    That car really scoots!  I confused as the hood says "340 Wedge" but the engine sure didn't look like 340 ci.

    Needs to be street legal to be on street outlaws. 

    That's one fast race car.  !!

    I am pretty positive the cars that are raced on street outlaws are not street legal.   :clueless:

    I could be wrong, but I thought the premise of the show was that these cars are street legal.  Doesn't mean they go cruise in them, but they could. 

    I better look into that more before I talk more.

    Most of the cars Aren't street legal, only a few have license plates, that's why they always say "we have the fastest STREET RACING cars in the world" instead of "the fastest street cars in the world"

    Anyone know what the minimum specs are for a street legal car?  Or what would make it illegal?  It may vary state by state but I would think there is a somewhat of a standard minimum.

    Boy this will open up a whole new can of worms.....     :smilielol: 

    My idea of a street car is one that is insured as a street car that is driven on the street, has a current state license plate, all functioning lights, and it runs on pump gas........
