## Synopsis

Street Outlaws (2013-present) is an American reality series created for Discovery, with DMAX and Sport 1 carrying it as well, following Oklahoma City's undercover street racing ring. The drivers are led by Doc (James Love), Lutz (Jeff Lutz), Big Chief (Justin Shearer) and Murder Nova (Shawn Ellington), who compete for a place on the 'list' of the ten fastest street cars in the city. Their engine is simple and relentless: every driver wants to climb the ranking and hold on, and street racing outranks family, friends and work. Each episode is built around builds, test runs and head-to-head races in modified cars, from classic Chevys to race-ready farm trucks, with the pressure of the list pushing every rivalry further. The season-by-season run has now spanned nineteen seasons and over two hundred episodes of unscripted footage. Its tone is raw, competitive and gritty, with a hot-rod garage energy. Fans of Fast N' Loud and Top Gear will find the same appetite for machines and rivalries here.
