(New York) – Buckle up, because America’s best street racers are behind the wheel for an all-new season of Discovery’s hit series STREET OUTLAWS. After last season’s confusion and conflict, the 405 bands together to update the rules guiding the most contentious street races in the nation and to shake up “The List,” leaving every man for himself. Discovery kicks it into high-gear with a 2-hour STREET OUTLAWS season premiere on Monday, May 28 at 8pm ET/PT. New episodes continue on Discovery’s Motor Mondays at 9pm ET/PT.

Oklahoma City is home to some of the most skilled underground racers in the country, but the racing scene in America is bigger than ever before. Now, the 405 has to step it up or get left behind. The 2-hour premiere gathers 32 racers from across the country for a Cash Days race, and the OKC Outlaws will have to defend their territory and lay it all on the line until one racer walks away with the title and the massive $50,000 prize.

Once the dust has cleared, the 405 crew agrees that both the rules and “The List” are in need of an overhaul. They decide to shake things up and start fresh, having everyone battle it out for new spots – giving those that were at the bottom a chance to bypass others and top the list. Under the 405’s updated rules, racers can rely only on themselves and their rides to win the most competitive races of their lives. The contest for 405’s finest is fierce and fast, and only few will make it to the top – if they’re lucky enough to make “The List” at all.

The new season and past seasons of STREET OUTLAWS will be available to stream on the multiplatform Discovery GO app – free with their paid TV subscription.

STREET OUTLAWS is produced for Discovery Channel by Pilgrim Media Group, with Craig Piligian and Sam Korkis executive producing. For Discovery Channel, Craig Coffman and Todd Lefkowitz are executive producers, and Lindsay Malinchak is coordinating producer.
