showdown you won’t want to miss.
