Review of Street Outlaws

This is too scripted to be enjoyable. The actual races aren't illegal, and the police and their supposed "street racing task force" rarely do anything but warn the racers, regardless of how obvious it is that the test runs on the open public roads are actually illegal (unless those are performed on closed roads too?).

I'd love to know if any of these racers ever pay taxes on their winnings. Maybe the money is considered salary for the show and is regulated by the producers?

All in all, the concept gets repetitive and old pretty fast. I don't know how this show lasted as long as it did. I'm even more surprised that this show had - several! - spin-off shows!
