  • Daddy Dave Goes Twin Turbo for No Prep Kings Season 7!

    Hey there, fellow street racing enthusiasts! Welcome back to Street Outlaws Talk, your go-to source for all the latest gossip and updates from the world of street racing. Today, we've got some exciting news to share about none other than Daddy Dave gearing up for No Prep Kings Season 7 with a brand new twin turbo setup! Photo by Marcos Machado In a surprising twist, Daddy Dave has decided to make the switch back to twin turbos for the upcoming season of No Prep Kings. Now, if you're a fan like me, you're probably itching to get a glimpse of this new setup. Unfortunately, we haven't seen any photos yet, but rest assured, they're bound to surface soon. So, what led Daddy Dave to make this switch? Well, according to his recent Facebook post, while they did stack some weight on the 136 pro charger, they also took weight out of the 140. And guess what? The pro charger guys aren't too upset about it because the 140 got a sweet 25-pound weight break. But regardless of the weight adjustments, it looks like Daddy Dave is ready to turbocharge his way to victory. Now, the big question on everyone's mind is: how will the twin turbos fare on the No Prep Kings track? As we all know, the second half of the track isn't as sticky as a fully prepped surface, which could pose a challenge for turbo-powered cars. However, with Scott Taylor already making waves with his twin turbos, there's hope that Daddy Dave will follow suit and dominate the competition. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography But enough about Daddy Dave, let's talk about what else we can expect from No Prep Kings Season 7. With the season kicking off today, anticipation is running high. While we're still in the dark about the exact format of the races, we've already got some exciting developments on the horizon. For starters, Alex Laughlin has built a new car for No Prep Kings, adding even more excitement to the mix. And with the competition fiercer than ever before, this season promises to be one for the books. As always, we'll be keeping you updated with all the latest news and race results from No Prep Kings Season 7. Be sure to stay tuned to Street Outlaws Talk, as well as our friends over at Street Outlaws That Guy and Upshift, for all the juicy details.

  • Jim Howe Unveils Game-Changing Partnership and New Combo for NPK Season 7!

    Jim Howe, the man of few words when it comes to his racing secrets, has finally spilled the beans about his latest powerhouse combination for the upcoming season of No Prep Kings. And let us tell you, it's nothing short of epic! After keeping us all on the edge of our seats with hushed murmurs and speculation, Jim has officially joined forces with none other than PJS Racing, the brainchild of the legendary Brandon Pez and his powerhouse family. If you know anything about these guys, you know they're not messing around when it comes to making serious power. Photo by Howe Motorsports So, what's the big reveal? Jim's new ride boasts a brand-spanking-new PJS motor, but here's the kicker—it's not your typical Hemi or 41x engine. Jim affectionately refers to it as an AMC motor, and it's a game-changer. Why? Because it's eligible for a whopping 100-pound weight break on NPK Season 7. That's like having a built-in advantage before the race even starts! With his previous setup, Jim had to tip the scales at 2775 pounds. But with this new beast under the hood, he's shedding weight faster than a cheetah on a diet, coming in at a svelte 2675 pounds. And get this—he can still run a mind-boggling 98% overdrive. That's some serious speed potential right there. Photo by Howe Motorsports This bad boy can rev all the way up to 11,000 RPM, and when you pair that with a 98% overdrive, you're talking about enough boost to make your head spin faster than a drag racer off the line. And let's not forget about Jim's new teammates. Last season, we saw Chuck 55 tearing up the track with Brandon Pesz and the whole PJS Racing Engines crew, and did they make some noise. Now, with Jim in the mix, you can bet your bottom dollar that they're going to be a force to be reckoned with. Speaking of noise, have you seen the video of Jim's new combo in action? Despite less-than-ideal conditions, this monster clocked in at a blistering 940s to the 60t. And if he can pull off those numbers in less-than-perfect conditions, just imagine what he'll do when the weather's on his side. Video by Howe Motorsports Now, what about the competition? Well, rumor has it that Justin Swanstrom, Murder Nova, and Ryan are all running 920s or faster. But here's the thing—Jim's proving that even in rough air, he's a force to be reckoned with. So, when the conditions are right, you better believe he's going to give those guys a run for their money. And guess what? The wait is almost over. This weekend, we kick off NPK Season 7 at Maple Grove, and it's going to be one hell of a show. Sure, some racers might be sitting this one out, but that just means more action for the rest of us. Video by Howe Motorsports So, mark your calendars, because tomorrow and Saturday, we're in for a wild ride. Get ready to witness some of the fastest, most intense racing you've ever seen, because NPK Season 7 is about to blow the doors off the competition. See you at the finish line!

  • NPK 6 Is Not Airing - Where Has It Gone?

    In the world of street racing aficionados, frustration is reaching a boiling point. For those eagerly awaiting the return of Street Outlaws to their TV screens, the lack of updates is akin to being left in the dark. It's a sentiment echoed by many, as each passing day seems to bring no new news—just the same old silence. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography As the clock ticks on Tuesday night, April 16th, enthusiasts had hoped for a glimmer of hope. Perhaps today would be the day when the TV guide for Tuesday, April 30th, would finally unveil the anticipated return of Street Outlaws. Yet, much like the disappointment of the previous Monday, April 29th, the lineup remains devoid of our beloved show. Instead, viewers are treated to a roster dominated by Moonshiners and Mud Madness—a far cry from the adrenaline-fueled action of Street Outlaws. What's particularly irksome is the apparent attempt to shift focus onto Mud Madness, potentially positioning it as a replacement for Street Outlaws. Utilizing the show's social media platforms to promote these alternatives only adds insult to injury for dedicated fans eagerly anticipating the return of their favorite program. In an era where communication is paramount, the absence of updates feels like a betrayal to the loyal fanbase. In other industries, such as gaming, transparency and engagement are recognized as essential elements in maintaining enthusiasm. Yet, as we find ourselves one-third into the year, Street Outlaws enthusiasts are left hanging, with no insight into when their beloved show will make its triumphant return. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography Gone are the days of speculation about release dates. Many had placed their bets on April, aligning with the anticipated debut of No Prep Kings Season 7. However, as April bids adieu, the silence surrounding Street Outlaws remains deafening. For fans who have stood by the show through triumphs and tribulations, the lack of communication feels like a slight. After over a decade of unwavering support, the least they ask for is a semblance of acknowledgment—a simple assurance that Street Outlaws hasn't faded into obscurity. To those responsible for the fate of Street Outlaws, the plea is clear: provide the fans with something, anything, to hold onto. Whether it's a hint of what's to come or a vague promise of the show's return, transparency is key in appeasing a fanbase that's grown increasingly restless. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography As the anticipation mounts and patience wears thin, Street Outlaws fans remain steadfast in their hopes for a resolution. Until then, the silence continues, leaving enthusiasts in a state of limbo, eagerly awaiting news of their beloved show's return.

JJ Da Boss, known to the world as Jonathan Day, has etched his mark in the echelons of fame through his ventures on Discovery Channel's "Street Outlaws Memphis." Photo by Memphis Street Racer JJdaBoss Born on August 10th, 1973, at St. Joseph's Memorial Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, Jonathan's genesis was amidst the heartland of underground street racing. Growing up amidst the rolling hills of Joiner, Arkansas, Jonathan's roots intertwined with the fervor of Pentecostal faith, nurtured by his mother's beliefs. Even in his tender years, he found himself drawn to the allure of fast cars, accompanying his father and uncle to witness their adrenaline-fueled escapades on the asphalt. By the age of 10, he was already tearing through the back roads of his rural hometown, a budding racer in the making. Yet, the seduction of the streets proved treacherous, leading him down a path veiled in shadows, culminating in an 8-year sojourn within the confines of federal prison walls. But from the depths of adversity emerged a resolve as Jonathan seized a newfound lease on life upon his release. Immersing himself in his lifelong passion for cars, he transcended from a hobbyist to a maestro, dedicating his days to resurrecting the relics of automotive history amidst the provincial landscape of Joiner. Seeking solace in the roar of engines, Jonathan ventured beyond the confines of his small-town persona. Street racing, gambling, and hustling became his chosen pursuits, sculpting him into the sharp-witted, fast-talking individual known as JJ Da Boss.

Delving deeper into the clandestine world of Memphis street racing, his reputation burgeoned, establishing him as a luminary within the community. Catching the discerning eye of the Discovery Channel, the birth of "Street Outlaws Memphis" heralded a new chapter in Jonathan's saga, catapulting him into the limelight, a stark juxtaposition to his humble beginnings.

Together, they navigate the twists and turns of life, providing mutual support amidst the chaos of the racing world. However, JJ Da Boss's journey has not been without its share of trials. In 2017, a car accident left him battered and bruised, serving as a poignant reminder of the inherent risks of his chosen profession. Despite adversity, he persevered, founding Spin City, a street race scene that bears testament to his indomitable spirit. Yet, JJ Da Boss's life is not devoid of controversy. Accusations of assault have tarnished his reputation, and legal disputes have added a layer of complexity to his narrative, underscoring the precarious balance between fame and infamy. In essence, JJ Da Boss's story is one of resilience, passion, and the relentless pursuit of dreams amidst the high-octane world of street racing.

  • New Rule Changes Bring Excitement to No Prep King Season 7!

    Exciting news is revving up the engines in the world of No Prep Kings! Doc just dropped some knowledge bombs on his Facebook page, giving us a sneak peek into the fresh rules shaking things up for Season 7. Photo by Street Beast "Doc" So, what's the deal? It looks like there's a new rule in town, and it's got everyone buzzing. Picture this: you can now crank up your overdrive, but there's a catch—you'll have to lug around some extra weight. Doc spilled the beans, explaining that racers can opt for a higher overdrive, but they'll have to slap on an additional 50 lbs of metal to their rides. Now, for those of you wondering about the nitty-gritty, here it is straight from the horse's mouth. The current minimum weight sits at a beefy 2825 lbs, with racers cruising at 98% overdrive. But if you're not rocking a lockup, you can shave off 50 lbs. And if you're rolling in an old-school whip like Doc's, you catch a break and only drop 25 lbs. Nice, right? Photo by Street Beast "Doc" Doc spilled the beans about transmissions, too. If you're running a Turbo 400-style setup, you're in luck. Those Liberty transmissions? Well, they come with a penalty, so leave 'em at home if you want to keep it light. This means some cars can weigh in as light as 2750 lbs. Now, here's where it gets juicy. Doc's beast of a car is tipping the scales at a hefty 2850 lbs. That's a hundred pounds heavier than the current rules allow, putting him at a serious disadvantage. With everyone else running at 98% overdrive, Doc might struggle to keep up. Photo by Street Beast "Doc" But fear not, there's a silver lining. Rumor has it that racers can now push their overdrive to a whopping 108%, thanks to the new rule tweak. That means more boost, more power, and more speed. And let's talk numbers for a second—two to three extra pounds of boost could mean a staggering 150 to 200 extra horses under the hood. Now, that's what we call a boost! What does all this mean for the race? Well, if your ride's on the heavy side, you can crank up the overdrive and level the playing field. It's a win-win situation—more weight means more power, and more power means more speed. It's like leveling up in a video game, but with real-life horsepower. So, is this the real deal? Doc seems pretty convinced, and it sure makes sense. Plus, it's about time the underdogs got a chance to shine. With these new rules, older cars like Doc's might just have a shot against the sleek, lightweight machines dominating the track. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography So buckle up, No Prep Kings Season 7 is about to kick into high gear, and things are about to get wild. Stay tuned for all the action, because it's gonna be one hell of a ride.

  • Navigating the Evolution of Street Outlaws: A Candid Discussion!

    With the announcement of Street Outlaws Versus the World Part 2 and the introduction of No Prep Kings Canada, enthusiasts are buzzing with excitement. These initiatives represent bold steps forward in expanding the reach of Street Outlaws, but they also prompt us to pause and consider the broader picture. Photo by Mellie Photos Street Outlaws Canada, in particular, stands out as a strategic move. Following the success of ventures like the Australian edition of No Prep Kings, Canada offers a compelling destination that is both logistically feasible and brimming with potential. By tapping into the Canadian fanbase, Street Outlaws continues to demonstrate its ability to evolve while captivating audiences worldwide. However, amidst the excitement surrounding these grand endeavors, there looms a concern—the diminishing focus on the grassroots street racing scene. Street Outlaws' origins lie in the raw and unfiltered world of street racing culture, a world that has captured the imagination of fans since its inception. Yet, with the spotlight increasingly shifting towards larger-scale events, there's a sense that the essence of street racing is fading into the background. Photo by Street Outlaws Undeniably, No Prep Kings has emerged as a powerhouse, drawing crowds and commanding attention both on-screen and in-person. The adrenaline-fueled action and star-studded lineups have propelled the series to new heights. But as the emphasis on such events grows, questions arise about the fate of the street shows—the heart and soul of Street Outlaws. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography Enter Boosted and the anticipation surrounding his upcoming show. For many, it represents a beacon of hope for the future of street racing on Street Outlaws. Yet, there's an underlying uncertainty. Will Boosted's venture reignite the passion for street racing, or will it falter in the face of evolving preferences? As we navigate these changes, one thing is clear: the future of Street Outlaws hangs in the balance. While the allure of No Prep Kings is undeniable, it's essential not to lose sight of the roots that have made Street Outlaws a cultural phenomenon. The decision to prioritize one over the other may shape the trajectory of the sport for years to come.

  • Big Chief's Bold Move: Unveiling the "New" Engine

    In the realm of high-octane racing and roaring engines, the spotlight once again shines on Big Chief, a name synonymous with the heart of street racing. Today, we dive deep into his latest endeavor, a move that has piqued the curiosity of enthusiasts everywhere: the unveiling of his purportedly "new" motor. But before we jump in, let's peel back the layers of this supposed novelty. Photo by Midwest Street Cars The term "new" might be a bit misleading, for what we're witnessing isn't the birth of an entirely fresh engine. Instead, Big Chief has chosen to resurrect one of the relics from the annals of street racing history—the engine that once powered the legendary Crow circuit back in 2017. Ah, the memories of that aluminum marvel! Many anticipated a seismic shift, perhaps a switch to the Hemi or a daring embrace of the 41x. But to their surprise, Big Chief opted to stick with the tried-and-tested Pontiac's humble inline head. Some might raise an eyebrow or two, but let's unravel the logic behind this choice. First and foremost, let's align our expectations with reality. Big Chief isn't chasing NPK glory or carving his name on the glossy tracks of elite competition. No, his heart beats to the rhythm of the streets. He's a renegade, a maverick of the asphalt, and his allegiance lies with the raw pulse of street racing. Photo by Midwest Street Cars Sure, he's dabbled in the NPK scene, securing victories and etching his name in drag racing history. But strip away the glitz and glamour, and you'll find a racer who thrives in the unadulterated chaos of the streets. On the streets, speed isn't measured in sheer velocity or blistering lap times—it's about finesse, instinct, and a deep-rooted understanding of the asphalt beneath your tires. So, while the procharged Hemi might boast unparalleled power and a symphony of exhaust notes, Big Chief has honed his craft elsewhere. With his trusty Pontiac engine, he waltzes through the concrete jungles, navigating the twists and turns with the grace of a seasoned veteran. But let's address the elephant in the room: the question of competitiveness. Can Big Chief's concoction hold its ground in the cutthroat world of NPK racing? It's a valid concern, one that lingers in the minds of many. After all, the competition is fierce, with machines pushing the boundaries of speed and performance. Photo by Midwest Street Cars Yet, in the grand scheme of things, does it truly matter? Big Chief marches to the beat of his own drum, charting his course amidst the cacophony of revving engines and screeching tires. He's not driven by trophies or accolades but by the sheer thrill of the chase. So, while his decision might raise a few eyebrows, it's a testament to his unwavering resolve and unyielding passion. In a world consumed by the relentless pursuit of progress, Big Chief remains steadfast in his convictions. He's not swayed by the allure of shiny new toys or the promise of fleeting glory. Instead, he clings to the essence of what it means to be a street racer—a rebel with a cause, a legend in the making. And in that, perhaps, lies the true measure of his greatness.

But fear not, because Larson has a new ace up his sleeve: the Chevy II. This car is promising to be lighter and more versatile, with plans to accommodate both procharger and turbo setups. While some may debate the merits of turbos versus prochargers on the No Prep Kings scene, Larson seems to be sticking with the latter for now, and with good reason. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography Known for his drag week dominance and his original Chevy II, Larson is returning to his roots with this build. It's a nod to his past successes and a testament to his ongoing pursuit of speed and performance. The Chevy II may not be as exotic as the Cadillac, but its performance potential is undeniable.
