I watch it, I've seen every episode, I'm getting to like it more, BUT
It's all scripted for production/filming obviously,
there maybe a few scenes that are not scripted but the actual race scenes are,
with all the lighting everyone's haulers/trailers lined up etc.
It's a car show, so I watch, it's about drag racing, makes it even better yet...
Quite a few fast cars...
Only downfall other than being scripted, is they only run 1/8th mile, I like 1/4 mile stuff
"Actual Street" cars I doubt that very much, that they actually drive them, on the street much
more like drag "strip" cars with license plates on the street...
That Blue Dart "Dominator" has IIRC a 632ci BBC on N20 in it too...
I like the cars, getting to like the characters more too,
I did a bunch of street racing as a young man,
I don't think it's the smartest thing to do now,
I think it's a control situation when they are filming, too much to lose now
BUT
I read somewhere that they even have medical people there,
just in case...
There's also
Monza a Bad *** Black 70 split bumper Camaro Z28 BBC N20 car, tube chassis
Daddy Dave a Fast as hell late 90's Sonoma with 632ci multiple N20 {3 kits}systems, tube chassis
The Crow Chief's car a 70 GTO with a Pontiac & Twin Turbos, S&W Racecars built tube chassis
Murder Nova 69 Nova with Twin Turbo big cube BBC, originally was a Pro-Charger, tube chassis
Doc a 70 Monte Carlo with a 707ci N20 {3 kits} equipped Fulton engine, tube chassis
a Fat Dude in gen 2 Camaro BBC & N20 some joker that likes to take peoples sleeves, tube chassis
{can't remember his name}
Androity a G-Body 80's Cutlass with a SBC & N20
Kamikaze 80's G-Body El Camino supposed to be a POS but it's fast, uses everyone's cast off parts
POS Gold Mustang with a BBF FE {allegedly a John Kaase} big stroker & N20, the guy & his 20 kids...LOL
that can't ever get down the track/street {some old guys that's supposed to be a legendary OKC street racer}
Chuck another white POS Mustang with a twin turboed SBC
Farmtruck those guys are kind of funny they have a 632ci BBC 1500+ hp in that POJ
{they go out Phishing for street races all over the place}
Boosted GT 90's Mustang Turboed SBC s a guy from Texas that joined the OKC list
most about 1/2 are small tire cars,
but pretty damn fast,
there's a few have a large slick {big tire} & full tube chassis, all the faster guys etc.
most are all working stiffs, with families
there's been a couple women on or attempted to be on "the list" too
no true Mopars thou
It's an interesting take on street races {scripted mostly} or traveling around &
racing other cities occasionally, their allegedly fasted street racers etc.,
they've gone to Chicago, Dallas Area, "allegedly" Detroit, SoCal, I can't remember others...
BUT there's also some controversy whether stuff actually happens,
the way they depicted it on the show
if that's what your looking for it's a TV show, just more entertainment,
better than Honey Bo Bo or all the Housewives BS...LOL
