  • Street Outlaws Racers Eye Pro Mod Series: Nate Sayler Building a New Car

    The Street Outlaws scene continues to heat up, and this time, it’s not just about the No Prep Kings (NPK) series. Several top racers from NPK have started expressing serious interest in Pro Mod racing, with some even building or purchasing new cars for the upcoming winter series. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography  One of the most exciting developments is Nate Sayler, who’s currently working on building a brand-new Pro Mod for this winter's racing season. The buzz around this project is gaining traction, and fans can’t wait to see what unfolds. NPK Racers Embrace Pro Mod Action It’s not just Nate Sayler who’s making waves in the Pro Mod world. There’s been a noticeable uptick in NPK racers wanting to take a crack at Eighth Mile Pro Mod racing after the NPK season wraps up. Names like Scott Taylor, Kye Kelly (who's showing some interest), Justin Swanstrom, and Mike Bowman have been floating around, all of whom are either building or considering building cars for the winter series. It’s exciting to think about the level of talent from NPK possibly crossing over to Pro Mod races like the World Series of Pro Mod and the Snowbirds. Photo by Mike Bowman Racing  As a fan of Street Outlaws, it’s amazing to see these racers testing their skills in another arena. The Pro Mod series, especially in the Eighth Mile format, showcases some of the best door car racing in the world. While NHRA’s quarter-mile racing is also impressive, there’s something about the raw intensity of Eighth Mile racing that hits differently. It’s fast-paced, high-stakes, and for many racers and fans, the ultimate proving ground. Nate Sayler’s New Pro Mod Car One of the most exciting projects on the horizon is Nate Sayler’s new build. As of now, Sayler’s new car is being crafted by RG Race Cars, a name that’s known for building some serious machines. While we don’t know all the details about this new ride, it’s safe to say it’ll have ProCharger power under the hood. With Lee White likely handling the tuning duties, we can expect some serious performance out of this car. White is known as one of the best tuners in the business, and with his expertise, Sayler’s new build is definitely one to watch out for. Photo by Nate Sayler Racing  What This Means for the Future of Street Outlaws While the excitement around Pro Mod is real, it doesn’t mean that the NPK series is going anywhere. In fact, new NPK cars are already being built for next season, and fans can rest assured that the series will be back. However, the Pro Mod winter series gives these racers a chance to test their skills in a new environment during the NPK offseason. It’s an opportunity to race, compete, and stay sharp while also exploring different avenues of door car racing. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography  Earlier this year, we saw several Street Outlaws racers test their Pro Mod mettle, with drivers like Justin Swanstrom, Chuck 55, and Mike Bowman competing in events like the World Series of Pro Mod. Bowman even claimed victory at the inaugural World Series of Pro Mod back in 2017, proving that Street Outlaws racers can definitely hold their own in the world of Pro Mod racing. Wrapping Up As the NPK season winds down, all eyes will be on the racers who are making the leap into Pro Mod action. Whether it’s the established pros like Mike Bowman or newcomers like Nate Sayler, this crossover promises to bring some exciting matchups in the world of door car racing. At Street Outlaws Talks, we’re all about following the journeys of these racers, and we can’t wait to see what they’ll bring to the Pro Mod scene this winter. Stay tuned as we keep you updated on all the latest Street Outlaws news, racer developments, and everything in between. If you love Street Outlaws and want to follow your favorite racers into the world of Pro Mod, you’re in the right place.

  • Kallee Mills Returns to No Prep Kings This Weekend in Las Vegas

    We’re heading into another exciting weekend of racing at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, and fans of No Prep Kings have something big to look forward to. Kallee Mills is making her return to the NPK stage with her Golden Kong Camaro, and it’s going to be one wild ride! Photo by Kallee Mills Racing As many of you already know, Kallee’s been racing on and off this year in the NPK series, and after taking some time to fine-tune her car, she’s back in action. The Golden Kong Camaro has gone through some major changes over the past few months. After dealing with some struggles earlier this season, Kallee and her team decided to go back to big tires and focus on making the car as competitive as possible. This past week, they were out testing the Camaro, and according to Kallee’s team, it’s ready to take on the competition once again. The Challenge of Screw Blown Combos The big question is, can Kallee and the Golden Kong Camaro stay consistent enough to make a serious impact this weekend? As we’ve seen with other screw-blown cars in No Prep Kings, they tend to have the speed but can lack the consistency of their ProCharger counterparts. That’s been a key issue for teams running similar setups this season. However, the track at Las Vegas Motor Speedway has a reputation for being one of the best surfaces on the NPK circuit. If the track holds up, and the conditions are right, Kallee might just have the advantage she needs to get to the top. Photo by Kallee Mills Racing Las Vegas is notorious for its high-altitude conditions. The density altitude (DA) is expected to be around 5,000 to 5,500 feet, which means the air won’t be ideal for making maximum power. Despite this, the track itself should be good, and teams should be able to apply power effectively. While Kallee’s Camaro has the potential for insane speed, it’ll come down to how well she can harness that power on a challenging track. A Push for the Top 16 With the season nearing its final stretch, Kallee is a bit behind in the points standings, having missed several races this year. That said, she still has a shot at breaking into the top 16, which would put her in the running for the championship. But to do that, she’ll need to perform exceptionally well in Las Vegas and in the following race weekend. It’s definitely a tall order, but Kallee’s got the determination and the team to pull it off. Her crew is nothing short of elite. Anyone familiar with the sport knows the name Dwayne Mills—Kallee’s dad. Dwayne has won in countless classes, from radial tires to big tires, and he’s a seasoned veteran in the world of drag racing. With his expertise guiding Kallee, there’s no doubt that the Golden Kong Camaro will be dialed in and ready to compete. Photo by Kallee Mills Racing Women in Drag Racing – A Growing Force One of the things we love to see here at Street Outlaws Talks  is the growing presence of women in drag racing, especially in No Prep Kings. While there aren’t many women competing in the NPK series right now, racers like Pat Goin, Kayla Morton, and of course, Kallee Mills, are leading the charge. The loss of Lacy was a tough one for the community, but seeing strong women continue to thrive in this sport is a reminder of just how much talent and passion is out there. We’re hoping to see even more women take the wheel and make their mark in the future. All Eyes on Kallee This Weekend So, what can we expect from Kallee Mills and the Golden Kong Camaro in Las Vegas? With a finely tuned car, a strong team, and a good track to work with, we’re optimistic that Kallee will make some noise this weekend. While the competition is tough, Kallee’s persistence and skill make her a serious contender. If she can make a deep run and pick up some valuable points, she could still pull off an impressive comeback in the standings. Here at Street Outlaws Talks , we’re all about celebrating the spirit of competition, the thrill of the race, and the stories of the people who make this sport what it is. Kallee Mills’ return to No Prep Kings is a story we’ll be watching closely, and we can’t wait to see what she delivers in Las Vegas. Stay tuned for more updates and coverage of this exciting NPK season as we follow all the action leading up to the championship! Let’s wish Kallee and the Golden Kong Camaro the best of luck this weekend—go get ‘em!

  • The Most Shocking No Prep Kings Stat: Ryan Martin and Justin Swanstrom's Impressive Streak

    Welcome back to StreetOutlawsTalks.com ! Today, we’re diving into a mind-blowing stat that’s turning heads in the No Prep Kings (NPK) community. We’re talking about two of the most dominant drivers to ever hit the track: Ryan Martin and Justin Swanstrom. These two are carving out their legacy in ways that may just change how we view greatness in the world of NPK. Photo by Radical Speed If you’ve been following the No Prep Kings series, you already know how competitive it can get. Some of the best street racers from all over the country come together, all gunning for the top spot. But what’s really wild is how few drivers have been able to pull off consistent wins season after season. That’s where Ryan Martin and Justin Swanstrom stand out. Consistency is King The stat that’s causing a buzz? Ryan Martin and Justin Swanstrom are the only two drivers to have won an Invitational event every single season they’ve competed. Think about that for a second—every single season, no matter what obstacles were thrown their way, they’ve managed to come out on top. Ryan Martin, often referred to as the GOAT of NPK, has been doing this since Season 1. He’s not only won multiple Invitational events each season, but he’s also claimed three NPK championships and a team championship. That level of consistency is almost unheard of in such a high-stakes competition, where every race could be anyone's game. Justin Swanstrom, on the other hand, is a newer addition to the top ranks of NPK, having started in Season 4. But don’t let that fool you—he’s been nothing short of spectacular since his debut. He’s managed to win an Invitational every season he’s raced, and he’s proven time and again that he’s here to stay. From finishing third in the points standings his first two seasons to going head-to-head with the likes of Ryan Martin and Kai Kelly, Swanstrom has made his mark in a big way. Photo by Radical Speed Surprising Names Missing from the List What’s even more surprising about this stat is the drivers who aren’t  on the list. Big names like Kai Kelly, a heavy hitter in the No Prep Kings scene, haven’t been able to claim a win every season they’ve raced. It really puts into perspective just how tough this competition is—and just how impressive it is for Martin and Swanstrom to have maintained their streak. Birdman, another OG in the street racing world, also hasn’t kept up this level of consistency. While he’s had his fair share of success, recent years haven’t been as kind to him in the Invitational events. This only adds to the shock factor of Ryan Martin and Justin Swanstrom’s ongoing dominance. What Makes Ryan Martin and Justin Swanstrom So Special? Ryan Martin’s success almost feels inevitable at this point. He’s so good that many fans have come to expect him to win—so much so that sometimes we might not even fully appreciate just how dominant he is. To win in a competition like NPK is no small feat, yet Martin makes it look routine. His bad seasons would still be considered career highlights for most drivers. It’s easy to overlook how incredible his accomplishments really are when he’s winning so consistently. Justin Swanstrom, on the other hand, has a different kind of appeal. He’s the underdog who fought his way up, never given anything on a silver platter. He earned his spot through grit, talent, and sheer determination. Swanstrom’s rise to prominence wasn’t an overnight success story. He worked his way up through the ranks, grabbing attention with his hard work both on and off the track, including his growing presence on YouTube and social media. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography  His first two seasons in NPK, where he finished third overall, were incredible achievements. And let’s not forget—he wasn’t far off from winning it all, with the championship often coming down to the final race. Competing against seasoned veterans like Ryan Martin and Kai Kelly, and still managing to hold his own, speaks volumes about Swanstrom’s talent and potential. What Does This Mean for NPK? This stat really puts things into perspective when it comes to the upper echelon of No Prep Kings racers. Martin and Swanstrom aren’t just competing—they’re dominating. While many drivers are still searching for their first big win, these two are out there setting the bar higher and higher. It’ll be interesting to see if anyone can break into this elite group in the future. But for now, it’s safe to say that Ryan Martin and Justin Swanstrom are two of the fastest, most consistent drivers in No Prep Kings history. Their streaks show no signs of slowing down, and it’s going to take some serious talent to knock them off their pedestals. Photo by Radical Speed Final Thoughts As we gear up for the next NPK race, let’s take a moment to appreciate just how rare and impressive it is to win an Invitational every season you compete. Ryan Martin and Justin Swanstrom are doing things that very few racers can even dream of. Whether you’re a long-time fan or new to the sport, these two drivers are setting a standard that’s hard to ignore. Let us know your thoughts! Who do you think will be the next driver to break through and join this elite group? Will Martin and Swanstrom continue their streaks into future seasons? Drop a comment below and let’s keep the conversation going! Stay tuned for more updates, race recaps, and insider info here at StreetOutlawsTalks.com —your go-to source for everything No Prep Kings!

  • The YETI Chevelle Makes Its Way to Canada for No Prep Kings Season 8: What to Expect

    Welcome back to Street Outlaws Talks, your go-to source for all things Street Outlaws and No Prep Kings! Today, we’ve got an exciting update on one of the most anticipated cars heading into NPK Season 8—the YETI Chevelle, now owned by Chevy Reeves. Photo by Team Monza 405  For those who might not know, the YETI Chevelle, formerly known as Monza's Chevelle, has recently made its way north of the border to Canada, where Chevy Reeves and his team are preparing it for competition. The car was initially built with No Prep Kings (NPK) in mind but never had a chance to hit the track in Season 6 after Monza pulled out just before the competition started. Now, after sitting idle for nearly a year and a half, this beast is ready to roar once again, but this time with a new owner and team. A New Era for the YETI Chevelle The YETI Chevelle, freshly named by its new team, was built by none other than Cameron Johnson Race Cars. If you’re familiar with NPK, you know Cameron Johnson’s work is top-notch. His cars are fast, reliable, and built for one thing—winning. One of the most notable examples of his craftsmanship is the "Prenup," a purpose-built NPK car that has been turning heads for years. With the YETI Chevelle coming from the same shop, it’s safe to say we’re in for some serious action when Chevy Reeves hits the track. While Monza never gave the Chevelle an official name, Chevy Reeves and his Hell of a Chevy team have made it their own. Now known as the YETI Chevelle, this car is set to make its NPK debut in Season 8, and there’s a lot of buzz surrounding what it can do. This car was always designed to be competitive, and after some fine-tuning, testing, and tweaking, we expect it to be a serious contender. What’s Next for the YETI Chevelle? With the car now in Canada, Chevy Reeves is getting it prepped and ready for testing. NPK Season 8 is just around the corner, and the excitement is building. While some fans have been concerned about the future of NPK, with rumors swirling about possible cancellations, we at Street Outlaws Talks are confident that the show isn’t going anywhere. In fact, all signs point to an exciting new season with a lot of fresh faces and fierce competition. Photo by Team Monza 405  The YETI Chevelle will likely be one of the standout cars next season, and we can’t wait to see it in action. Chevy Reeves has a lot to prove, and taking on the NPK field with a Cameron Johnson-built car gives him a solid shot at making some noise right out of the gate. Why NPK Season 8 Matters It’s no secret that No Prep Kings has become a massive hit in the racing world, and fans love the combination of high-speed action, raw power, and street-style racing that the series delivers. Even though some racers are exploring different forms of competition—like Pro Mods—NPK remains one of the most exciting and unpredictable racing series around. Season 8 promises to be just as intense, if not more so. With new cars, new racers, and returning champions all vying for the top spot, the YETI Chevelle has its work cut out for it. But if the history of Cameron Johnson’s builds tells us anything, it’s that this car is going to be fast, reliable, and ready for the challenge. Photo by Team Monza 405  Looking Ahead We’re eagerly awaiting the first test passes from the YETI Chevelle, and if the rumors are true, we’ll be seeing it on track sooner rather than later. Chevy Reeves and his team have the talent, and with a car like this, they could very well make a huge splash in their NPK debut. For now, all we can do is stay tuned, watch for updates, and keep an eye on the testing sessions to see what this car is capable of. Street Outlaws fans, gear up—NPK Season 8 is coming, and the YETI Chevelle might just be the car to watch. Keep it locked here at Street Outlaws Talks for all the latest news, updates, and exclusive insights on the YETI Chevelle, No Prep Kings, and everything Street Outlaws!

  • Chuck Seitsinger's 2nd Amendment Mustang: Future Plans for No Prep Kings Season 7 and Beyond

    Welcome to StreetOutlawsTalks.com , your go-to source for the latest news and updates on everything related to Street Outlaws and No Prep Kings. Today, we’re diving into Chuck Seitsinger’s plans for his legendary “Second Amendment” Mustang as he prepares for the rest of No Prep Kings Season 7  and what’s next for this iconic car. Photo by Chuck Seitsinger Racing  Chuck Seitsinger, a familiar face in the Street Outlaws world, made a return to No Prep Kings this season with his new Mustang, aptly named the "Second Amendment." This car has quickly become one to watch, despite being powered by a setup that some may consider not as competitive as others in the field— a twin-turbo 41X combination. It’s clear Chuck’s heart is in the race, and while the car may not have the top-tier power some other racers are boasting, it’s making consistent passes, and in the no-prep world, that counts for a lot. A Look at Chuck’s Season So Far Chuck returned to No Prep Kings  in the middle of the season with the 2nd Amendment Mustang. Even though his current setup might not be what’s considered the ideal powerhouse on the NPK circuit, Chuck and his team have managed to dial the car in pretty well. The twin-turbo 41X might not be the absolute top choice for dominating the series, but consistency has been key. Let’s face it: when you're on the track, if your opponent slips up or doesn't make a clean pass, that’s all Chuck needs to grab a win. This speaks volumes about how well Chuck’s car is performing. It’s not just showing up— it’s showing up and putting in work, making it down the track every single time. Big Changes Ahead for the 2nd Amendment Mustang In one of his recent posts, Chuck hinted at some exciting changes in the future for his beloved Mustang. When the finances line up, Chuck plans to upgrade the power setup. While the twin-turbo 41X has been holding its own, Chuck is considering swapping to either a screw blower Hemi  or possibly a ProCharger . Photo by Chuck Seitsinger Racing  For those unfamiliar, these types of combinations are much more common at the top levels of No Prep Kings racing. A ProCharger or screw blower Hemi could give Chuck’s Mustang the extra edge needed to compete with some of the faster cars in the series. But as many racers know, making a switch like this is no small feat. It requires a hefty investment— with Hemi engines costing well over $100,000 brand new, and even second-hand setups still requiring a significant financial commitment. Building a competitive NPK car isn’t just about swapping out a motor; it’s about ensuring the entire setup works in harmony. Even with a used screw blower or ProCharger, you're easily looking at six figures when all is said and done. Not every racer has the means to constantly upgrade their car, but Chuck’s determination shows he’s willing to do what it takes to stay competitive, even if it takes time. The Mustang's Unique Challenges The 2nd Amendment Mustang presents its own unique challenges, mainly due to its shorter wheelbase. Fox-body Mustangs, like Chuck’s, are known for their compact size, and that can sometimes make handling trickier at the speeds required to be competitive in NPK. Shorter wheelbase cars are known to be more unstable at high speeds, which can make them more difficult to tune for consistent performance on the track. Photo by Chuck Seitsinger Racing  But Chuck isn’t alone in this. Kye Kelly , one of the heavy hitters in No Prep Kings, has also moved to a shorter wheelbase car. While Kye’s new car is incredibly fast, it’s also struggled with consistency—something Chuck is well aware of. However, as we’ve seen with Chuck’s 2nd Amendment Mustang, the car’s current setup is already making consistent passes, which is a good sign for the future. What’s Next for Chuck and the 2nd Amendment? With the potential for a new combination on the horizon, there’s no doubt that Chuck Seitsinger’s 2nd Amendment Mustang has a bright future in No Prep Kings. Whether he makes the jump to a screw blower or ProCharger setup remains to be seen, but one thing’s for sure: Chuck is committed to making this car faster and more competitive. For now, fans can expect to see Chuck continue to dial in his current twin-turbo setup and take advantage of every opportunity that presents itself on the track. Consistency, determination, and a little bit of luck can go a long way in the unpredictable world of no-prep racing. As we continue to follow Chuck’s journey, stay tuned to StreetOutlawsTalks.com  for all the latest updates. We’re excited to see where the 2nd Amendment Mustang goes from here, and we’ll be bringing you every step of the action as Chuck Seitsinger powers his way through the rest of Season 7 and beyond.

  • Justin Swanstrom and Team Dominate $100,000 Grudge Shootout and Race

    In a jaw-dropping showcase of speed and skill, Justin Swanstrom and his crew have cemented their place in the spotlight, sweeping both the $100,000 Grudge Shootout and the $100,000 Grudge Race. This back-to-back triumph is not just impressive—it's a testament to the exceptional talent and preparation of Swanstrom’s team. Photo by Justin Swanstrom The victory at the Grudge Shootout was particularly notable. The competition featured some of the fastest cars in the scene, but Swanstrom’s team, including key players like Cory Swanstrom, Travis Harvey, and Lee White, proved unstoppable. Their success is a reflection of the hard work and expertise that goes into their program. It’s no surprise, considering the caliber of the team, that they emerged victorious. Photo by Justin Swanstrom The Grudge Race was equally thrilling. Swanstrom's car, affectionately known as "Prenup," went head-to-head against Fletcher Cox in an electrifying final. Despite the fierce competition, "Prenup" demonstrated why it’s considered the baddest Grudge car around. Its performance was flawless, showcasing speed and consistency that left no room for doubt. Swanstrom’s ability to execute under pressure was on full display, with no sign of faltering in the high-stakes environment of a $100,000 race. The achievement highlights a crucial point: the No Prep Kings cars, often criticized by some as underperformers, have once again shown their true prowess. "Prenup," built specifically for NPK, was repurposed for Grudge racing on a radial tire. This car’s outstanding performance serves as a powerful rebuttal to any doubts about the capability of purpose-built NPK vehicles. Photo by Justin Swanstrom With such a significant win, the eyes are now on what’s next for Justin Swanstrom. The team is gearing up for their next challenge in Las Vegas, where they'll aim to carry their momentum forward. Fans and competitors alike will be watching closely to see if Swanstrom can continue his winning streak and further solidify his reputation in the No Prep Kings Season 7. Stay tuned to StreetOutlawsTalks.com for more updates on Swanstrom’s journey and other exciting developments in the world of Street Outlaws.

  • Who Will Make the Elite 16 on No Prep Kings Season 7?

    Hello, Street Outlaws fans! Welcome to StreetOutlawsTalks.com , your go-to source for everything Street Outlaws and No Prep Kings (NPK). Today, we’re diving into one of the biggest questions on everyone’s mind: Who will make it to the Elite 16 in No Prep Kings Season 7? As the season comes down to the wire, the competition is fiercer than ever. There’s no doubt that these next few races are going to be crucial for determining who makes it to the final showdown. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography  The Points Battle: Who's On the Bubble? As we look at the current standings, it’s clear that positions 19 through 10 are incredibly tight. Just a few points separate the racers in this group, which means every round counts in the remaining races. Let’s check out the drivers battling to lock in their spot in the Elite 16: Nate Sayler  – One of the fastest guys out there. Nate’s car has been a serious contender this season. While he’s sitting just outside the top 16 right now, he has the potential to win an event and punch his ticket into the finals. Daddy Dave  – A name that’s always in the conversation. He’s had a few ups and downs this season, but with his experience, you can never count Daddy Dave out. Jimmy Taylor and Birdman Finney  – Both racers are right in the mix. Birdman, especially, has been around the block in the NPK series, and you know he’s gunning for a spot in the final 16. Jim Howe  – He’s had a rollercoaster season, but when Jim is dialed in, he can take out just about anyone. Chris Rankin  – After bringing a new car into the mix, Chris has been making waves. He’s fast, and if he can put together a few consistent performances, he could definitely break into the Elite 16. Jerry Bird  – Jerry’s had some strong moments this season. He’s another driver with the potential to make a late push. Jeff Lutz, Kayla Morton, Bobby Ducote  – These racers have all been in the hunt but need to find consistency to secure their spots. Kayla Morton, in particular, has shown she’s got the speed, but she’ll need to string together some good finishes. The Key to Success: Consistency There’s one thing holding back many of these racers: consistency. All of them have fast cars, and they’ve shown they can win races. But to make the Elite 16, they need to put it all together in the final stretch of the season. Whether it’s mechanical issues, penalties, or just bad luck, a lot of these drivers haven’t been able to deliver week after week. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography  With only a couple of races left, consistency is more important than ever. Even drivers who are currently sitting in the top 10 could drop out of the Elite 16 if they stumble in the next events. The pressure is on, and these racers can’t afford any mistakes. Fast Cars Outside the Top 16 There are a few racers outside the top 16 who have the ability to shake things up. Nate Sayler  is definitely one of them. With his speed and experience, Nate could easily win an event and jump into the Elite 16. The same goes for Jim Howe  and Chris Rankin , both of whom have shown they have what it takes to win on any given weekend. It’s all about putting together the right performances at the right time. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography  Critical Races Ahead The next two events are going to be absolutely crucial. Las Vegas and Michigan are on the schedule, and both tracks present unique challenges. In Las Vegas, the air density will be a factor—at around 5,500 feet, the cars won’t be running as fast as they typically do. However, with good track prep, we can still expect some exciting racing. Michigan, on the other hand, will have much better air, and the track surface is known to be top-notch. This could be where some of the bubble racers make their big move. If you’re sitting on the edge of the top 16, Michigan might be your last, best chance to break through. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography  Can Doc Make the Cut? Let’s not forget about Doc , who’s currently a bit further down the standings but has been improving as the season progresses. Doc recently made some significant upgrades to his car, shedding a lot of weight, which could give him the edge he needs. While it’s going to be tough for him to break into the Elite 16, his recent performances suggest that he’s not out of it yet. We’d love to see Doc make a surprise run to the finals! The Final Push As we get closer to the final races of No Prep Kings  Season 7, the battle for the Elite 16 is tighter than ever. The next two events will be pivotal for many racers, with spots 19 through 10 being especially vulnerable. The racers on the bubble have the speed, but it will come down to execution. Whether you’re rooting for Nate Sayler , Birdman Finney , Kayla Morton , or any of the other talented drivers, one thing is for sure—the action is going to be intense! Make sure to stay tuned to StreetOutlawsTalks.com  for all the latest updates, race recaps, and insider news. The road to the Elite 16 is full of twists and turns, and we’ll be right there with you, following every step of the way. Let us know in the comments who you think will make the final cut!

  • Prenup Dominates Grudge Racing and $100K Shootout Today: A Closer Look

    Hey everyone! Welcome back to Street Outlaws Talks, where we dive deep into the hottest races, fastest cars, and behind-the-scenes action in the world of street racing. Today, we’re shifting gears to talk about one of the most lethal cars on the track right now: Justin Swanstrom’s "Prenup" Lexus. Photo by Justin Swanstrom If you’ve been following the Grudge Racing scene, you already know Prenup is no joke. It’s been tearing up the track, specifically on small tires with drag radials on a prepped surface. This car was built for big tires and NPK (No Prep Kings), but it's proven itself to be a weapon on radials. In fact, since it started Grudge Racing this year, it’s lost only one race. That’s right, one race. Travis Harvey Takes the Wheel Today’s action brings even more excitement as Travis Harvey steps in to drive Prenup for the $100,000 shootout. If you know Harvey, you know he’s a beast behind the wheel. He’s raced in Pro Boost, Pro Mod, and of course, Grudge Racing. With a lighter frame than Justin, Harvey is set to push the car even further today. This Lexus isn’t just fast—it’s a finely tuned machine. It’s running an insane amount of power, and if the rumors are true, there's no overdrive restriction. Some say it’s capable of running in the 3.60-second range, though in typical Grudge Racing fashion, no times are being revealed. But we all know—this thing flies. Grudge Racing: Built for Speed and Secrecy What’s interesting about Prenup is how well it’s performing on radials. Despite being designed for big tire competition, it might even be running better on smaller tires. But whether it's on big tires or radials, one thing is for sure: this car is lethal. Grudge Racing is all about keeping things under wraps—no times, no tuning secrets, just speed and strategy. This secrecy is part of what makes it so exciting for the fans, and Prenup has certainly embraced that culture. Photo by Justin Swanstrom The $100K Shootout: Will Prenup Take Home the Win? The $100K shootout is shaping up to be an epic showdown. With Big Country dialing in the car and the team coming off a recent Grudge Racing win—where Marcus Birt took Prenup for a victorious spin—the Lexus is in prime form for today’s event. Every indication points to it being a top contender. Now, let’s not forget Justin Swanstrom’s roots. He’s been deep in the Grudge Racing game since his teenage years. It’s in his blood, and you can see it every time Prenup hits the track. Whether it's in the NPK series or on the Grudge Racing circuit, Justin’s always a force to be reckoned with. Today’s no different, and we’re rooting for him all the way! Final Thoughts: All Eyes on Prenup As we look ahead to the $100K shootout, all eyes are on Prenup. With Travis Harvey behind the wheel and a killer team in the pits, this car is set to make some serious noise. It’s exciting to see how Justin’s car, originally built for NPK, has transitioned into the Grudge Racing scene so flawlessly.

  • The Last Hope for Street Shows: Boosted GT’s Small Tire Show – Will It Bring Street Racing Back?

    Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to Street Outlaws Talks, where we discuss everything and anything in the world of street racing. This week, we’re diving into a topic that’s been on everyone’s mind lately: the future of street shows in the Street Outlaws universe. Is there still hope for the raw, street-based racing content that we all fell in love with? Or has the focus completely shifted to No Prep Kings, leaving the streets behind? Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography  The Uncertain Future of Street Outlaws on TV For those who don’t know, the future of Street Outlaws  on Discovery Channel is looking pretty grim. With no new street shows announced, and No Prep Kings Season 6 potentially being the last season to air, it feels like the era of street-based racing on TV might be coming to an end. There’s still a slim chance we’ll see No Prep Kings Season 6  hit our screens this fall, but if that doesn’t happen, it might be curtains for Street Outlaws as we know it on Discovery. Discovery hasn’t confirmed anything yet, and to be honest, we can’t be too sure what’s going on behind the scenes. But from what we’ve gathered, this could be the final run for the show on that platform. Even if No Prep Kings airs, it’s not exactly what most of us tune in for. It’s not street racing; it’s a competition in a controlled environment. And while that’s cool, it’s not the raw, unpredictable, late-night street action that made Street Outlaws a fan favorite in the first place. Jeff Lutz Offers a Glimmer of Hope Now, I know what you’re thinking: Is that it for the streets? Is there any chance of the street scene making a comeback? Well, there might be a spark of hope, and it comes from none other than Jeff Lutz . He recently hinted that street racing content could eventually return, and he seems confident about it. During a recent No Prep Kings  race, Jeff mentioned that the success of the live-streamed events could lead to more street-focused content in the future. Photo by BoostedGT  But let’s be real: while Jeff’s comments are encouraging, there’s no official confirmation or concrete plan for street shows. All we have right now are whispers and speculation. That said, Jeff’s been in the game long enough to know a thing or two, so maybe he’s onto something. Boosted GT’s Small Tire Show: The Last Real Hope? Now, here’s where things get interesting. While the future of Street Outlaws on Discovery may be uncertain, there’s one project that has real potential to bring street racing back into the spotlight: Boosted GT’s small tire show . Back in March 2024, Boosted GT posted a photo on his Facebook page showing him in front of professional cameras, filming something. This wasn’t some behind-the-scenes teaser or a random social media update. It was a clear sign that something was in the works. And from what we can gather, it looks like Boosted might be working on a small tire street racing show . Now, we’re not saying this is pure speculation—Boosted himself shared this image, and it’s pretty clear that something is being filmed. The big question is: what exactly is it, and where will we see it? Could YouTube Be the New Home for Street Racing Content? Here’s where things get even more interesting. There’s a good chance that Boosted’s new show might not be picked up by Discovery Channel or any traditional TV network. With the current landscape of television shifting towards streaming and digital platforms, it wouldn’t be surprising if this new project finds a home on YouTube  or another streaming service. Honestly, YouTube seems like the perfect platform for a small tire street racing show. It allows for greater creative freedom, faster content delivery, and direct engagement with the fans. Plus, it bypasses all the red tape of traditional TV networks. Fans could get the raw, unfiltered street racing content they crave, without any of the restrictions or limitations imposed by TV networks. Will Boosted GT’s Show Be the Next Big Thing? At this point, Boosted’s show is like Bigfoot—there’s evidence that it exists, but we haven’t seen it in full form yet. We’re all waiting with bated breath to see if this project will finally hit the screens and reignite the street racing flame. Will it be the pilot show that leads to a new wave of street racing content? Or will it disappear into the ether like so many other rumored projects? Photo by BoostedGT  Only time will tell, but here at Street Outlaws Talks, we’re holding out hope that this is the spark we’ve been waiting for. Boosted GT has always been a major player in the Street Outlaws world, and if anyone can bring street racing back to the forefront, it’s him. The Future of Street Outlaws: What’s Next? While the outlook for street shows on Discovery Channel seems bleak, Boosted GT’s new project gives us a glimmer of hope. Whether it airs on YouTube, a streaming service, or somewhere else entirely, this small tire show could be the future of street racing content. What do you think? Will we see Boosted GT’s show take off and bring street racing back? Or is the street scene on TV done for good? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below, and stay tuned to Street Outlaws Talks for all the latest updates. Photo by Jordan Leist That’s all for this week, folks!

  • Scott Taylor's New Car for No Prep Kings Season 8 – A Tribute and a Beast in the Making

    Hey everyone! Welcome back to Street Outlaws Talks , your go-to source for the latest updates on all things Street Outlaws  and No Prep Kings . Today, we’re diving into one of the most exciting stories for the upcoming NPK Season 8 – Scott Taylor’s new car , which is currently being built, and it’s got a lot of fans talking. Photo by Scott Taylor Motorsports  A New Beginning: "Little Goldie" Scott Taylor is no stranger to the No Prep Kings series, and he’s always been one of the top contenders. For Season 8, he’s bringing something special to the track—a brand-new build that’s more than just another race car. This one’s got heart. It’s a 1969 Camaro , a tribute to his late father, and it’s going to be called Little Goldie . Not only is this car destined to be fast, but it’s also packed with personal meaning for Scott and his team. The car is currently being built by Bad Habits Fabrication , a shop that’s becoming known for putting together some of the fastest cars on the circuit. If you’ve seen Bobby Ducote’s car , you already know the quality that comes out of Bad Habits. So, it’s no surprise that fans are buzzing about what Scott’s new ride will bring to the table. From Turbo to ProCharger – Taylor’s Winning Formula Before diving into the details of the new build, let’s take a moment to talk about Scott’s current car, Track Doe . Over the past year, Scott experimented with a twin-turbo setup . While twin turbos can be a game-changer on a prep track, they didn’t quite perform the way Scott had hoped on the No Prep Kings surface. The combination just wasn’t consistent enough. As a result, Scott made the switch back to a ProCharger setup , which seems to have paid off big time. Photo by Scott Taylor Motorsports  Not only did Scott make the switch, but he also put Track Doe on a diet—shedding around 60 pounds by upgrading the front end and doors. And let me tell you, that weight reduction made a difference! Track Doe has been lightning-fast this season, and Scott’s gone toe-to-toe with some of the top racers in NPK. He’s already reached the finals, and it’s clear that he’s got a winning combination. The Competition Heats Up While Scott Taylor’s gearing up with his new Camaro, the competition isn’t sitting still. Justin Swanstrom  is also building a new car, and Kye Kelly —well, Kai’s always working on something new. If you’ve been following Kai Kelly’s NPK career, you know that he’s built several different cars over the years, always looking for the next edge. On the other hand, Ryan Martin , one of NPK’s most dominant racers, seems to be sticking with what works. His Fireball Camaro  and his new screw blower-equipped car  have been some of the most consistent performers on the circuit. Ryan’s been racing the same gray car since Season 4, and there’s no sign that he plans on changing things up anytime soon. What to Expect from Little Goldie Back to Scott’s new car, though—what can we expect from Little Goldie  in Season 8? While the car is still under construction, Scott’s already shared a sneak peek of the chassis on his Facebook page, and it’s looking promising. With Bad Habits Fabrication  behind the build, you can bet this car will be fast and competitive. Photo by Scott Taylor Motorsports  It’s also worth noting that the ProLine MH7 Hemi  paired with a ProCharger setup is one of the most reliable combinations in NPK. Scott’s had success with this combo on Track Doe, so we’re excited to see how it performs in Little Goldie . Cars with Meaning – A Tribute to Family One thing that really stands out about this new build is the emotional connection Scott has with it. This Camaro isn’t just another race car—it’s a tribute to his late father. Racing is all about passion, and it’s clear that Little Goldie  means more to Scott than just getting from the starting line to the finish. It’s personal. At Street Outlaws Talks , we love stories like this. Cars with meaning, cars that have history, and cars that reflect the passion of their builders are what make the No Prep Kings series so special. Scott Taylor’s Camaro is shaping up to be one of the most exciting builds we’ve seen in a long time, and we can’t wait to see it in action. Conclusion As we gear up for No Prep Kings Season 8 , all eyes are on Scott Taylor and Little Goldie . With a new car, a strong team behind him, and a winning setup, Scott’s got everything he needs to make a serious run for the championship. Stay tuned to Street Outlaws Talks for more updates on Scott’s build and all the action from the NPK circuit. Whether you’re rooting for Scott, Ryan, Kai, or any of the other top contenders, this season is going to be one for the books!

  • Fireball Camaro Testing for No Prep Kings: A Possible Comeback for Ryan Martin?

    Hello, Street Outlaws fans! Today, we’re diving deep into one of the hottest topics in the No Prep Kings (NPK) world: Ryan Martin’s Fireball Camaro and whether it’s gearing up for a major comeback this season. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography  Ryan Martin and the Fireball Camaro have been a dominant force in NPK for years. But this season, Ryan has faced some challenges, especially during the later half. However, don’t count him out just yet—he’s still sitting at number five in points and, as we all know, in this sport, anything can happen! The Fireball Camaro’s New Setup At the start of this season, Ryan debuted the Fireball Camaro with a brand-new screw-blown setup. This change sparked excitement across the community, especially after he clinched a victory and made it to the finals in the season opener. The car was incredibly fast right off the bat. But as the season progressed, issues began to surface. According to Ryan, the screw blower setup didn’t perform as well as expected on certain tracks, especially when conditions were less than ideal. Marginal track surfaces or daytime races seemed to be a tough spot for the Fireball Camaro. Interestingly, Ryan isn’t alone in this struggle. Many teams running screw blowers have found that their cars struggle on bad track surfaces or in tricky conditions. ProChargers, on the other hand, appear to handle these less-than-ideal conditions more effectively, leading to their dominance so far this season. Photo by Fireball Camaro  The Upcoming Races and What They Mean for Ryan The good news for Ryan and other screw-blown teams is that the upcoming NPK events are set to take place on some of the fastest tracks on the circuit. Tracks like Las Vegas, Michigan, Steel, Alabama, Texas Motorplex, and Tulsa are known for having solid surfaces, which should favor cars like the Fireball Camaro. Even though Las Vegas may not have the best air quality, the surface is strong, which could play right into the hands of the screw-blown setups. Ryan’s Fireball Camaro, with its screw blower, is known to be blisteringly fast on good surfaces. So as we head into these last six races, there’s a real possibility we’ll see Ryan make a serious push toward the top of the standings. ProChargers vs. Screw Blowers: A Tale of Two Setups So, why has the ProCharger setup been so dominant this season? It all comes down to track conditions. In No Prep Kings, ProChargers seem to handle less-than-perfect tracks better than screw blowers, and that’s why the top three cars in points are all ProCharged. But when conditions are prime, screw blowers can still hold their own. In other racing series, like the PDRA, screw-blown cars running at 92% overdrive often qualify right next to the top ProCharger cars, especially on prepped tracks. The difference in NPK comes down to how these setups handle no-prep surfaces, which haven’t always been in Ryan’s favor this season. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography  However, with the upcoming races likely to feature better track conditions, there’s a chance the screw blower might regain its edge. If the Fireball Camaro can capitalize on these faster surfaces, we could see a major shift in the standings. What’s Next for Ryan Martin and the Fireball Camaro? It’s still unclear whether Ryan will stick with the Fireball Camaro and its screw blower setup for the remainder of the season or if he’ll return to his more familiar ProCharger configuration. Given the upcoming tracks, it seems likely that we’ll see Ryan continue to push the limits of the Fireball Camaro. Ryan isn’t one to shy away from a challenge, and with some of the best tracks of the season still ahead, it wouldn’t be surprising to see him and the Fireball Camaro go on a late-season tear. Fans of Street Outlaws know just how resilient Ryan is, and the Fireball Camaro has proven time and again that it can run with the best of them when the conditions are right. In addition to Ryan, other top drivers with screw-blown setups, such as Kai Kelly, Justin Swanstrom, and Jim Howe, are also poised to make noise in these upcoming events. With several fast tracks still on the schedule, we’re in for some exciting races ahead. Will the Fireball Camaro Make a Comeback? As we approach the final stretch of the NPK season, all eyes are on Ryan Martin and the Fireball Camaro. With the car’s raw speed on good tracks, there’s every reason to believe that Ryan can make a strong push for the championship. At Street Outlaws Talks , we’re keeping a close eye on the Fireball Camaro’s progress. Will it be enough to propel Ryan to the top? Only time will tell, but one thing’s for sure—the Fireball Camaro is far from done this season. Let’s see how it all unfolds on these fast, upcoming tracks. We’re excited to see if Ryan can pull off a comeback and finish the season strong! Stay tuned for more updates on all things Street Outlaws and No Prep Kings! Be sure to check back at StreetOutlawsTalks.com  for the latest news, analysis, and rumors about your favorite drivers and cars. Let’s keep the conversation going!

  • Disco Dean: The Most Improved Racer on No Prep Kings Season 7

    Welcome to StreetOutlawsTalks.com , where we bring you the latest insights, updates, and in-depth analyses on everything Street Outlaws. Today, we’re shining a spotlight on one of the most talked-about racers of the season: Disco Dean. Is he the most improved racer on No Prep Kings (NPK) Season 7? Let’s dive in and find out. Photo by Disco Dean Stinky Pinky  Disco Dean’s Rise in the Ranks As of now, Disco Dean is sitting comfortably at number four in the points standings for the main Invitational races of NPK Season 7. This is no small feat considering the intense competition he faces every week. Dean has shown remarkable consistency and speed, which has been key to his rise in the rankings. It’s clear that he’s not just showing up to race —he’s showing up to win. Consistency is Key One of the standout aspects of Disco Dean’s performance this season is his consistency. He’s been getting faster with each race, which has allowed him to maintain a strong position in the standings. Unlike some other racers who might struggle with aborting passes or inconsistency in performance, Dean almost always gets down the track, and he’s rarely off pace. This reliability has proven to be a significant advantage in a sport where every fraction of a second counts. The Screw-Blown Debate When it comes to screw-blown combinations, Dean has certainly made a name for himself. While he may not yet be the fastest among the likes of Kai Kelly, Jim Howe, Justin Swanstrom, or Ryan Martin's Fireball Camaro, Dean is closing the gap. What sets him apart is not just his speed, but his ability to consistently perform at a high level. This consistency is what has kept him in the top tier of the standings and allowed him to compete head-to-head with the best in the game. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography  A Look Back: Dean’s Progress If we look back at previous seasons, Disco Dean wasn’t always a top contender. In seasons five and six, he wasn’t in the top five in points, and his performances, while solid, didn’t stand out as they do now. This makes his current standing all the more impressive. Dean has not only improved his speed but has also honed his racing strategy, making him a formidable opponent in every race. What’s Next for Disco Dean? As we move deeper into Season 7, all eyes are on Disco Dean. He’s within striking distance of the championship, and there’s no doubt that he’s hungry for his first main Invitational win. While he has previously won some team attack events in Season 4, a win in the main event has eluded him so far. Given his current form, it feels like it’s only a matter of time before he crosses that finish line first. Photo by Mallory Elizabeth Photography  The Road Ahead With each passing event, Disco Dean is getting faster and more consistent. If he continues on this trajectory, he could very well end up clinching a win in one of the upcoming races—and who knows, maybe even the championship. It’s been thrilling to watch his progress this season, and we can’t wait to see what he accomplishes next. At StreetOutlawsTalks.com , we’re rooting for him, and we know many of you are too. Stay tuned for more updates, and let’s see how far Disco Dean can go in what has already been an incredible season for him. Thanks for reading, and make sure to check back with us for more Street Outlaws news, updates, and exclusive content. Until next time, keep the pedal to the metal!
