When I had surgery and was down for two weeks I admit to watching "street outlaws".
Like most 'reality' (I use the term loosely) shows it start to wear thin and easy to see how it is scripted.
First big flaw in the show is there is nothing 'street' about the cars they race... roll cage, wheelie bars, parachutes, trailering their cars to the races.
The second and HUGE flaw is they are encouraging street racing/law breaking... I guess they get around that with the disclaimer at the beginning of each show.
I'm also guessing this will (should) be the end of the show.
The driver of the other vehicle in the race, Irael Valenzuela, 39, of Los Angeles, was sentenced Monday to one year in jail and five years' formal probation, according to the district attorney's office.
Valenzuela entered a no contest plea Dec. 22 to two felony counts of vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence.
Valenzuela, who has appeared on the Discovery Channel's street racing show "Street Outlaws," was racing Balyan in a Nissan GTR.
