And Daddy Dave build that new car  and totaled it before it ever made the show.
I live in the Hudson valley in NY
Orange county choppers was the same way
Started in the basement of the steel shop
Then with discovery channels money they Built a Huge building

It does get funny but remember, ultimately those in control of the finished product are Hollywood morons.

I thought when the two spectators got killed there would be mention of it, or a least condolences to the family in the beginning of the show, but no. they did however spend half a show on the dead dog. maybe pending litigation, who knows.

all the main characters for sure have TV money now , didn't in the beginning but do now ..... as far as drama about any street racing I've ever been too had smack talk and drama .... and this was before way before everyone had cell phone movie cameras like now to record , Ford verses Chevy was sometimes fighting words

More drama, this time more directly connected to the show. Midwest Street Cars shot up. Many of you may have seen this, but Jay might have might have missed it.

I saw that on the Bullet.  Unbelievable that some lowlife would pull a stunt like that.  I hope they catch whoever is responsible.

Since I don't like these types of shows to begin with I'll be the skeptic and speculate this was all staged as a ratings stunt.  ::)

The latest news from the Street Outlaws bunch - Big Chief and Chucky Davis crash. Sounds like both drivers are ok. Be warned the traffic to Bang Shift.com for the story is crashing their server, it might be hard to pull up the link right now.

Wow!  The Crow is done!!  Too bad, I had a lot of respect for that car because the engine is a Pontiac, not the standard, run of the mill BBC.

With Big Chief and Daddy Dave out due to crashes, it will be interesting to see how the list juggles around.  Murder Nova is now on top...

I doubt they are having a great day, but it could have ended so much worse.

Sure..... well, running 1000+ hp on non prepped streets is a dangerous game.

Happy no one is hurt.  Can't wait till a Kardashian buys a car and gets on the list!
