Over the years most of us started viewing Ryan Martin as the quiet guy that gets the job done. One of the biggest reasons he has been getting the job done however is his incredibly powerful Fireball Camaro, a machine put together so well that seldom needs any repair once it is out in the open street or the track. Even with astonishing numbers like 1500 “laps” under the belt, the Fireball was still happy to pick up the front left tire off the ground, disappear from view towards the finish line, and show the competition its laundry. While many racers would love owning a car like that and would be happy to keep it in the races, Ryan Martin did not get to the top of the game by staying behind, so understandably he solicited the built of something even faster. Photo by Fireball Camaro A few of the racers that had decided to switch to a screw blower combo really managed to get their teams and cars together and started dominating at some tracks, showing everybody that this is a combination that is to be respected and feared. For the sixth iteration of the championship, many started spreading rumors that Ryan will be making a change as well and the gray Fireball Camaro might be getting a screw blower, however, as we see in today’s video, it is still powered by a proline and a procharger. Photo by FuelTech USA Unfortunately, Ryan could not make it to this testing session but his faithful crew chief Javier Canales, the popular Javi is on the spot with the car and they are about to put it thru the ringer, with not just one round or one pull, instead, these guys will be testing the gray car for two days. There is no engine on earth that sounds more pissed off and ready to kill than a hemi with a procharger, so turn up the speakers and let us join the guy’s ad Fuel Tech as they take the championship winning car thru the ringer, enjoy.

Discovery Channel brings fans an unfiltered look at the gritty world of team street racing with a new season of “Street Outlaws: Fastest in America,” premiering at 8 p.m. ET/PT March 13. Photo by Street Outlaws “Street Outlaws: Fastest in America” follows JJ Da Boss and eight teams of street racers from across the U.S. as they compete to win up to $250,000. But this year is a gamechanger — instead of group head-to-head match-ups like previous seasons, this year, two racers from each team are selected every night to compete in a 16-driver bracket showdown for cash, leading to a no-holds-barred final. At the end of nine weeks, the team that has the most wins and cash secures the title and a bonus of $100,000. Photo by Street Outlaws Discovery Channel’s Street Outlaws universe includes: “Street Outlaws: No Prep Kings,” “Street Outlaws: OKC,” “Street Outlaws: Mega Cash Days,” “Street Outlaws: Fastest in America,” and upcoming series, “Street Outlaws vs. The World: Australia”. In 2022, Discovery Channel owned nearly half of the top 10 unscripted cable series on Monday nights for M25-54 with the “Street Outlaws” franchise (4 series total), more than any other network.

As the Street Outlaws have progressed incredibly far with how they race, it’s sometimes fun to take a look back over the timeline from time to time to see where they’ve all been. The whole concept of the Street Outlaws reality show is based on competition and rivalry, and no matter how we tempered the racers are, and how good of friends they are off the track, one they are side-by-side it’s everybody for himself. Photo by Street Outlaws When it comes to the crew from the 405, it turns out that the OKC boys aren’t exactly always sunshine and rainbows when it comes to competing with the crew from Tulsa. In the words of Jeff Lutz, “There’s usually a lot of shouting, fist flying, and the racing is usually pretty good.” Photo by Discovery While that might seem like a formula for chaos, it’s a passion like this it really makes the racing even more entertaining to watch. As if watching two insane cars make their way down the streets wasn’t already enough to really get our adrenaline pumping, knowing that there’s a storyline behind it and lots of personalities that are going to clash and make things chaotic really seems to drive up the entertainment value a good bit. Who doesn’t want to see the big moment of payoff after a couple of racing crews just got done running their mouths at one another? Photo by Discovery This time, we tune into Discovery as they take us to the scene to check in with some of the bits and pieces that spell out the rivalry between Tulsa and Oklahoma City on the streets. It seems that no matter who wins here, this rivalry will just be one that keeps on giving. Each and every time they to see each other, the competitors have faster cars and manage to find all new speeds to keep the stakes high. Video by Discovery

“Street Outlaws” drew millions of viewers season after season, as the thrill of watching underground street racing in the U.S. hadn’t waned since the show first aired in 2013. The reality television series was subject to much controversy, as the nature of the motorsport featured was illegal and therefore extremely dangerous; to say otherwise only meant that it was staged or fake. Many attested to the fact, however, that the cars and the races were real. As such, the fans wondered about how much money the cast made, that they willingly risked their lives as they participated in what was purported to be unsanctioned races. The guys knew the risks they took when they participated in every race, as they drove powerful cars pushed to the limit just to be the first across the finish line. It was said that car racing was one of the most lucrative sports, and it was quite evident, with the number of sponsors that pay to have their name or brand on the driver’s vehicles, helmets, and racing suits. However, the same could not be said for the cast of the show, as they were not allowed to do that considering they were supposedly engaged in underground racing. Besides, some companies might not want to be associated with an illegal form of racing. This begged the question of how the cast made so much money, especially considering the cost of their equipment. Winning races The prize money came from bets placed by individuals who participated in the race. Naturally, only those who believed that they had a chance at winning would join. Unless one was highly skilled, had a fast car, and enough experience, there was no money to be had in street racing. If one had all that, then the driver could win at least until someone with a faster car and better driving skills would challenge him to a race. In “Street Outlaws,” they did place bets on the side, but what they really wanted was to make it to the top of “The List” of the 10 fastest racing cars in Oklahoma City, or to win against guys from another city or state for bragging rights. Of course, no one would say ‘no’ to what they called Cash Day events with up to $50,000 on the line. In 2014, the buy-in was $1,000, and Shawn “Murder Nova” Ellington walked away with the winner-take-all pot of $12,000. Mega Cash Day was on a different level, as it had a prize pool of $600,000. More than 60 racers participated in the event, which had a double elimination format, as each racer had a chance to win $5,000 per race for the “winner’s bracket” and $3,000 per race for the “loser’s bracket.” For the final race, the winner would take home the grand prize of $100,000, plus the money won from every round. The inaugural winner for that event was the California native Brandon James, who was new to the racing scene. Ryan Martin won the prize money of $75,000 in the Mega Race Showdown 2 event in 2018, as he competed against the NHRA Pro Stock Racer Alex Laughlin, from Richard Rawling’s “Fast N’ Loud” Team. He also took home $100,000 as he won the “No Prep Kings” championship in 2019. Selling merchandise As the cast of “Street Outlaws” gained a huge following, it stood to reason that they would capitalize on that. Merchandise such as hats, hoodies, mugs, and shirts were for sale online, but they were also available on race days, as well as Meet and Greet events, which gave the fans a chance to meet their favorite driver and ask for their autographs. Here’s how much their merchandise usually cost: Daddy Dave’s fleece hoodie was for sale at $50. Ryan Martin had a collectible diecast car replica (1/64th scale) of his red Fireball Camaro, a 2010 5th Gen Camaro SS, for sale at about $30. Farmtruck’s Straw Hat was available for $28, but $10 more if one wanted a large hat signed by Farmtruck and AZN. Running or working at an auto shop It cost a lot of money to race cars, so not everyone could participate in racing events unless having a sponsor, and was given a car to drive. The cars were designed and modified for that particular sport, so the parts, fuel, testing, and everything it needed were quite expensive. Some of the guys in “Street Outlaws” owned a car shop, or worked in one as a builder, mechanic, or fabricator, which helped them in keeping their cars in top condition, ensuring that they would deliver the best results in every race. Some ventured into it so they wouldn’t have to spend so much in having others fix or improve the cars’ performance. It also became a source of income when they were not out racing. Jeff Lutz, who was known for his expertise and skill in constructing racecars helped Big Chief and Murder Nova with their respective cars, and also participated in the racing events. Daddy Dave owned Comstock Auto Shop. Ryan Martin co-owned B&R Performance, which specialized in aftermarket performance products and performance cars. Doc was the operator and owner of a full-service garage called Southwest Diesel Service. Monetizing YouTube and Instagram Most people could monetize their YouTube Channels through the YouTube Partner Program if they gained at least a thousand subscribers, and over 4,000 hours of overall watch time. Creating content might be simple for some, but the biggest challenge was to attract the required number of subscribers and views for their videos. Those who were famous and already had a big following, such as the cast of “Street Outlaws” had it easy because once they announced that they’d opened their YouTube accounts, so their fans would flock to their channels and watch everything they uploaded, be it about cars or their personal lives. It was a great way to promote their shows or businesses, and they could also be paid to endorse products, services, or brands. The more subscribers and views they had, the more money they earned. The Daddy Dave Racing channel had about 80,000 subscribers, and over 3.5 million views since he opened an account in June 2021. Big Chief’s Midwest Street Cars channel had over 300,000 subscribers and more than 35 million views since he joined the video-sharing site in December 2013. Ryan Martin had over 100,000 subscribers and nine million views since December 2015. Farmtruck and AZN joined YouTube in April 2006, and gained nearly 300,000 subscribers and close to 40 million views for their videos. Also, they could make some serious money from their Instagram accounts, as they could be paid for each post that they made for a particular brand or company. The higher the number of their followers, the more they could command a higher price for sponsored posts. Appearing on TV There were several reasons why people agreed to appear on TV or be part of a reality show, including using it as a platform for their advocacy, educating viewers, or just wanting to be famous, but the biggest draw was probably the money they received – they were often paid to share their stories or expose their lives to the public. Reportedly, the cast of “Street Outlaws” could each earn $20,000 to $30,000 per episode. Since their paychecks weren’t revealed to the public, it wasn’t known who was paid the most, or the least. Many wondered if the amount they received was based on who was part of the show the longest, or the most popular. It could also vary depending on the TV ratings each season, which would dictate the terms during contract renewal. Considering that “Street Outlaws” had been airing for 18 seasons, with each season having at least eight to more than 20 episodes, it appeared that the cast made serious cash year after year. Those of the original show could also be seen in the spin-off series such as “Street Outlaws: No Prep Kings” and “Street Outlaws: Fastest in America,” so that would have to be additional income for them. “Street Outlaws” cast net worth As the reality show became a huge hit, it meant that its stars gained popularity as well. It didn’t necessarily mean that they would all become rich, because it would depend on various reasons including how much they were being paid for their participation, or how many episodes they appeared in. However, it opened a lot of opportunities for them to generate more income. As such, many were curious about how wealthy they had become. Here’s the estimated net worth of the cast members as of November 2022, according to an authoritative source: Big Chief, Ryan Martin, and Sean “Farmtruck” Whitley each had a net worth of $2 million. Jeff “AZN” Bonnett’s net worth was $1 million, Daddy Dave’s was around $900,000, while Murder Nova and Monza had about $500,000 each. Some of the cast had come a long way from earning a few hundred bucks during their street racing days before the TV series began airing. It seemed that as long as people continued to be obsessed with car racing, the network would continue to order new episodes, and its stars could make more money.

According to the lawsuit, issues with Richard Rawlings had already arisen five years ago, even before the bar near his Gas Monkey Garage had opened for business. The legal dispute between Gas Monkey Garage and Richard Rawlings has gained widespread attention. Gas Monkey Garage filed a $6 million lawsuit against Rawlings in 2019, alleging breach of contract, fraud, and unjust enrichment. The company claimed that Rawlings violated a licensing agreement by promoting a competing establishment in Dallas, despite a non-compete clause in his contract. Additionally, the lawsuit accused Rawlings of diverting business opportunities from Gas Monkey Garage and mishandling company funds. Rawlings denied the allegations and countersued Gas Monkey Garage for breach of contract, claiming unpaid compensation for his appearances on "Fast N' Loud" and other associated projects. The legal battle continues, and its outcome remains uncertain. However, the conflict has clearly strained the previously close relationship between Rawlings and his former business partners.

The sport of drag racing is known for its dramatic moments. To the uninitiated bystander, it may seem like a simple matter of two cars racing in a straight line for a few seconds. However, the reality is that there are countless variables that can affect the outcome of the race and leave one or both racers feeling upset. In this particular instance, we take a closer look at the feud that arose between two experienced racers, Shawn Ellington, also known as Murder Nova and Robin Roberts. Normally, Ellington and Roberts are on good terms, but a recent incident caused tensions to flare. The starting line in drag racing is governed by strict rules and etiquette. Each racer must stage their vehicle correctly and within a certain time frame. If one racer fails to do so, they risk being disqualified from the race. In this case, Ellington believed that Roberts had staged his vehicle correctly and was ready to race. However, it turned out that Roberts' wife had inadvertently activated the staging lights with her foot, which led to confusion and frustration for Ellington. As he waited for Roberts to make his move, Ellington's own car was put under strain, which could have affected his performance in the race. Unfortunately for Ellington, he ended up losing the race, possibly due to the confusion at the starting line. To see how the drama unfolded in full, be sure to tune in to Street Outlaws: No Prep Kings. Video by Discovery Australia
