Is ' No Prep Kings' replacing ' Street Outlaws

You can stick those worries in the trunk because No Prep Kings will never replace Street Outlaws. The shows may feel similar to the untrained eye, but they are wildly different, which really affects the stakes of each. As with most competitions, the name of the game is status. Street Outlaws is based out of Oklahoma City, Okla., though there are underground street racing events all over the United States. If you're racing in OKC, you're trying to get on The List.Source: Instagram/@discodeankarns 'Street Outlaws'Article continues below advertisement According to the Street Outlaws OKC website, getting on The List means you have one of "the fastest underground street racers in America." There are only 10 drivers on The List, which makes each spot more coveted than the last. "The List has been a tradition passed down over generations in the OKC underground street racing circuit. It’s built up such notoriety that the Oklahoma City crews are getting noticed and called-out by underground racing communities all across the country," per the Street Outlaws OKC site. Discovery's Street Outlaws follows these drives as they shift in and out of the The List, doing whatever it takes to get on it and stay on it. People have been injured for The List.

The answer is safety. NoPrep.com defines this kind of racing as "similar to the average drag race but without the pre-race preparation." If that sounds more dangerous it's probably because it is. "Typically, a track has all of the tire rubber removed first and then rinsed, brushed, and dried," explained the outlet. "These tracks do not have traction compounds such as PJ1 Trackbite or other chemicals to provide grip." Evidently this makes for some pretty insane racing, attracting drivers with a bit of daredevil in them. Evidently, it's "every man for himself."Article continues below advertisement
